An alleged dealer was found with four different types of drugs worth more than £1,000 when police raided his home in Kingsteignton.
Charles Baker had two sets of electronic scales, a coded list of clients, and messages on his phone asking from customers asking about drugs, a jury at Exeter Crown Court was told.
He had cocaine, cannabis, amphetamines and a rave drug nicknamed NRG2 when police searched his home last year but insisted they were all for his own use.
Baker, aged 28, of Fore Street, Kingsteignton, denies possession of drugs with intent to supply.
Mr Sean Brunton, prosecuting, said messages on his phone, the combination of different drugs, and the presence of the scales all indicated Baker was a dealer as well as a user.
He said police found 10.4 grams of cannabis worth around £100; 27.04 grams of damp amphetamines worth around £270; 9.95 grams of cocaine worth between £300 and £500 and 33.4 of the other drug, technically known as 4MEC and worth up to £668.
A document which listed nicknames and numbers was thought to be a dealer's list by drugs liaison officers and messages on his phone used drugs slang.
Mr Brunton said one set of digital scales were found in the living room of Baker's flat and a second in his bedroom, there was a cutting blade, torn plastic bags, and a chopping board.
The cocaine and cannabis were found in a jug in the kitchen, the amphetamines in the fridge and the 4MEC in the bedroom.
Drugs intelligence officer Pc Scott Robertson told the jury it would be extremely unlikely that an ordinary user would have these quantities of different drugs.
He said:"In the context of the presence of the types of drugs and the amounts, this is not something you would associate with personal use, even by two or three people.
"I would put this as a step above the street dealing level in terms of quantities. This is mid market dealing."
He said drug terminology in the texts included the word 'tinger' meaning a small amount of cannabis and 'hen' referring to an eight of an ounce, derived from 'Henry VIII' in street slang.
Other texts referred to money as 'dollars' and to 'tabs' and 'laying on' which both meant supplying drugs on credit.
Baker says all the drugs were for personal use.
