 Cocaine, one of the sellers told him, was $4 for three grams – which, if in Brazilian Real, converts to about $AU1.22 – which stunned Karter. “Bro, in London – I was working in London — guess how much this would cost? (For) three grams of cocaine?” he asked the gangster in return. “Tell me how much!” the man replied. “Around $200,” Karter said, or about $AU374. In other words, according to the YouTuber’s calculations: three grams of cocaine in London cost 50 times more than cocaine in a Brazilian ghetto. That is a 5000 per cent price increase. The revelation also stunned the drug trader, who made an astonishing suggestion to Karter: “You should buy it from here then and sell it in Europe!” https://nypost.com/2023/05/15/traveller-unveils-wild-cost-of-drugs-in-open-air-markets-in-brazilian-slums/ |

Well duh. The cost isn't for the product itself. It's for all the work required to smuggle it. Same applies to any illegal product.

Even with borderline slave labor in a 3rd world jungle the inputs are more than that. There is a reason cocaine is expensive when compared to other illicit drugs despite being one of the easiest to transport. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: How much for a 2 liter? Exactly! It shows how boring and law abiding I am, not to mention being almost completely ignorant about foreign cultures, that when I read the thread title I instantly assumed it was about something like Mexican Coke, made with real sugar. I can’t and don’t want to think in terms of metric units but three grams didn’t sound like a lot. I clicked on the thread because I wanted to see the miniature can or bottle and learn how in the world anyone could quench their thirst with a thimble full of soda. |
