Whats wrong with adderall?

Checking on Agora I'm seeing people paying $20 for 30mg of adderall? Why?

Adderall is one of the most common drugs out there, you can walk up to any kid with ADHD and buy it off them for $5 max. With DNM's generally having much cheaper than street prices I expected a dollar at most for 30mg. What causes the adderall on markets to be so high priced?

Those kids aren't on the darknet flooding the market with their cheap pills.

Yeah I wish...here in Europe there's no Adderall to be found anywhere.

Because only in the US do they hand it out like candy. I think it's for international buyers.

Adderall 30mg for 5 bucks? It costs more than that from the fuckin pharmacy. Especially the XRs.

I sell it for about 8/per. So nowhere near the usual $20 price. I'm not sure why anyone would pay 20 bucks for one pill. I'm on Agora if anyone is interested I will be reupped on the 31st.

I'm an anti-social computer science major who's desperate to get passing grades for the semester. Meaning it's difficult for me to ask someone who I suspect has ADHD, "Hey can I buy adderall off of you?"

Low supply, high demand on the DNMs too! $20 / 30mg from a good vendor is good enough for me if it means passing a semester that I paid $1k+ for!

Do you have the slightest clue how expensive that stuff is to get from a pharmacy without insurance?

That's why.

It is also only covered up to 60 units/month per person by most insurance companies, so you need to get a lot of people together to get any good amount of adderall at a reasonable price

It may be from individuals taking it since they were young.

It's also region-dependent, and more concentrated in elite settings, not so much otherwise in rural America, the 20% number is a reflection of your selection bias.

I drove 2.5 hours round trip to pickup a physical copy of my Adderall prescription, which I had gone through a few doctors to get, primary care to psychometrist to psychiatrist, who didn't prescribe it, then to two more.

Then, I dropped the actual prescription off at a WalMart, where they destroyed the prescription thinking it was fake without verifying it, to the chagrin of my extraordinarily busy MD. So I went and got it again, and Walgreens refilled it no problem, as did a Mom and Shop --- except when they are out due to nationwide shortages.

I rarely encounter individuals that discuss their ADHD at length and the specific prescription they take - let alone solicit drugs from them.

The drug itself? Didn't actually help me.

TLDR: If Adderall was easy to acquire, the price would be lower.

You can find it for less than $10 on some markets

They only produce adderall in the USA, and a bit in Canada. That would be why, because you have internationals that will pay top dollar.

If one kid gets prescribed adderall at college and his five little friends with no tolerance want to buy some, there will be supply in resaonable amounts locally. DNM is globally available, so it attracts all of the people with ridiculous tolerances that need 50mg to "get their day going, ya know" vs 30mg="holy shit am I rolling"?
