It's a clever way to smuggle drugs. It probably got a bit bust up in transit but would of worked apart from the fact that having ten Thermos flasks isn't exactly what I'd call inconspicuous. Drugs are bad mmm kay but you got to admire a good idea when you see one.

They break it down to the smallest possible quantity (gram or less) and multiply it back. All about shock value and they want a big $$$ number to tell the media about.

Yeah, that's what I figured. They want the bust to look as important as possible, regardless of how meaningless it really is. Just like my resume.

Pure cocaine it's not used to be sold, in general. It is used to produce more cocaine. With one kilo you could get around 2-4 kilos of cocaine depending on how you "cut it".

Now, the big question is... should I post this?

What he said. If it is made into crack, one kilo of cocaine can be made into almost 10 kgs or crack. That is worth a lot of money.

hmmmm but crack is worth less than coke, usually because it can be cut differently and the quality is different (crack can be as low as 10$ a gram).OK so 3 kilos of cocaine, lets say after it's cut it 's worth about 30,000g of crack mmkay. Thats around hmm 50$ per gram at most (it's crack we're talking about, caine is more).

30000x50= 150,0000$................yah they were probably off about 2 mill.



BTW I don't do crack or cocaine (very stupid dangerous drugs), I just know a bit about it.

Yeah, I still think they said a big number, not real. But well.

Now imagine, over here they found around 50 tons of pure cocaine coming from Colombia... Now, that's loosing money.

You're all wrong. It's worth that much because the guitar was relic'd.
