I've got a copy of the Fifth Printing of SR4. On page 329, it has prices and availability for all of the street drugs except for Jazz. It gives an availability of 2R, but no cost. Any ideas of what it should be?

I have to agree with Jaid here. Jazz is there for dealing with "typical" augmented opponents, like big metas hopped up on Nitro. In raw metagame terms, the typical Lonestar beat cop is there to present a non-combat obstacle to the runners or to pose a threat to the non-combat specialists. Flatlining a few officers as they respond to a corp distress call, isn't hard for a Samurai, but it is the kind of thing that gets a citymaster and a few aerial support drones on your ass post haste. Which, incidentally, is why a Samurai better be able to tear Joe Lonestar to shreds-- if he can't do the job quickly and safely, I doubt he'll have the time he needs to get the rest of the team the hell out of Dodge before it's too late.
