Price of cocaine most expensive in New Zealand, cheapest in Colombia: report

Cocaine delivered faster than pizza
The survey also found that the purity of cocaine has increased in recent years due in part to the diversification and sophistication of dealing networks. It warned that the increased purity can lead to a rise in the acute medical harms and possibly to a higher rate of dependence.

Among those new methods of acquiring illegal drugs is the dark web, which has been online since the 2011 launch of the now-defunct Silk Road.

Finland had the highest percentage of respondents saying they had used the dark web to buy illegal drugs, at 45.8%. It was followed by England and the United States with 24.6% and 18.1% respectively. Five years ago, those figures stood at 16.2% for Finland, 12.4% for England and 7.8% for the United States.

The speed of delivery has also increased.

Thirty percent of respondents said for instance that they had cocaine delivered at home in less than 30 minutes. Only 16 percent said it took less than 30 minutes for pizza to be delievered.

A majority of respondents globally, 58.9%, said they could get same day delivery.
