From my understanding skyline GTR and GZero know each other and both also know, trust and are in touch with the Vendor. Now if one were a skeptical and philosophical cove and one were to apply Occam's Razor to this threesome one would be left with GZero and Skyline GTR being the vendor.
Then the answer to your question would be that they tried to shill this forum.
i do not support your idea of keeping the price artificially inflated.
1. there are multiple vendors for any given chinese synth lab, so unless all the vendors collude on prices the people will eventually find the cheapest vendor.
2. you sound like a christian prude who wants taxes on cigarettes and alcohol because 'sinners' who do these substances are evil and killing themselves.
3. price-fixing, although it may feel like you are paying for a high-quality product, does not guarantee purity or honesty.
if 6-APWTF actually does end up to be a pleasurable MDA replacement (with less side effects and toxicity), then BY ALL MEANS bring on the pressed pills! it would be better than all the caffeine/piperazine beans that show up on the market when the DEA destroys all the safrole.
Or, there's more incentive? I thought expense was why all cut MDxx started?3. Price-fixing may or may not guarantee quality. that wasn't the argument i made for it. It was to improve HR. Also if it's expensive with no bulk discounts, abuse potential is lower, and there's less incentive for half-arsed amateurs to buy 100g from a site and cut it down and sell it on, cut. HR again.

yeah, flakey logic at 4.50am. you're right.
still think the proposd price is too low for a mass market product like this, though. and still think meph fucked up so many people not just because of its addictiveness, but also its cheapness.
No-one has really got a clue what the fuck they're on about - I'm right, you're wrong, it's called this, it's called that.
we have 2 chemicals. one is legal one is not? am right?
one has been tested by people one hasnt?
they are both likely to be pretty decent? or is one likely to pick up the a semi automatic while im checking my pizza?
Crack is expensive and addictive and there is still a HUGE problem with that, so jacking up the price wont help it from running rampant. It will just make addicts poorer.
And whoever said we would be better off with 6-APB in pressies than Pipes and shit...RIGHT ON! I'm down for that too!
With regard to the vendor…
Well, keep in mind that nasty meph has a short duration, causing people to take dose after dose after dose in a great binge of nastiness.Key difference - crack is illegal. you have to make an effort to either get it, or to get coke good enough to make it. Not just click on your Favourites bar and then put your Paypal passwrod in...
These two new drugs are legal and are being awaited by tens of thousands of people in a market super-saturated with scammers, blaggers, liars and thieves.
In Jan 2009, mephedrone was barely available to the mass market. By March 2009, there were a handful of sites selling it. By August 2009, you could call it in to your home 24/7 for a tenner. It became endemic in the UK. Even the smallest town had a meph dealer.
By March 2010 it was totally off the hook, Bluelight was covered in threads reporting problematic useage patterns. Hospitals reported dozens of mephedrone-related admissions per week.
While mephedrone alone never actually killed anyone in the UK, it wasn't really a positive situation.
On these grounds, I believe a price hike will protect customers.
But it's capitalism, and if one prson drops their price, the rest will follow.
All the BKs were sold wholesale around £2-3K a kg, and sold retail for around £12,000. Wonder what the the labs are charging for the next gen of bulk RCs to the UK?
Mephedrone was fun, relatively safe (unless in high doses) and cheap.
