Aussies Create Internet Drug Network
January 28th, 2009 by Perry
Using a social-networking site, Australians have created a way to monitor and exchange information about the international drug market. One of the first things it led to was a realization of how high a price the largest island nation was paying for drugs.
Among a few of the prices listed in US Dollars ($):
- Weed: ~15/gram; ~40/eighth; ~70/quarter
- Speed: ~50/2.5pts; ~100/half gram; ~180/gram; ~500/8Ball
- Ice: ~100/2.5pts; ~200/half gram; ~400/gram
- Heroin: ~50/street cap
- Ecstasy: ~20/pill; ~100/5 pills; ~160/10 pills; ~900/100 pills
- GHB: ~3.50/a mil
The forum also has several rules about what you can and can’t say to keep this cyber operation on the narrow edge of what’s considered legal in the land down unda.
