Title: Why is Adderall so expensive?
Post by: Instruct on May 30, 2012, 11:38 pm
It seems to me that adderall is very expensive. I can get 1 pill for $5, maybe 2 of 30mg pills, I can only get 1 ten mg pill for like 15 here. Just kinda confused.

A form of supply and demand, the sellers are selling a product that, in many cases, people cannot get anywhere else.  So they can pretty much charge whatever they want and people will still buy it because they have no other options.  Sellers can charge that much because there is no competition for customers.  This place needs one or two good vendors with cheap supply willing to do the work and not willing to get pushed out.  A price war would be a great thing for this place, and a vendor with cheap, reliable product would destroy the competition, or at least for vendors to lower their prices.

Its down to what people will pay really.

Some here struggle others have more money than sense and would not think nothing of spending a few hundred BTC.

I agree the Adderall are too expensive but the drug companies the make them are like mafias with price fixing. The pilss cost a bout a cent to make I bet! Yet when bought on prescription they go up hundreds of times in price!!!

Its what the drug companies do best.

With drugs its what people will pay. People pay STUPID prices for some drugs and as long as they keep doing that the dealers will keep charging more and more.

It is cheaper for me to buy a gram of coke than enough Adderall to last a day and night!!

A gram of top speed goes for 2.5 BTC right now. that is the equivalent to a few dozen of those pills!

Or find an RC that is way cheaper.

Adderall is just 100% pure - if you get the right one. Its faked a LOT and they fake it VERY good! Hard to see how anyone from Eng;and would ever know they just had some Adderall.

Tried to buy it a few times but the vendor takes days to process it so I usually cancel.

too expensive for me but got to try it some time!!

In the US picking up Adderall is getting more difficult if you have a prescription.  I know a couple of buddies who have one and most places they go to don't have them in stock.  The drug companies are blaming the FDA, the FDA is blaming the drug companies.  In my opinion it is the drug companies creating the scarcity so they can keep the prices higher.

As for the prices on here, it is all supply and demand.  Right now, I am helping people sling their extra ones and I have to keep them high.  Hopefully I can get my own script soon (Yay insurance!) and I will be dumping them out for a much more reasonable price than what is here currently.
