So what happens if this 6-ADPB turns out to be a flop, or have they tested enough people to make sure it wont be? I hope its not like mephedrone.
Having been lucky enough to try it (6-APB I should add, not 6-APDB), I would say it's not going to be a mephedrone replacement for vendors in terms of insane sales volumes, it wont appeal to the meph kiddies or casual drug users, in fact its far far removed from mephedrone in pretty much every aspect.
Yes it delivers very good euphoria and empathy, but more like MDMA/MDA than mephedrone. 90mg oral had me knocked for six for many hours (albeit I'm a bit of a lightweight these days), and I felt no need or desire to redose, even though I'm pretty bad for fiending on meph, coke, pills etc.
That kind of duration and potency I think will put off a lot of casual drug or RC users, especially if they start off by sniffing big lines the first time they try it, they'll get so fucked some probably wont take it again.
As an aside, I dont know what it is with many peoples' seemingly uncontrollable compulsion to snort any powdered drug put in front of them when some drugs are far better taken orally IMO (particularly MDxx).
I don't think the psychedelic aspect will be as big a deal as the duration in determining its popularity or lack of amongst the masses, its only visuals and not as intense as ones you get off LSD, more like a mild to moderate dose of shrooms. But it might be a bit off putting to people who have never had pyschedelics before.
So I dont think it will take off like mephedrone. I do think it will be popular amongst more experienced drug users, esp those who are already partial to their MDMA/MDA.
