each piece has a weight in grams and the percentage on the ticket.
If you ask for the days price per gram for say 70% (probably most common)as long as you take a calculator along, you can price things up yourself using the marked weight multiplied by the price per gram and then converted back to your own currency.
A word of warning though....if you find something that you like, get a biz card from that shop with details on it.
Many of the places look the same, and it can be hard to find whatever it was when you decide to go back!!
