A cannabis smokers club which operated without police taking any action against it is preparing to throw its doors open again.

The "Daktory" was set up in an old Auckland warehouse last November and quickly become a haunt for dope smokers and dealers. About 1500 people paid a $20 membership fee to join up.

Organisers say police knew what was going on but never bothered them.

They say the club closed down in February for reorganisation but it is expected to reopen this week.
