*that value is off, it should be about half that*

Police say a suspected drug trafficker tossed a package containing more than 17,000 bags of heroin out the window of his SUV as officers pursued him on Tuesday.


The chase began about 5 p.m. when Michael Pritchett, 25, of the 1300 block of Vandever Ave. in Wilmington, was on an off ramp at Gov. Printz Boulevard and I-495 in Fox Point.
Wilmington and New Castle County officers attempted to stop Pritchett’s 2001 Ford Expedition, but he led them on a chase through the northeast part of the city.


Master Sgt. Steven Barnes, Wilmington police spokesman, said Pritchett tossed the bundle of drugs out in the 1300 block of E. 27th St.


At 25th and Broom streets, Pritchett stopped the SUV and fled on foot, Barnes said.
After a search by city, county and state police, Pritchett was apprehended while coming out of a wooded area in the Augustine Ridge development, east of Augustine Cutoff.
Police charged Pritchett with trafficking in heroin over 50 grams and related counts. He was being held in Young Correctional Institution in Wilmington in lieu of $739,500 bail.


Barnes said the package Pritchett tossed out containted 17,674 bags of heroin packaged for sale and stamped “Lottery.” The drugs are valued at $176,740, he said.


Police also seized the SUV, valued at $10,000

Even being sold by the bag?

That's what I am saying. According to that figure that is saying they are $10 a bag on the street and they aren't. They go for less than that. Due to rules I can't be specific but I can say it is less than $10 a bag.
 
Word. I asked because you mentioned bundles in your subject so I didn't know if you were factoring in wholesale values or what. Thanks for the reply. :)
 
Lol imagine walking down the street and then all of the sudden seeing THAT hurled at you. Id cream my pants.

Cops wouldn't catch me you can bet your life on that. I'd catch that like Steve Young throwing to Jerry Rice and get ghost.
 
The blaze out the last few weeks was Nike and Gap. They both got weak, as the dope game works, you put out a brand, make it strong, then step on it once there is a demand for it. I haven't heard of Lottery so I am assuming it was the next batch to hit the streets and is probably the blaze.

Hopefully this guy isn't connected to the pipline I use. If so it's going to be dry for me for a minute because all the people I deal with are cousins and they all cop their weight from the same person and if this is him then they are going to fall back for a while and last time I tried copping on the street I got beat so if it isn't someone I can call on the phone I'll do without dope and get some oxy's.
 
with that many bundles he prob was running a distribution center.... otherwise you would see raw

In this area it all comes out of Philly.

Street Dealer - buys logs (10 bundles each) and sells bags and bundles on the street. Unstepped on. Bags are set up for street sale.

Distributor (this guy) - buys multible logs and sells logs to street dealer. Unstepped on. Already set up for distribution. Bags are stamped and sealed.

Supplier - This guy is somewhere in Philly. He gets the raw weight in kilograms. He and his people bag up and cut the stuff and get it street ready. - Stepped on.

Big dawg - Gets kilos from probably New York. Hard to say. More than likely steps on it and sells to the suppliers.

The NE (NY, Jersey, PA, Delaware) all have white heroin. I am assuming it all comes from the orient. Once you get down to Baltimore you get the brown heroin, not tar, but brown powder. I posted a question in the Heroin Serious Discussion thread but didn't get an answer. I don't know where that stuff originates but due to vinegar taste and smell I think it is actually #3 heroin with vinegar or something acidic added to make it useable without the user having to acidify it.

Because our dope (NE) is street ready way up the ladder we have the purist heroin this side of the country. I don't know how it works on the West Coast and Mid West but I theorize that it enters from Mexico and gets stepped on more as it travels north. From what I've read the purist tar is in Pheonix, San Diego, etc. all along the US/Mexican border. The Northeast definitely has the best shit starting as south as Delaware up to NY/North Jersey. I don't know how it works in Boston, but with the proximity to NY I would think they have the same dope we do.

I think Baltimore/DC/Va all have the brown dope and it enters through the port of Baltimore. Then the southern east coast states rely on Mexico for their dope. Again these are theories. My only dope experience is the Baltimore and Philly regions. Everything else is based off of what I read on here and see on TV and the internet.

All dope, for the sake of this discussion, in the US is #4.

lozgod already mentioned it, but yeah, they're most likely Philly bags, which DO go for $10. Only time you'll see a discount if you're buying bundles(bundles aren't 10 bags in Philly) or above that.




Oh man, that photo must be like Viagra for a bunch of people here... ;)

I've never paid $10 a bag. Since the admin posted a price I'll go out on a limb and say it. I've always paid half that. Bundles have 13 bags (I said logs have 10 bundles in them, not 10 bags to a bundle) and I've gotten 2 bundles for $100 many a time in Delaware. I haven't copped in Philly in years and forget what I paid there, but in DE which is the same exact stuff as Philly a bundle has 13 bags and you can get 2 bundles for $100 all day. So it's less than $5 a bag.
 
ya but is that decent dope?

It's rare to not find good dope around here. If you read all the posts, dope doesn't get stepped on by the street dealers or the ones that sell to the street dealers. Anything from in the NE 95 corridor is going to be 70%+ or better.

Occasionally a brand will be blazing and get a following and then it will be garbage for a week or so to make a quick bigger profit but for the most part, the branding ensures dope is good. If one brand sucks people look for other brands. The branding creates competition and competition makes for a better product.
 
Philly bundles are generally 14 bags, but I've seen different blocks/dealers do different deals, anywhere from 12-15 in bundles

I have heard of bricks, mainly from Jersey people I know, but never heard of a log before. Everyone in Philly I've dealt with has dealt in bundles, but has never specified or known about a quantity higher than a bundle

I've never seen pricing like you are talking about in DE lozgod. I don't want this to become a pricing/source thread, but is that standard retail in DE? I know someone who is from Wilmington who told me about similar deals, but would come up to Philly to grab. How is the quality of DE bags?
 
^ I would imagine it might all just come down to who you know and how often you're seeing them.
 
lozgood, the dope in philly and NY NJ area aint from the orient. Its south american dope. There is very little if any dope from sea/swa that comes into this area, that shit took a hit a long time ago in the frank lucas days . it been the south american colombian shit for a while now here in this area.

Phrozen already said it, but its true that #3 aint available in the us as pretty much a rule. lots of dope got a vinegar smell--you get that smell really strong with some jersey bags sometimes too, and we all know tar stanks like that, even if you aint had it you be on here long enough and hear folks talk about it and you know. it dont mean that its a different type of dope. whether its powdered rocked up, etc, dope come in all type of ways here but its all #4.

plus, vinegar aint the shit thats used to cook up #3 dope--its citric acid. and that shit is added as a dry powder. gettin it wet with vinegar would fuck up the dope, it would hydrolyze into morphine. there aint no dry vinegar that i know of that could be added to it in pre-sale form ;) So im just sayin, theoretically even if this was true why fuck with the norm and use something other than the standard #3 acid that is used? You feel me? theres a lot of shit that dont work out about ur theory.

Even in the UK, where dope is #3, they dont sell dope with the shit already added, the user add it themself. I aint sayin its bad to think about shit, you know...come up with your ideas and shit like that, aint nothin wrong with it Im just lettin you know why that aint true and would never be true. :)
 
I can't say what I would've done since I've never been in the situation. I think cutting a hole in the bottom and driving around hanging it out the window as it leaks bags everywhere would've been interesting.
