We didn't establish that the prices have gone up because of vendor greed. As to talking about global index...lol..that has ZERO to do with how vendors price things. I do not know why it is so hard for some of you to understand this. ...We set our prices based on the market for them! That is it. It has NOTHING to do with IRL prices. I believe that I get more per pill on SR then I do IRL. But there is a ton more work and a lot more overhead. Also something that you(plecks) and the rest of the complaining buyers in this post have failed to address and is a fact ....that is more important then everything I have said............THE PRICES FOR OPIATES HAVE GONE DOWN ON SR IN THE LAST 6 MO!!!!! There has been more suppliers. When I first started vending 7 mo ago..Roxicodone was $60 each for a 30mg. The market dictates the price. Period. And the market for Rx opiates is bigger then the availability. It is the hottest market on SR. I think weed is the biggest and the easiest thing to get. On here and real life. But hands down Rx opiates are the hottest item for USA buyers.There are vendors across the pond that don't even know what Roxicodone is.They had to be explained what they are in the vendor forum. They had no clue.It is a great thing to be vending Rx. I am very lucky to have the access I do. Again I understand supply and demand, it seems though no one wants to talk about that. The few people that have posted in this thread have yet to admit that in fact vendors could charge more. That the demand is that high. That they themselves can't afford a drug they desperately want. And that other can. And it is not just "junky's". And even if it is just junky's...who cares..Their btc is the exact same. Another person posted how he is addicted and he can't stop. He has a problem. But the answer is not for us to lower prices. Again since some of you reading this have not read everything...I am in no way defending anything. I am just a vendor giving you MY reasons and telling you that I could charge more. I think that is a great thing! I understand these post and I have no problems telling the truth..That I make a lot of profit on these pills. If there was one drug that should be lower it is weed. It is strange to me how high prices still are. With all the legalization for medical weed. I thought prices would go down. And in here it seems quality weed is high for a 1/4. So is coke. So is heroin. And there is good reason for it. You can come in here and click a few buttons and have a stealth package arrive at your door in less then 24 hours! That is awesome!!! If you really think about it prices are really low. It should not even be compared to IRL. What I find strange also is how people bring up how cheep things are IRL. If that is the case....by them there!!! Of course I know that is not the case. And I know most people simply don't even know where to get Rx IRL. They can get weed. They can't get Rx. And if they do...it is a few pills. You can come in here and order 300 Roxicodone and have them tomorrow!!! You can't do that IRL. When this thread started out, I thought the OP just wanted to hear the real answer from an actual vendor. That they were not angry. That they were just frustrated they could not afford something they wanted. And they wanted to know how we got our prices. I think I have been more transparent in this then any other vendor I have seen in a thread. I make no apologies for having a hot item. And having a drug that is very hard to get. Silk Road is awesome! Bit coin is awesome. I love this place. You should too.
