Just wake up one of the gamines passed out in the gutter or under a bridge in downtown Bogotá and ask. If you like crack you'll love basuco. How much have you been paying?

I'm no expert on this, but I always thought bazuco was just cocaine base, which I believe sells for roughlythe same cost per gram as crystal cocaine. I don't know the street price of coke in Bogota but I can easily promise you that nobody is paying $US50 a gram for it. I'd guess more like $US1 or2 per gram.

hollywood,i dont really know thats why i asked,but i checked again to see if i heard right...and yes they said the rate is 450.000 for 5 gram,i could understand them saying its a poor man drug at a 1 dollar or 2 ,but at 450.000....????

I'm no expert, but I've heard its like 200/500 pesos a 'papeleta' (dunno how many grams that is). Maybe they're just trying to rip you off ujay? Like big time?
Just in case, I've never done basuco and Im not interested, maybe I read it or heard it somewhere.
