Yes. If they are selling you drugs, they are “drug dealing”

Answer by Jeff Alcott
Technically, it would be “Possession with intent to distribute.” The wording on the title of the crime, as well in the paragraphs in the criminal code, is worded so that monetary gain is not needed.

Basically, if you have weed, and you plan on it leaving you and going to someone else, whether they pay or not, is Possession with intent to distribute.

Each state has different laws. So unless you can tell how much weed, and what state….cant help ya with a penalty.
