Chump change compared to what some people have spent on this site. Also, most people with ridiculous buyer stats are reselling whatever they purchase locally.

Definite resellers. For the quality I'd get on the road, I'd pay about $20-$25/g in my area, which is not uncommon at all. I just purchased high grade, and with shipping, it costs about $12/g. 

It's definitely profitable, especially since most of the demographic is college or close-to college age. Dank and pills are pricey at most campuses.

Well if they have been a member on Silk Road since it first opened, that still means they have spent $800 / week on drugs.
Most likely to resell... I have had customers with over 200K spent.

Big spenders create new accounts when their spending reaches a certain limit. SR keeps logs of everything and security conscious people don't want that long of an evidence trail.

"total spent is approximated based on current USD exchange rate ".

I think these figures have been converted from the original bitcoin amount spent, using the current market rate.

Since the value of coins has risen I'd imagine the actual amounts spent are lower than indicated.

These guys might've been making purchases when coins were worth $10 or so.

Correct me if I'm wrong?

Cool.

That must refer to exchanging from USD to GBP (and other currencies) then, rather than BTC to USD.

As you were...
