Why would lsd be cheaper when it’s well-known that it’s difficult to produce? Whereas, from what I know, there are a whole bunch of different amphetamines, and e.g. meth is pretty abundant.

A person who’s never tried actual lsd by the virtue of absence of such in their country, wouldn’t know what it should be like. They’d just have some buzz and a somewhat psychedelic effect from whatever they were sold. I’m not convinced you yourself got real lsd, if you think it’s cheaper than other drugs.

And again, for what reason? What is the motivation of adulterating drugs?

Do you seriously have trouble with the concept of why mixing flour into coke is beneficial for the dealer’s bottom line?
