[Vendor/MarketInquiry] 10/325 Generic Hydrocodone (USA made/generic norco) wanted?

I have been "vending" locally my scripts for a little while, but noticed the price and oppurtunity to minimize my risk with face-to-face deals, and maximize my profits, however most of what i see are the indian made knock-offs, not any real opiate narcotic hydrocodones, some chemical that starts with a t and is sources from india...

Anyway, i seen a few listings once in a blue moon for 10-15$/pill for the 10-325 Generic Norco's...I was curious if this is a fairly regular price and if vending these on a market would be desired...if so perhaps i'll pick it up :)

Yes, assuming US pharm raised, norco trades in that range. $15 is a bit high and haven't seen it quite that high but I'd say at this point in time, $12-14 is not uncommon and people buy at these prices. There are some vendors that do sell in the $10 range but I don't see that price a whole lot anymore. The $10-12 range I'd expect for larger orders, say in the 40+ pill count range.

But norco sells. And even at the ranges you talk about, vendors sell out fast. I know bc I dabble in the norco arts (strictly as a consumer and connoisseur) and vendors have trouble keeping stock. If you held in the $12 range you'd sell quick once you established yourself. Hell, maybe even if you haven't. Its not the easiest to find when you need it.

Another note: while there are many Indian knockoffs there are a number of vendors who do sell legit US stuff. But there aren't too many. The knockoffs are generally priced much cheaper and don't think any claim to be us pharmacy sourced but you are right about the problem with them putting something else in them. It's more often than once in a blue moon. There are a handful of vendors that do sell us sourced norco but like I said, it's a small number of vendors and there is def room for more

Last I paid was $6.50 a 10mg norco around 6 months ago (ordered 10). I dabble in opiates around 1-2 times a year.

subz4daze had a good point in a reply - depending on the quantity you get, it may or may not be worth selling on the markets. There is a vendor bond which can be sizeable and unless you have decent quanitty and plan on selling for a while, it may not be worth it. Really all depends on what quantities you are looking at and whether you can continue getting it.

Also, there are additional expenses when dealing online that you should take into account. One problem is BTC fluctuations, you can get fucked by that, BUT since your margins are so high, this probably won't be a huge problem for you. If your margins were only a few dollars, those fluctuations could mean the different b/w profit and loss.

Another challenge you may have is availability and the type of customer base you would be serving. While I'm sure there are the casual Norco users who won't go through w/d's if they can't find it, there are many who are dependent on these. If you are offering them at the same premium that other vendors sell them for, especially other vendors who have a consistent supply that is highly available, you may run into problems. I have a go to vendor for my Norco supply. He isn't the cheapest all the time - sometimes I'll find a listing from another vendor cheaper - BUT he has a good supply of them and I know when I need them, more likely than not he will have them. As such, I continue ordering from him, even if there happens to be a cheaper listing. For me, I'd rather have an established relationship with a vendor who happens to be more expensive but can and will re-up often enough so that he has them when I need them. This is more important to me than saving a buck or two a pill. Its very expensive (not to mention painful) for me to go through withdrawals.

So I guess what I'm trying to say is, if you want to charge at the upper end for Norco, you will not only have the challenge of being a brand new, untested, vendor but will also have the challenge of competing with vendors who do have big supplies of it. Obviously, if you lower your prices below that competition you will easily find enough people to buy them up. Being a new vendor you may need to charge lower to build up a rep. But even once you do get your rep, if you don't have the supply (b/c the demand is pretty damn high), you would still need to compete with people's go-to vendors. People with opioids habits have to have a stable connect. I'm not saying you won't be able to sell at the higher tiered pricing, but those are some things to be aware of. Opioid clientele is a demanding and interesting bunch.

Hopefully what I said made sense. I can clarify if needed.
