Wow. I hope the dealers had insurance on that shipment.

Drop in the bucket. Street value != wholesale value. That table probably holds less than $20k in sunk costs.

Nearly three metric tons of cocaine are produced every year. That table is holding less than 1% of it.

Yeah, I'm sure they want the heat of killing a pretty much unconnected civilian.


You'd have to figure out the proper channels and you'd get a cut rate but you'd still come out to the good unless you were a moron and sold it to feds.

Just spend cash for the next year on stuff like groceries and going out to eat and small things.


Definitely don't go buy another boat

If I was keeping it, I would check every single package for anything that wasn't supposed to be there.

I would probably try to keep it and sell it somehow, however, I would probably have a heart attack and die from the anxiety

American cops? Yeah - what else am I gonna do with it? I would probably do it by anonymous tip though. I don't want some cartel tracking me down.

Now if I found it on the beach of some Banana Republic? Zero chance I am going to the corrupt local authorities with a million dollar bundle of drugs. They would probably kill or arrest me to silence the only witness and then unload it themselves. I'm leaving that shite in the mangroves and getting outta Dodge.

There’s still a weed black market even in the legal states. They just undercut the dispensaries prices

As far as I know cocaine doesn’t have an expiration date. Seems like a guy could sell it over time and supplement a guy’s income.

I'd hand it all over besides a brick or 2 to break in case of emergency

If you sell it it large quantities, you have a great risk of some buyers killing you (or robbing you of the rest of your stash).

If you sell "a little at a time," as suggested by some, each transaction runs a risk of arrest. If they do a search and find your huge cocaine stash, you are going to the pen for a long time.

Hell no. I don't know where to sell it but I guarantee you I'll find out. I still know people that get me in touch with the right people. I'm not breaking it down to penny pinch my way to it being gone either. I'm unloading weight fast. Someone would be stupid to hand it over to the cops. Destroy it or sell it. Don't give them recognition to take pics with the shite.

Wonder how much they went through in the week since Debby rolled through.
