^^I sampled from the same powdered batch as Zero & Shambles.
(In fact, I way over-dosed but that's a different story - one which can be found concealed in a few different threads if you're really interested).
(1) No; we can't say for certain that it was 6apb (although I'm pretty sure Shambles has seen some spectro on it). It was not like any other drug I have tried though, so take that as you will (I suppose I take from it that it was not a mixture of other RCs as some have suggested).
(2) Yes, it really was 'that' good
(3) Nothing since has come close to that quality, including anything coming from the 'official 5' this week
(4) Yes, anyone other than the 'official 5' claiming to be selling 6apb, is lying &/or scamming. Period. End of discussion. (Note, that they can sell a brand name such as "BenzoFury", and send you dog shit in a cap, and still be legit).
There are a number of different reasons why this product will never reach the quality seen previously. Some reasons I know for sure; others I can only guess at. None are really appropriate to speculate about in public. (HINT: there's a reason why this product went through a number of 'phases' of synth/sample/synth/sample. Think about it.)
My advice would be to stop getting so excited about Benzo 'wank' Fury and find something else to pin your hopes on. I think we will see a synth that gets back to previous levels eventually; but this won't be for ages, and will unlikely be with the existing group of official vendors or their manufacturer.
I think what you are likely seeing now is 5 extremely pissed off people, wondering how they can recoupe some of their £200k (per person) investment that they have been so emphatically screwed out of. Answer: well, they need to fulfil their pre-orders and repay their marketing expenses with 'something' don't they
