Limited expert testimony, by an officer who was also a fact [173]*173witness, concerning methods used by drug dealers to avoid being found in possession of drugs and buy money was properly admitted to explain the non-recovery of the buy money (see, People v Hunt, 249 AD2d 246, lv denied 92 NY2d 899).
