And you base that on what? What do you pay for a pill? How do you know it’s over exaggerated?

+1 Tooks.

If you are paying 25 – 30$ per pill or less then it is most likely a dodgy, locally made speed bomb, k-pill or weak MDMA pill.

When ppl are paying around 28$ per pill when buying in lots then it can be safely said that the pills would be imported and of higher quality. I would not touch them these days as they are not a patch on what was going around in 2000 and never will be again.

Actually there are pills going around right now that are as good as the stuff you used to get. One particular pill was recently tested at 122mg MDMA.

It’s usually the weed figures that are distorted as they measure it in pounds including the whole tree, roots dirt n all.

Well known misconception…

Also, why debate the street value, 700 pills is still 700 pillls off the street – and thats a good thing right ?

Who cares how much the dealer would have made, doesn’t take long doing seizures for the property office to realse that 700 pills off the street is a bloody good thing..After all, these things arent exactly made in labs with stringent quality control processes to protect the manufacturer and end user.

Yeah I dont really understand why the emphasize it so much anyway, I’m sure it’s to convince people it’s having more of an effect than it really is by using ‘big numbers’.

Police are always going to give you street retail value, not wholesale amounts. This is actually fairly accurate for a change. It’s usually the weed figures that are distorted as they measure it in pounds including the whole tree, roots dirt n all.

So actually pricing drugs would seem to be impossible. The police always seem to offer a street value that is actually just an invented figure for the press release. I cant see any actual purpose beyond providing propaganda. Beyond a mechanism or scale for a press release, why include an arbitrary cash figure. What actual purpose does it serve?

If you used the police figures, then drug dealing would seem to be a profitable business. Maybe there could be a disclaimer attached saying the figures included have no actual relation to the potential cash worth.

Why are the police pricing drugs in press releases?

Tooks what are you insinuating. Not the often maligned baggy slut. Its usually drug users that draw the distinction. So I prefer to pay for drugs with other peoples money. Its a personal preference. It a lot cheaper that way. Saves all kinds of hassle. You should try it.

Take the cash out of drugs and you have a new playing field.

I just steal my drugs. Much easier and cheaper.

So sorry. Not sarcasm. Just a comment about the “bulk” bag. It can be highly prized, especial when gifted.

Its good you don’t know this s*** PBO. How much cash can you get?

After November 1st people will have to bring their own re-usable green bags when purchasing drugs.

No dealer is going to want to bring the heat down on themselves by supplying plastic bags once the ban comes into force.

green bags

boom boom

Forde is Canberra new crime capital, I think they have 40+ criminal offences per thousand bods.

The police may have managed to stop as many as 2000 gratuitous sexual acts, 4000 hours of strange rhythmical movements to music and endless hours of soppy talk. Or if the pills where crap, a lot of bitter disappointment. The figures start to stack up.

Is that how you pay for yours? Most just pay with cash.

LOL! +1

$30 a pill is about the going rate, or so I’m told.

I can’t see the problem with the police using a figure like this.

Unless we have some expert drug valuers on RA?

Nothing. You just have to “put out” occasionally. The bag the pills come in also represents good value.

“potential street value of 20K”….. maybe if every pill head in canberra wanted to buy at the same time and these were the only ones left….

I wonder if the police ever update there supply and demand list for such substances?

It’s traditional to charge the cops more for theirs, has been since the War on Drugs began.

700 pills with a “street value” in excess of $20,000 is over $28 a pill.

What “street” are they talking about?

What do you pay per pill? Depending on quality, people will pay $30+

You’re obviously paying less than that?

I’m not a fan myself, but the price does seem a bit ridiculous nevertheless.

This isn’t even taking into account the fact that a large amount of drugs like this aren’t sold individually, they’d more likely be sold in bulk lots to people down the chain who would them sell them off (and would get a wholesale discount and then jack up the individual price in order to turn a profit).

Perhaps someone could swing past Costco and see what they’re charging?

You probably couldn’t get bags of under 1000 pills at Costco…

Mr_Clapp, what’s exaggerated?
