Many of you know my stand on the price of drugs and some of you disagree.
The short of it is this - you pay for what you get, and 5 hours of bliss under the influence of pure MDMA is worth 40 bucks or more.
I've been thinking about this. consider.
A large group of people are unwilling to pay for the true worth of pure product. The market acting as a market does (remember, the drug trade is a reflection of a truely unregulated, truely free marketplace), substitutions that are less costly or more easily obtainable will happen with greater and greater regularity in a market where cost is a prime concern and purity only secondary to that price.
So what we have in a situation where MDMA can be substituted, counterfited or cut, is that people will die. Furthermore, when the people die, many will attribute those deaths to the original chemical, disregarding the fact that it may well have not been that chemical that is to blame. It was stated that some people, experienced users may never have even had real MDMA but inferior RCs and have no idea what the experience of X really is. This makes the situation even more difficult for the general drug taking population.
So long as the demand outstrips supply AND price is assigned not by that rarity but by what folks are "willing" to pay, the situation will remain as it is, where less than 25 pecent of all MDMA on the market is genuine and relatively pure.
IF we demand purity first and low price second, there will inevitably be fewer deaths, and of course, more genuinely happy customers.
so there.
That being said, my days of trying anything 'new' are over. I'm so full of shit about what I expect out of stuff now. Don't like most after-effects either. I really don't dig any of the RC's I have tried so far. Most of them were more powerful in the comedown than the actual trip. Felt worse than it was worth really.
