Cocaine Seems like a bit of a let down?

In the UK. Cocaine is averagely under 10%. I have to be drunk to feel anything off it. You are basically paying money to feel shit. When you get to over 60%, i find you have a brilliant time, no come down sober. Unfortunate, like everything the cocaine trade is 50% greed, 50% money. Purify your stuff

That's not really the truth there have been numerous studies where people have bought random samples off the street and most of it was at least 50% pure. Cocaine is a nice drug but it's not the "wham bam" smash in the face that a lot of people expect unless IVed or smoked in its freebase form. I think Cocaine is a decent stimulant, but unless you have tons of money to blow and don't care about wasting it you can get plenty of stimulants that are just as good or better for a fraction of the price - a large part of Cocaine's popularity is just its reputation as the "rich mans drug", a lot of people get the added rush just off the fact they're sticking insane amounts of money up their nose in a single weekend.

Most of the other competing stimulants out there are purely NDRIs where Cocaine is an SNDRI which is why it's somewhat subtler (particularly at low doses) and more relaxed until you IV/smoke or push it to high doses, there aren't many SNDRIs available that are decent and that's another selling point for it.

Personally though I've had good coke and it's a waste of money to me, I'd much rather take some a-PVP or even MDPV for a night out than coke, they have more legs (duration per dose), much lower dosage required, less cardiac side effects, the price is nothing in comparison, and I can stay going all night, share with everyone else at the party, and go home with nearly the same amount I took to the party with me in the first place.

Tl;dr Cocaine is a decent enough drug, but the price to high ratio of Cocaine is probably the worst out of any drug on the market, and you can easily emulate and beat the high for a fraction of the price. Some people though as I said just get off on the fact "hey I'm doing Cocaine" and that's enough of a selling point to them to make it worth the price. I'd rather get my money's worth and get a better night and have my pocket full of money and drugs still at the end of the evening though. :)
 
Frankly OP, it sounds like you did some very weak cocaine. If I were to pick up two grams of the white that I can get, I would have a hell of a time. Yes it's short-lived but two grams would last me for a great night.

Coke is not for everyone, the feeling of urgency and whatnot can be unpleasant to some. But I refuse to believe someone could do two grams and not get any euphoria.

My suggestion is if you want a euphoric stimulation (like MDMA which you seem to be quite a fan of), cocaine is worth another try IF you can find it in good quality. Signs of that are rockiness (suggests minimal cutting, raw coke comes in rocky form), and also if you put the coke in a folded card or bill and crush it, the result should be flattened and sticky. I'd say give some quality cocaine a chance if you want to try it and stay away from whatever garbage you got two grams of.

Just my two cents, nothing wrong with sticking to MDMA if that is your cup of tea. I personally am not a big fan of stimulants, but if I can get my hands on some nice rocky fishsale blow I won't complain ;)
 
who thinks mephedrone is a superior drug in every single way compared with coke?

they're different but meph is just so good.
 
And how exactly did you "determine" that? Do you have access to a lab with testing equipment?

Be honest, did you at least type that comment with a mild self-satisfied smirk? I ask because your sardonic tone is rather poorly disguised within the pretext of your question. Moreover, the attempt to conceal your incredulity with a question is passive-aggressive and repugnant, insofar as my perception is accurate (which I don't expect your personality will allow you to accede).


Let's move past the tactless and milquetoast attempt at articulating disbelief, and address the nub of your comment. I determined the cocaine's constituents—not by magic or chemical analysis—but by asking the cocaine's purveyor—to whom I was closely acquainted even prior to their cocaine retailing. This individual procures their cocaine from a wholesaler who is sufficiently connected to some other anonymous source (s) to obtain high-quality cocaine. (Experience indicates a purity at about 80%. One cannot be sure, but it's safe to presume the inveterate coke fiend has a better intuition about purity than anyone).


My aforementioned cocaine-peddling acquaintance invariably dilutes his cocaine with methamphetamine (for a more enjoyable high? I dunno) with a usual coke-to-meth ratio of a little under 7 parts cocaine for every one part meth—that is, ~15% dilution.


Let's assume that the acquaintance's source is able to get 100% cocaine. Of course, to expand the quantity and therefore maximize profit, he steps on it a bit. I don't know this gentleman and cannot ask him what he puts in his cocaine. Therefore, we have:


100% fishcale diluted with about 15% mystery substance—insofar as the acquaintance's guessimation of 80% is accurate—then further diluted by 15% with methamphetamine.


(100 - 15) - 15 = 70% pure cocaine.


Anymore such inconsequential, wiseacre questions or retorts devised to make you feel smart will be ignored, as all pointless balderdash and verbal ordure rightly deserves.
 
He got from the lab of pull random bullshit out of his ass.

What's bullshit is how the school system failed to teach you to type even a mere sentence with proper grammar. And your caveman syntax says what of your ability to form a cogent thought? If you speak like a barbarian, one can infer your intelligence is that of one, too. In conclusion, your opinions and boorish attempts at being witty are as much a blunder as your grammar and presumably your life.

Any more dregs of society care to join the discourse?
 
From what i can tell this is apparently high quality ... the faster and stronger the numbing comes to your gums is a good way to gauge the potency?

Or it's probably laced with a lot of lidocaine.



I also found cocaine to be incredibly underwhelming.
 
Nope, nom that's still not sufficient to "determine" purity; you should have used the word "estimated". Also u seem butt-hurt I suggest some chill pills.

You got any links to said studies re the 50% pure random street samples? I find that very hard to believe, it's only around 50% pure when you go one step below the importer so street level 50%, no way imo. Street coke in the UK is 10% at best and a fair amount contains no actual cocaine at all. You can get 50% if you are buying massive amounts from legit links or know the right person but no way on the street man.
