$50 for 0.1g of meth, $400+ for 1g.
No wonder our meth addicts cause so much crime.
Where are you in Aus? I'm in Tasmania where everything costs even more than the rest of Aus and it's heaps cheaper than that down here.
You're getting robbed, mang.

Quote:
Police reported recovering nearly 3 pounds of cocaine powder, more than 5 ounces of marijuana, more than 8 pounds of crystal methamphetamine, $73,629 cash, two rifles, one pistol and other drug paraphernalia.
The estimated street value of the drugs was $129,500 for the cocaine powder, based on $100 a gram; $2,000 for the marijuana, based on $400 an ounce; and $749,800 for the crystal methamphetamine, based on $200 a gram. The total value of the drugs was estimated at $881,300.
$100/g coke ??? $200/g meth ???
Really??? Are they really worth that much? I have never touched either of those chemicals, but those prices seem fucking ludicrously expensive!!!
Was hoping to some opinions.... I'm not asking for the prices of drugs in your areas. How over-valued (or not?) were the drugs in this bust, according to the local police?
coke i can get for 50 a gram. i'm sure its been cut a couple times though.
this other guy sells it for 90 a gram and its so impure that i refuse to buy it anymore. feel like i'm blowing nail polish remover 
don't know about meth

My favorite is when they bust a grow and estimate the value of the seized MJ based upon the wet weight of the entire plant.

they over exaggerate the prices to make themselves look better
"this bust involved 728 billion dollars worth of illegal drugs!"
-------------------- "If we could sniff or swallow something that would, for five or six hours each day, abolish our solitude as individuals, atone us with our fellows in a glowing exaltation of affection and make life in all its aspects seem not only worth living, but divinely beautiful and significant, and if this heavenly, world-transfiguring drug were of such a kind that we could wake up next morning with a clear head and an undamaged constitution - then, it seems to me, all our problems (and not merely the one small problem of discovering a novel pleasure) would be wholly solved and earth would become paradise." - Aldous Huxley
