Bindles In Oz?

[mushi mushi 88]

OK so I've got an easy one here, does anybody in Australia receive their drugs packaged in bindles?

I know it is very common to get it that way over in America and maybe in Europe not to sure about that one though. I have never heard of anybody getting that way over here though...

I think it would be kind of cool if you got it like that well kind of different anyways.

Only if theres nothing else to use, I prefer getting my stuff in bags because therefore im not going to lose anything unless theres that awful bastard hole in the bag that you get every so often.

Down at a certain drug spot in Sydney which I dont go to they sell heroin/coke/ice in balloons and other americanised packaging, but yer I hate that place so "I" dont personally get it.

I've gotten whizz in the past in wraps, that's about the extent of it though.
Oh and heroin in water balllons a few times, but haven't seen any glasine envelopes here before.

One of the biggest problems with bindles is that they don't stop the contents being exposed to the atmosphere. On a humid day, deliquescent or hygroscopic compounds wrapped like this go gluggy. The problem is made worse if the paper used is not a glossy type.

Another prob is, as the_ketaman mentioned, concerns wear. If the bindle gets carried loose in a pocket, it can wear quickly at the folds. Once upon a time, practically all small deals of powders were sold this way so the advent of easily available clip tops was no doubt seen as a much improved form of packaging.

OK sweet thanks everyone for your replys... I wonder if anybody gets it in those really small wax coated bags that you sometimes see? I have never gotten drugs in any of these ways, maybe one day I will... I wouldn't mind making a bindle one day just to see how it works and so forth.

Oh I've seen drugs being sold in balloons before as well, pretty much only smack though.

We're not talking about what's wrong with clippy bags we're having a discussion about whether their are bindles in oz or not please think and read the thread before you post thanks...

Personally I think clippy bags are better as well!
