I understand that vendors need to make their profit.. but do they really need to make THAT much profit off of (maybe) 100mic doses?!

First of all! Good looks to Del Ellis, Mike.Murphy, Dr. Amsterdam and Gamely54 for selling L the way it was meant to be sold::
With a minimal profit margin- and MAXIMUM customer ego-loss and eternal satisfaction ;D
Just wanted to post to see how many of you guys are questioning this along with me and my crew.
I know it's a vendors market but c'mon guys.. don't be greedy, at least with the L. People need this stuff, it's a lot more than just a recreational substance.

Thanks for reading.
All of you have a great week.

Yeah but what can you do..... supply and demand.

it's not only the L, look at weed prices. i live in an area where weed is very very very expensive but the prizes here on SR seem even more overpriced to me, why do people want to rob all the people that just want to smoke some herb?
overprice the heroin and the cocaine for fucks sake but leave the weed alone >:(

Dude, there are a LOT of fucking weed listings up.
The good prices for decent bud are there, but you really have to dig through them to find the best deals.
Try Pot2Peer, his prices are ridiculously good.. (ae $170 for an ounce of A- shit.)
And I can personally vouch for his stuff, killer, killer, killer!

almost all vendors that price their strips at 120-150 usually sell bulk listings at amazing price. you just have to ask them. understand that with any commodity, the more you buy the less you pay.

There are 2 ways of thought when it comes to LSD:
1. Understanding that you have one of the most beautiful substances available on the planet and you want to share it with every person you come into contact with that wants to see the light, so you spread it for a reasonable markup.
2. Understanding that you have this molecule that people will pay almost anything for given it's rarity so you charge out the ass for it because you feel you 'can'.
While nobody is going to do this work for free to random strangers on the internet. (I say this because I would do it for free for random strangers IRL.) You must take a little profit for yourself while not being too greedy. Some people see SR as a gold mine where they could never imagine charging such prices IRL. In a utopian society this bullshit wouldn't be possible, however in this underground market scumbags are far too eager to overcharge for something so precious. The truly unfortunate part is L is actually so scarce people are forced to pay these absurd prices :(
I personally don't mark up my L as much as any other product I have ever sold. I would sell pills at about 40-50% mark-up because they are evil and I really didn't want to be selling them, bud at around 25% increase because of the risk involved with smell. L is the least risky to traffic, no smell flat piece of paper. It's like fucking dropping water into the Pacific Ocean. Nobody is ever gonna notice unless they know exactly the moment you make that drop. IRl I sell my L for about a 10% mark up to regular customers and I give friends my price. I never have been about making money from L as much as other drugs. L is more of a medicine to me than cannabis even so this is probably why also.

Overprice the smack by all means yeah, but don't overprice the Blow! That's blasphemy! Blow is a beautiful thing if you have GOOD QUALITY product and you are responsible with it. LET THERE BE BLOW FOR ALL! LET THE HEAVENS OPEN AND MAY IT SNOW ALL YEAR! :D

Its called only greedy lsd dealers will sell on here because i know chemists who could churn the best stuff out permanently on here for the standard 5 GBP a hit and then 2.50 GBP a hit for the best stuff around but none of us want to because we only deal with people face to face from whom we know as we want to know whoses hands it is going into end of story =D
Fuck it dude. Change the world. Convince those chemists and your buddies to get their shit on here ASAP ;)
-
seriously... i've been wanting some lsd for a long time but it's always so expensive. you'd think there'd be more for reasonable prices considering the demand around here. need more lsd vendors!

I havent bought acid in years, It just always gets given to me, more often than i can count in the last two years, the supply is back honestly. I talked to someone on superbowl weekend that was buying vials at 85 a pop. And that was really really clean fluff. But even taking in for fees (which are reasonable given the brilliance of this site, imo) 150 a strip is outrageous, especially given the ease of shipment.
props though to all vendors who make the choice to do this, and let us not forget, the market will only charge as much as people are willing to pay...

There's no such thing as "greed" in a free marketplace in the way that people are using it. That word is so overused and always out of proper context. If a vendor is really greedy with his product, he won't be able to stay in business and the competition will drive him out. If other vendors want a bigger market share, one of the big ways they can get it is by offering their product at a lower price.
It's the same nonsense people cry about when disasters hit and people "price gouge" in the area or when people raise rent prices. Supply is limited and demand is high and so prices are high. It's a two way street. Instead of blaming the "greedy vendors" why not blame the "greedy buyers"? They are affecting the price just as much. Because they are willing to buy large amounts at very high prices the vendors will sell them at those prices.
Basic basic basic basic basic basic economics. Not "greed". /rant
That being said, I haven't bought any lsd because I also think the prices are too high. I'm holding out and hoping for the best. =D

I have the opportunity to make a lot of quality mushrooms, but I'm on another continent and this will confuse all customers.
But the price would be acceptable, even lower than 1.0 BTC per gram of product.
After a while, I will build interesting grow-report (Psilocybe cubensis)
