Some AU vendors are taking the piss but not all, I recall seeing one vendor rorting a gram of mdma for 23+ btc over the Christmas period when all others had sold out, that was blatant profiteering but no one was being forced to buy. Personally I mostly buy my mdma domestically and my coke from o/s, I only use mdma now and again and I'm happy to pay the domestic tariff for the convenience and guaranteed delivery factor. The vendor I mostly use for that also charges what is in my honest opinion a fair price. AU domestic drug prices are some of the highest on the planet, I appreciate the lengths some vendors go to getting their inventory into the country and expect to pay a premium if I want that level of service. If a vendor is taking the piss with price then I don't order, go without or take my chances with o/s. I've seen domestic vendors selling a gram of come for $500+ a gram - basically FUCK THAT! $220 for a gram of very high quality mdma that will keep me and a heap of my mates happy for the night is a fair price, back in the day aussies paid $50 a pill and were happy with that and that's going back to the mid to late 90's by the way. Drug prices down under will always be much higher than other countries due to the on average higher income earned here and the issues with importation. As someone else said earlier in this thread, supply and demand drives price, if don't like it don't buy it.
