How long do you usually keep your dealers? v. its actually how long do they keep YOU?

[xstayfadedx]

Yeah I mean, some dealers who deal hard drugs can be friendly as shit but the problem is most aren't.. And sadly not everyone can just meet some awesome dope dealer and become pals with them before they even end up dealing to you. I wish it was that easy... Maybe then I would have life long dealers :')

However my psychedelic dealers have also been always awesome and been some of the dealers I kept the longest... As well with my herb dealers (a lot are friends but were friends before I started buying from them).

I know that my dealer has actually bailed out a few of his customers from jail before, no joke; he's a stand up guy.

A close friend of mine does the same thing for customers and would do the same for me and anyone I know. He's got a really good heart for what he does.

Also, I agree verso, the cops tend to go up when they do busts-it doesn't help them to get users as much as it would to get someone higher up in the game and busting a big dealer makes them appear to be accomplishing something more so than getting some user. Its also more efficient for them go up.

I don't really do any hard drugs but I end up making friends with my psyche (and when I can smoke) weed dealers because we are generally like minded people. A lot of the people I grew up with or got to know in grade school ending up being dealers so that helps too.

In fact...I have never had a dealer get busted so I've pretty much kept all of my dealers cept for like 1 that moved away and I quit buying quantity from one dude when I got busted and while I didn't roll on him, it was more of a business relationship...speaking of that, I need to go see him soon as he was a really cool guy as well, totally didn't look at all like the dealer type, like he looked like a random dude.

Ive known one of my herb street dealers, whos also my immediate Coke connection as well, since 2nd grade haha. We drifted after elementary and never really talked in middle/high school until my senior year when I became better friends with someone I had acquainted early in HS (who Im still friends with today) who also happened to know my friend from 2nd grade haha. Basically everyone in the drug scene at my HS knew each other, or had a mutual friend.

I will always have a solid herb connection. My brother in-law works for a dispensary. No med card needed for family and him & my sister will never stop smoking. So I'll always have a legit connection to some dank buds.

As far as my dope I have about 3 "reliable" connects. All of which are usually around and are very rarely dry. I've had all these dealers for the last 2 years. Before that I would basically go through high priced middle-men trying to get high themselves. Over time tho I was able to get their connects numbers which greatly reduced the price of my dope btw.

Anywho, I will always go to my preferred dealer first, obv. Who has cheaper prices and is always really quick. & be doesnt use, at all. Lately tho he's been hitting on me... Which is kinda weird. But I'd say we have a good relationship. As far as the trust thing goes. He's fronted me many many many times. But our relationship won't ever go past dealer/buyer.

The second guy, uses and has slightly higher prices. But not by much. The only thing about him is that he lagggggggs hard! It's so annoying. I've waited hours and hours OUTSIDE his HOUSE. Which quite frankly makes no sense. If I was dealing I would want to get that shit over with as fast as possible, esp if I had 3 dope fiends loitering around my house waiting for me.

The last dealer is just a fall back. & I only go to him and the one mentioned above if dealer #1 is out, not around, or if I don't feel like waiting around for him to be free.

I don't really buy anything else. When I did ecstasy & acid a while back. All my dealers were either friends from highschool or friends that I had before.

My weed "dealer" (I'm his only customer, grows for himself) I've known since high school, so about 17 years now.

With dope, it's another game entirely. At the beginning, I would score off randoms, getting a phone number in the process. I still collect those, never a bad thing to have a lot of backups, but loyalty pays off, so for the last year or so I've been going with the same guy who's reliable, doesn't sell crap (he rather says he's out than scamming his customers), and even does credit if I'm really skinned. Plus, home delivery, can't beat that, scrummy street pushers

 

['medicine cabinet']

shiiiiit, had my old dope dealer never gotten popped we probably would have never stopped. and yea, loyalty does pay off because this dude gave me tons of free dope over the 4 years i was coppin from him and his family, even times when i was sick and owed him loot he would throw me a little get well as he used to call it. i made this guy a fortune over the years tho, a lot of ppl, friends of mine and so on would go cop and since he had the best dope ive ever had still to this day, they ALL went back for more. So yea i can see why he would want to keep me feeling good and bringing him more ppl.

i think dope is one of the few drugs that you will have a solid relationship with your guy if you can help it, weed and other shit, ppl come and go, but once you get tehe number of a good dope connec, you are likely apt to keep hitting him (or her) up over and over and over again. and as long as youre not a pain i the ass, they will probably want you coming to see them over and over and over again.

Lucky, I just don't find myself being able to do that... Unless a life long friend started dealing and what not. I think even if you play your cards right you can still find yourself without a dealer and searching for another. Sometimes whether you keep one or not is out of you hands...

i was referring to the dealer being able to play his cards right, as in staying under the radar and staying out of jail and in the game for 13 years. and he isn't selling small quantities either. i think my bf has been in jail for more drug related charges than him and he's just a dumbass user, haha.

 

[spacebound]

got a bunch of different bud connects, most i've known for a while. coke, benzos, opiates, etc. my dealers change a little more frequently. i have one connect for pills i've had for over a year, but he's an exception.

 

[HeadphonesandLSD]

Most of my dealers I will keep for as long as they're free and in business. However, it's always good to have fall backs, especially of your an opiate user.

^ nail on the head.

People like me for some reason, never understood why as I'm kinda an asshole. I've never crossed a dealer and always paid for shit I got on the front when I said I would (okay, once I got robbed and he understood, took 5 days to come up with the cash).

I have three main people, and about 20 fall backs if you include people my friends know. There is always the ER too...never got THAT bad off yet though. I'll lay in bed dope sick for a week before I even entertain the idea of scamming the ER out of some opiates.

But yea....as long as they're in business and aren't acting shady all of the sudden I'm good to go. Even messed with a few that I knew were in trouble with the law over dealing just because they were the only ones that had anything at the time. Always got lucky on that front, don't like messing with those shady types.

Now my friends...I've seen them worry the fuck out of dealers to the point that they get cut off. That's the main reason why I don't "refer" anyone to my hook-ups anymore. Well that, and the fact that some asshole that's your friend will come around and buy all the shit before you get a chance to fix up on re-up day.

I hate people like that...buy the whole months stash then either won't sell you shit or want to charge like double the price because they know you're dope sick, fucking assholes. >.> These same people wonder why I don't "hook them up" anymore when they call me up going "man I'm hurting, I'm sick, man find me something!". Most of those people have their own scripts too, I'm like man..you get 175 pills a month and you're calling me up for help when you won't even hook me up when I'm sick? Fuck off.

One of the main reason I hate opiates (aside from what they did to me) is the fact that they will turn a great friend into a thief, a mooch, a fiend....you name it. Ever had a "friend" just drop in for a visit and sit around for HOURS waiting on you to kick something out? I can't stand those types, its so damn obvious what they're up to. I mean, I understand you're broke and dope sick but so am I most of the time. Don't call me up 5 times a day and txt bomb my phone, all you're doing is reminding me of my own dope sickness and pissing me off. ><

Ive had the same 2 dope dealers that I use habitually for like 3 years straight now.. I had the same weed dealer for nearly 6 years but that ended. My dope dealers rule.. they don;'t use and are business men about it..
