GRASS!!
He claimed that a shipment of 25 bricks was made, and he listed like 5 other nature related totally ridiculous names for stamps.
And he said that of these 10 or so names, that the 25-brick shipment was made up evenly of those names. That the distributor, when he packaged the bricks, made like 2 or 3 bricks of each stamp, then switched to a different stamp. And that every single one of these stamps was the same dope.
And hes from pittsburgh.
And he was tryin to correct ppl from JERSEY in the thread, tellin them how the game in JERSEY works.
So as u can imagine i let him know he was retarded (in nicer words) and explained that the dope game dont work like that at all, that in NJ the bricks come pre made and the dealers dont cut the dope themself, etc, all that shit, and he came back with that shit that I dont knwo nothing and Im purely ignorant...And that he knows better than me becuz he has 4 kids. AND THREE OF THEM AINT HIS...And that is relevant, somehow, to his dope game knowledge.....
But anyways, i thought u would get a laugh out of that one....Wats good with u lately?
Hows the jersey diesel scene goin...is that "winter fire" out yet?
Haha I gotta get over there and tell him what's up, I'm sure you did already but I love the idiots on these forums. I've been good though, staying out of trouble. Just trying to live, looking for a job, in school again so I'm trying to work my ass off this time so I can graduate and get a degree hopefully. I was clean for about 3 months, but I chipped once or twice over November. Then Christmas came and I went on a binge. Last 3 weeks have been on and off, just binging, chipping, taking breaks, Usual NYC dope I had was FIRE on the mark like always. I did a little shopping around Newark, but was very disappointed for a good 2 weeks. Quality fucking sucked. Count sucked. Price was on the mark though, but it still wasn't even worth it. Even the coke sucked (count, quality). Some spots are off their game now, really annoying. I was about to give up on Brick City but a friend hooked it up with some good fire stuff again from a different area, more notorious area (hot with the cops but better dope). Excellent quality, count was average to good and the price was average to good. Pay a little more for the better stuff, but you can still find CHEAP, POTENT, FAT bags in Newark 2010 I can safely say. I got scared a minute and thought shit was falling apart, but it's middle of Winter. The dope shipments aren't as frequent. I mean the city is flooded in heroin, but there's a small drought like every winter. Both coke and dope. More cuts to make up for profit loss, raised prices, increased heat from the cops. Usual winter shit if your copping on the street, I never had to deal with it because I always had a phone connect until now. I'm not using anymore really. Even though I am/was chipping, I am making sure not to get hooked so I don't get sick. The first few bags you go through are AWESOME after a break but then you just want more to have it. You know how it goes lace, then you end up where you don't want to be.
That "winter fire" ain't popping yet, like I said shit's been off but certain spots got it going. Wait till spring time, but I'm keeping my nose clean and my ass out of the hood as much as possible. Probation, school, getting a job, etc. Not worth a habit or getting caught up again and ending up in jail. My life ain't perfect right now, but I am thankful what I have and what I am striving for because I look back a year ago and I was BAD. A straight up text book junkie drug addict. Ahhh. But taking a chip shot every now and then is refreshing! 8)
How you holding up Lacey? Still clean 100%? On the methadone or suboxone maintenance?
But getting back to that dude in that stamps thread, I'm about to head over and see what this is all about.
yo alteknj
I should have said "slightly similar" when comparing Pittsburgh and Jersey. I know we get some of the same shit. Regardless of who takes, and breaks it down, off the boat, and ships it over here. Its obviously hard to tell what percent of the dope in Pittsburgh comes through Jersey. Personally, I'd say low 30%s. I got a question though mr alteknj. You think the same raw dope is used to fill Jersey bags is also shipped to the other major ports around the great lakes (Detroit, Chicago, Cleveland, even Erie)? I've seen the same raw in Cleveland, Detroit, and Erie which leads me to believe that its distributed through the great lakes, possibly after Jersey (through the lakes)??
To answer your question as best as my knowledge: probably. But the transportation routes are different. The heroin from Colombia usually makes it's way into the ports in NJ (Elizabeth, Newark) and the tons of ports in NYC. Also a lot of it makes it way through the airports (Newark, LaGuardia, JFK) through couriers or kilo shipments set up. They fly in from the Islands (Cuba, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic), Central America, connecting flights in Miami, etc. You have the largest heroin market in the country in the Northeast and NJ/NYC is smack

dab in the middle of it. The seaports and airports make it good way to traffic the dope in, the interstates and highways make moving it around driving easy. The problem with the dope getting to other major distribution hubs such as places like Detroit, Clevelend, Erie, Chicago etc is it is not the SAME quality. These Colombians don't just order up 400 kilos of heroin and it gets into NJ and say 100 of it is supposed to go to the Detroit area, they aren't going to sell them the kilos that are ~95% pure. The make 2 kilos into 3 or whatever. They step on it. This is the first time the dope gets stepped on. So the distributors make money/profit by charging more the price a kilo to a place like Detroit or they might sell wholesale price (a normal price) but that kilo of dope isn't 95% it's 60-70% or even less. Then it trickles down the distributors, middle men, people who deal in weight to your neighborhood
drug dealer. Of course, different areas get from different sources differmr
