Why is MDMA so much cheaper over in Europe than in North America?

I have always gotten my mdma domestically and had never even really looked at international prices because going through customs is something I dont want to have to do. Im jsut curious as to why its cheaper over there.

Most MDMA is made in Europe and exported to the USA. You're not buying from the original source domestically, especially on Agora. People just resell shit from Europe.

Didn't someone ask this exact question a week or two ago? Anyway I don't know if I'm 100% correct but I think it has something to do with how many people produce MDMA over there. If an MDMA lab opened up in the US it would probably get shut down really quickly but I guess you're less likely to get caught over in Europe, somewhere like Amsterdam which is already kind of lax on drugs, so more people do it

Basically the reason every other drug is cheap at it's place of origin, legality. America has the best/cheapest weed in the world because the country let's them grow it, best coke comes from where the country lets them grow the coca, so on and so forth.

The first E I took, in 1988, cost £40 ($60).

Its been said that meth never took off in the UK because MDMA is so cheap and readily available. I haven't bought any for ages, but 4 or 5 years ago they were about £3 each, and the quality was good.

A massive bust in the far east created a shortage of safrole, but there are many routes to MDMA. In theory, it could be made from black pepper.

Easy answer: The raw ingredients and analogs needed are not as tightly controlled in Europe. To get the saffrole and other stuff necessary in the US, you need special licenses and have to be registered as a research institution to get those licenses in the first place, which means not just anybody can get a hold of it. Europe, and the Netherlands especially, are much more lax when it comes to their import and acquisition regulations regarding the analogs necessary for MDMA production.

Why is cocaine so much cheaper in South America than in North America?

Why do you people not have brains to think for yourselves?

Why has nobody ever heard of Google before they post on this sub?

Why does it seem most of todays drug users have no common sense?

Why do people keep asking dumb ass questions that are answered by asking the damn question itself?

The world may never know......
