So I was watching pulp fiction and in the movie the heroin scene he was saying he just came back from Amsterdam and he was buying heroin from his guy, love the movie overall by the way...who doesnt, and if he says that shit is strongest shit and he questions the potency of what he is about to buy because he has been in Amsterdam, then it must be potent there?

Im just wondering what the potency difference is in England. And Amsterdam vs NJ. Because I live in NJ. And I am going to England.. i dont plan to do it, cause ill be a tourist/traveler and dont want to even look for it, and dont want to really do it i dont believe, and i dont know if i could get jacked, robbed, beaten, etc. over there and if there is undercovers. and I am also going to Amsterdam too.

So i was just pretty much curious, but there could be a chance of me looking but I highly doubt it due to me being with a brother in law and I wont even be able to get a chance to get away and ask people, let alone find someone and do a deal lol. Soooo does anyone know? I would think it would be stronger, a lot stronger over there due to the fact that Afgahnistan and Asian countries are on the same piece of land and very close to there and they must ship out of a harbor in UK somewhere to get to NJ in the first place.

Anyone have numbers, stories, etc? Just curious for the most part.
 
I get my dope from Brooklyn, ny wich is a known area for high potency and low pricing, honostly at times I wish it was cause its so easy to get and so cheap that quitting is so hard. Ooo addiction.
Any how I have had some bomb powder white that's all I get in stamped wax bags. From what I under stand in the uk people have to drop acid in the mix to draw and mix. I only have to add water mix shoot. I've done tar once before. Nothing compared to my Brooklyn shit

Most of this is wrong. The east coast of the US gets its heroin from South America, primarily Colombia. Therefore, it has nothing to do with the heroin that goes from Afghanistan to the UK. There has been a heroin drought in the UK since this time last year, and although things seem to be getting a little better over there, anything that you find on the street will likely be fake. Another difference is that the US gets heroin HCL, and the UK gets heroin base. I wouldn't go basing anything off of a movie like that.
 
I am from New Jersey as well, and i know for a fact that they have some of the most potent Heroin in the world. Obviously not 100% pure but it's fucking good - Good Like 5 dollars of "average" jersey powder gets you the equivalent of almost 100 dollars worth of good cali tar. Anyone who disputes that didn't grow up in Jersey and hasn't been to cali. I literally chose California as a living destination almost entirely because of how disgusting the Heroin is on the west coast. Anyone who shoots that shit only does it because they don't know what real heroin is.

Damn... well I guess I never knew how lucky, and unlucky, I was when I was doing bags and buns every other day and stuff like that. I've been on sub for a good while now, i dont take much of that at all and I dont plan to take it much longer since ive been clean a while. I never was an ADDICT and i never shot it, never would.

But yeah I never knew how lucky, or how potent it was compared to the rest of the world. Mine came from newark or patterson im sure everytime. I just figured from watching the movie, though movies lie, such as American Gangster that they would ship out from Asian countries and Afgahnistan etc. and trec across to the UK to distrubute there, OR ship out from those harbors on those huge cargo crates.. but then again they have those security guys working the cargo crates. And it makes sense their would be a drought due to politcal reasons of countries not being able to cross into other countries so easily in the Middle East.

But hmmm I never knew about that Colombia thing. But still I would think that if the Colombia thing is true, then Floridia, Texas, those southern sea bordered countries would have more potent or that same potentcy because they are closer to be shipped from Colombia and those countries, as New Jersey you can but its is furthur.

I still would think Amsterdam and UK would have potent stuff, I guess im wrong!

Also I would love to try that stuff that Lance had in Pulp Fiction... real or fiction hahaha, or do you guys think the three bags he had would be the same strength we have in jersey? btw i do know about different types of heroin and that we have ones that are in a certain form that you dont need to do anything, hcl right, and u just add water, and u shoot it if u wanted or u can snort it easily, etc. Type 1 or 2 heroin its base .. correct?
 
Dope in the UK is variable at the moment, still coming out of the 'Heroin Drought' last year. Purity will probably average at 25% to 35%, though there is occasional strong stuff going round. Some dealers set aside stronger batches for 'Conisour' (bad spelling!) customers.

I'm thinking of moving to NJ now!
