Why is LSD so expensive on silk road? I have noticed some of the other drugs being a little higher than street price and some being cheaper than street price. But the LSD prices seem way higher than the street prices in the US. Cheapest sheet is like $475 and thats about 175 more than street price.

Good luck!

Because the nature of silkroad adds a premium to the products being offered and with the avengers guaranteeing real quality acid i feel that the premium is well worth it. Finding acid on the street is like finding a unicorn

its not too hard to find on the street if you know where to look
-
I've always been told that "true" LSD is extremely hard to find on the street. I would imagine you're paying extra for the guarantee that the shit you're getting is legit.
I'm hardly an expert on LSD though.
-

It's pretty annoying with 25i and 25c being passed off as LSD.
-
many vendors have the highest quality lsd for $7 a pop lab and user tested which is probably cheaper than any street price you can get plus way better L
-
7 dollars a hit is what I would normally sell mine for and can't really sell it for more than that where I am.

haha yea i agree with this dude all i ever find in my area is RC and fake shit
havnt found any unicorns yet
-
Very hard for alot of people to get there hands on pure LSD, so I guess the vendors take advantage of that and up there prices :o
-
I agree
-
LSD on the road isn't too expensive in my opinion. In my area, I've never come across genuine LSD. I've only found DOI and 2c-i/2c-5. For a little extra I can know it's real stuff on SR.
Oh, and you can get 10 hits of ~200ug lsd from Tessellated for $140. That's $14/tab. That's a nice price imo.
-
street lsd is no longer lsd.. tis a tragedy of the times.
I don't paying for example $14 a hit of acid, as long as it's real.
However, I think this pretty much kills the market of sharing it with the world.. It's impossible to match prices of 2ci or other RC.
-
personally, i dont think many of the listings are far off from street prices
-
It depends, occasionally you can get a sheet for around 500 which aint too bad, however if you have real connections irl sheets can be as low as 250-300 for 100ug wow
-
Im fine with my lsd vendor :)
-
whos ur vendor
-
all the old dudes i talk say that acid was a dollar a hit back in the day and around 25-30 dollars a sheet... the dollar has become at the bare minimum four time that now but that is still nice... think the reason for selling acid went from sharing the experience to making money (for smack possibly =P jk ---->) as the dead followers have diminished... remember they were responsible for a great deal of it... not sure if im misinformed but this has always been my thought... most times i come across real stuff i pay 15... i suppose its the Unicorn Tax =)
-
Acid on the road IS more expensive than most would expect. But hey, there are plenty of reasons why.
Reason 1:
The price is still really good! You can get $15 a tab and lower. For an 8 hour, mind expanding trip that's not bad at all. Think about how much coke costs for how long it lasts.
Reason 2:
LSD is a fragile molecule :(. Unfortunately pretty much everything in the world hates LSD (poor guy). Most water (due to chlorine, impurities, etc) destroys it instantly. Air destroys it, heat destroys it, even light destroys it. I would say time does as well but any decent physicist would yell at me and tell me entropy destroys everything (and that time doesn't really exist). This means you have to sell fast, in bulk, and ship properly. These, unfortunately, contribute to higher costs and thus higher prices.
Reason 3:
The stuff you're getting is probably a much higher quality than you can find on the street. Most sellers here truly pride themselves on the quality of their products. You are much more likely to get exactly what you paid for instead of a cut, or substituted product. Word of mouth has a lot more impact here than it does on the street, giving the buyer a lot more power than they would have otherwise. Price goes up with quality.
Reason 4:
Overhead. It costs money to sell on SR. You pay a modest fee, you have to deal with scammers, and you don't have a small contingency of assholes that you can rip off to increase your profit margins. You also have to pay to ship, and your money is probably tied up in escrow for a while.
Reason 5:
People are (usually) trying to make a profit. A lot of the super cheap LSD dealers you hear about are motivated by values that aren't based on profit. They see it as a moral obligation to distribute LSD as a pseudo-non-profit organization. I'm as cynical as the next guy but when you see people at festivals wandering around offering free doses en masse it becomes pretty evident.
For all of these reasons LSD is a little more expensive than the tiny prices some people have heard rumored on the streets. This is, however, a very pure, competitive market. These prices are representative of one of the (few?) ways capitalism can be a good thing. So hey, try out some of the stuff here for yourself. If a seller gets enough volume they can drop their prices.
-
Lsd is farely rare. Not gonna have 5$ tabs anymore.
-
The streets are flooded with RC's. Its a shame. If you want the best LSD. Jesusofrave.
-
Because on SR it is built upon knowing you get pure product only.Cutting middlemen everywhere and their low street prices. So its fortunate and unfortunate presumably.
-
it looks like most stuff is a little above street price,
some deals to be had but rule of thumb is
you get what you pay for,unless you make a habit of ripping yourself off
thats just my opinion
-
Recently because of the avengers things have gotten better. My first order on SR was an Unknown RC sold by a member with good stats who did not know it was RC to begin with he never had it tested. Just makes you think how many people on the street pay this cheaper price for god knows what chemical. At least here there are people setup to test and recommend to prevent people being ripped off. Since the avengers started so far I have been satisfied and happy. Puts your mind at ease at least it's been randomly tested throughout the vendors time on SR. There are daily updates most of the time. Buy from any of the star vendors and you are safe, they all have to follow escrow (according to avengers requirements to b recognized as STAR status) and if you have to order from an ok vendor, read reviews and use best judgment, if your savvy enough to get on SR then take some time and read before rushing into things. Have a swell day :)

Can someone explain to me exactly who the Avengers are and what they do to a point?
I have heard of them but do they run pages? shut people down? write reviews?

because it's transported through time itself!
-
I'll say this, Oxford Maine, in the US, mid eighties, outdoor dead show, tents everywhere, small dirt strip on the side of the camping area big enough so a cessna could land, and it did. There was LE there, but they were just directing traffic. The sheets there were 40$usd, if you got 10 sheets, that was 350$. From there we went back to small city, it was strips of 10 were 30$, 25 for 50, and sheets for $100. We weren't greedy, but that was our markup. Still made plenty and gave people great product. LSD should really be the cheapest drug because of the amount you get off one ounce of liquid, and the actual cost of making it. Its unreal. Get close to the chemist and you'll see what the real deal is. Even these days, the trips shouldn't cost all this money. Prices seem way high.
-
I guess it depends where your street is geographically located.
Around here you pay $20-25 per hit and it is never full strength.
The SR's LSD prices and crowd-sourced confirmation of quality looks great from this end. ;D

I havent done acid since 2000.
-
Seriously. I'm off a 25-C NBOMe trip, and it was NOTHING like acid, but had I never taken LSD before would I know the difference? No, I would not.
A reputation-based economy, where buyers are free to shop around. It's the only protection, and we have it here. Hook yourself up with a dependable vendor, anwyere. At least it's an item that is stealth-easy.
-
Hit up the "official NBOMe discussion thread" - http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=36654.0
Some good notes and summaries there. Of course, it isn't all sussed out yet, being RCs.

Hi. Last year I spent over four months looking for acid throughout the UK, and I have many contacts. After countless phone calls, and visits to old friends in many different towns and city's, I found nothing. I decided to google it, and up pops a wiki on SR, JACKPOT! If you're anything like me, you ought to think of yourself as lucky, that you can actually get it. LSD is not easy to make, it takes time.
I have bought of a couple of vendors so far, the last from Lucydrop, good acid at a reasonable price.
I hope you don't think I am being an ass with you, I just think that if you want quality, it's like everything else, you have to pay for it.
Peace.
-
expensive???? The cheapest I found in outside of the SR, for 85mcg (and I think it wasn't that strong ) is £20 a dose = $30
-
It's a seller's market? Most people who can't find it will pay a premium, however it is ridiculously expensive. It's a circle drug so you have to make the right friends which means going out and meeting people. That doesn't mean finding a dealer, because they don't have any incentive to sell you the real deal or if they're only selling strips you'll still pay a markup. If you meet the right people though you'll notice the quality of things like mdma, mda, and acid will not only increase but become very cheap. The price of acid hasn't really changed and the quality hasn't really either but after being handled and not stored properly it just degrades. My biggest pet peeve is people laying blotter with a vial. But if you look at heroin or coke for example I am sure the quality maybe better than your average street dealer here, but the same thing applies. If you're just getting dime bags how good did you think it was going to be? If you actually invest time into it though quality will go up and price will drop unless you're just too many steps removed.
-
vials used to be $50... and hits for free!
-
that aint working, thats the way you do it
vials for nothing and your hits for free

I'm gonna sing it like that from now on! LoL too funny.

Buying larger quantities often gives a better price. But storage is a bit of a problem.
-
the slight increase in price is worth the quality if purchased from the right vendor. why take the gamble on getting DOx or something else being sold as lsd?
-

Storage is a problem. I want to buy as much LSD as I can but keeping it cool, dry and in the dark is key. The stuff breaks down easy...
-
Spending all that money, shit, just order the how to make it manual from that other site and get all the shit and make it.
-
you can get $6 hits from lucydrop if you buy 50 at a time.
But more importantly, I think LSD is one of those drugs that needs a price hike. I mean, hits were 2 bucks back in the late seventies/early eighties. Then five bucks forever. Everyone still wants to pay five. But think about it. A g of coke on the street will keep you high for about 8 hrs if you're not a feind. That costs between 50 and 75 bucks. a g of weed will keep you high for about the same amount of time if it's good - still about 15 to 20 bucks. but the psycodellics like shrooms and lsd are cheap as fuck when you can find them. an oz of shrooms (which would keep me high for about three weeks) can be bought for about 200 bucks. one hit of lsd (which keeps me high for at LEAST 5 hrs) costs AT MOST $20. I think we should be willing to pay $50 per hit of LSD. it keeps you high and loving life all night and it's a wonderful love drug. if we would get off our cheap asses and pay what it's worth, I think we would find that it would suddenly become a whole lot easier to find. Imagine that?! LSD as easy to score as weed? might be worth the extra bucks, huh?
-
Theres seems to be an LSD "drought", Typically if you know the right people you should be able to get sheets for like 200-300; This also includes vials. I sadly lost my connects and am now forced to use SR to get any legitimate acid. What SR needs is someone who is higher up in the chain so we can get some decent prices on bulk LSD.
-

One hit as in one tab? At 90ug, I forced myself to try a 3 tab trip a little while ago, despite the concern that I might be blowing the evening under-dosing, knowing that added tabs will just extend but not heighten the trip. Usually I'm taking 4-5. So hopefully I'm misunderstanding and you're not suggesting I should be spending $200-$250 per trip, cause that's when I find a new drug.
-
And I used to bitch when I had to pay more than $150 for a sheet in the early 90's!

Has supply ever recovered from the Pickard bust? I was under the impression that it is difficult to manufacture, which is why one operation ended up with such a ridiculous proportion of the market.
-
It does suck that LSD is so expensive these days. Like people were saying I remember in the 90s when LSD was 5 bucks a hit or like 200 a sheet. Those were the days! But even though theres been a massive jump in price I'm still willing to pay it for the amazing experience it gives you. Paying so much does mean I'll have less LSD trips a year and thats not a big deal when cubensis mushrooms are still at reasonable prices.

what pc guy said on first page
-

Not really.. certainly not in the USA. Pickard was alleged to have had the largest operation to manufacture but there was also a big issue with the supply chain in general attributed to the death of Jerry Garcia meaning there were no more GD tours. I don't know how difficult it is to manufacture. Getting the chemicals needed is another and probably a bigger issue.
-
there are some pretty good rcs that come close to matching the LSD like experience for a fraction of the price.

Hi. You can find great storage devices at tightvac.com
They are air tight vacuum chambers, come in various sizes and are waterproof. Very reasonable prices too.
Peace.

I will pay the price for some good quality LSD.

In Oz, it is pretty cheap however it used to be cheaper on SR - currently I buy bout 500 off LD for around $8ea instead of around $5ea like it used to be. I sell them all day though for $30ea in groups of 10 so its still worth it ;)

LSD is very hard to create and even harder to source as its precursors are very very closely watched. $10-$20 a trip is quite good in comparison to other drugs, i dont know why people have an issue with this.
-
All I can find around here is 25i, and it's 15 dollars a tab. Tess's 13 dollar tabs of LSD are more than fair in my opinion.

I know :(
The dose is extremely high though. 1 hit makes your whole mouth numb and bitter tasting for hours. It's a really unpleasant experience, but the trip is so colorful and vivid, so it's kind of worth it.
-

Very Simply: I Take Way More acid in one trip than what you have probably have taken and will ever take within your whole lifetime... which since I do not have a number on your lifetime dose may or may not be exaggerated. My average dose is 20-50 hits or 2000-5000ug or 2-5mg which is literally one dose and I intend the word dose as opposed to trip because one trip might use multiple doses. I have a big issue with paying a minimum of $200 per dose which is 2-4 times the price I was accustomed to paying for full vials.
-
Im not knockin the product, but prices on sr for trips is way high. I've never seen prices this high for trips. I've been around since the 80's, seen the price climb a little, but 10$ a hit? Cmon, thats ridiculous. That is, unless someone is paying for sheets at an unusually high price too. If 'someone' were to make some, just one ounce of liquid would yield so many sheets and so many vials that even after giving away free samples you wouldn't know what to do with it all. Plus, when you control the trips in a town you control the street, as an added bonus. The real dead heads know whats up.
-
LSD isn't as commonly made as it once as plain and simple. It's just supply and demand. I have never found acid for less than $10 a hit and $80 a strip, and that acid has mostly sucked. I don't mind paying $15 a hit knowing that what I'm getting is good quality and legit.
-
In the mid to late nineties the largest manufacturer of LSD in the U.S. was arrested. It then disappeared in most parts. I am happy to see it again. College students around here and there are trying to sell theirs for twenty dollars a blotter. Bullocks! I miss the days of a quarter sheet going for fifty U.S. dollars.

good day!
we flood EU with great LSD...at crash prices.... 8)

I guess I've just been lucky that I've always gotten good acid (in person) for $5-7 a hit. But I don't have a source anymore, and I have a hard time with the prices on the road. I mean, even $8-10 a hit seems reasonable to me considering the convenience and reliability, but $15 a hit seems crazy expensive if I plan to take 2 or 3 hits at once.
