- Y_Y 5y agoExactly. News reports never respect the very important difference between a thousand grams and a kilo.
- netrus 5y agoI think the downvotes are unjust. For those missing the point: When large quantities of drugs are seized, often times the 'street value' of the drug is reported. But large quantities can only be found some steps removed from the end customer in the supply chain. Given the risks in distribution, the difference in retail and wholesale price can be significant.
- Y_Y 5y agoThank you, that is exactly what I meant.
- np_tedious 5y agoAgreed the downvotes are not justified. This is this clearly what parent meant and what I alluded to in preceding comment
