It's gotten more expensive for the average user. A year or so ago there was a major bust in India for it. So much so that for a few months it was hard to get even for people I know who love it and have all the hook ups. Like they can tell you the difftence between S and R isomer Ketamine. Most people buying probably do not know or care about that. Might be 100 a gram for good stuff and less for cut stuff. Since of course like any drug some one else steps up. It's like $30 a gram if you buy one less if more which lots of people do. Not really my thing but in small doses a few times a year it can be good. I prefer it when already tripping on LSD or something like that just to give the trip a little bump of intensity.
