Your answer is right here, but keep in mind there are more weed shops than no this map.....I would guess 300 plus weed shops in Pattaya....

 

I would have no problem at all calling this number a serious GLUT of weed shops...

More words screaming shrillness. How much is a glut?

    Why would number of weed shops impact anyone? If you're not into weed just ignore them and walk on by (just like people ignore Gogo bars, Gentlemens clubs and beer bars if they're not into them)

  • Should have controlled it ( licensed it ) All going to implode soon.  silly billie's

How many pharmacies are in the same area? 

How many restaurants? Count food stalls and mobile vendors. 

 

Who determines how many? The answer is profoundly simple, it is the marketplace.  If there are too many, then they will fail due to not having enough customers.  

 

If all of the Socialists that inhabit these forums would just learn about Capitalism they wouldn't bring up the question in the first place. 

 

The market will decide. 

 

Not you. 

Weed sold at inflated prices can not be compared to any other business. ....

 

Because the profit margin is HUGE....They only need to sell 4-5-6 grams a day to turn a fair profit any more sales than this is pure gravy,,,,,,

 

Yes the market will decide the correct number, but like any Gold rush maybe 5-10% will do really well a big chunk in the middle will just get by.. And a whole bunch of sellers in the bottom third wil be losing money...

The question was how is glut defined.....

When everyone is making money their is no Glut....When only 60-70-80% are making money there is a Glut...

Data not needed.....

 

Any time there is a gold rush like now with weed shops growing like mushrooms  not everbody is going to be making money...

 

Like I said before the serious smokers WILL NOT be buying from weed shops ( Thai or Farang) Pattaya does not need 300 plus weed shops to supply the. a few gram tourist buyers....

And yet

more

Perhaps these new shop owners smoked too much weed and see the world too positive... 

New one on the beach end of Pratamnak 5, that is 8 on the street now, but this one looks good

 

Large beer garden and pool area surrounded by shrubs, and a great selection of bud from B200 up to B1000. I like it, will have a beer and bud in there for sure

 

The samples are kept in those little jars with magnifying glass and light, the bud for sale is kept chilled

The market will decide that about 90% of these shops are going to disappear in the next year or so. Unlike bars, there won't be replacements for failed weed shops.

 

I don't know anyone who goes to a weed shop, I suspect that the customers are mostly tourists. Low season will be deadly for these places.

Agreed. I bought 50g from PrikPot for under 1400b. 

 

I don't smoke it, I eat it.  I used it medicinally.  I slipped a disc in my lower back that crippled me.  Sauna, Pot, and massage have brought me to 85 percent. 

 

I am the case for medical marijuana. I don't want to be high.
