Question morality of selling Research Chemicals IRL

In a freeworld it should be fine, but some of the RC's out there are very harsh on the body, the mind swim wouldn't be so worried about as people are very apt at destroying their psyche with the common intoxicants.

It's certainly unfair to misrepresent RC's as the ordinary drugs ie all the threads looking for the RC mix that >= MDMA....however the idea of misrepresenting something isn't new in the drug world.

Is it wrong to make your own 'X', sell baggies of 'coke' or 'lsd'? Is the fact that the person you're buying off prob not caring that its not the real deal as long as it gets them where they want to go the real point..

Re: morality of selling RC's IRL

Yes. This is ethically and morally wrong.

However, the harsh, bitter TRUTH of this subject is that many many MANY people over the years have been guilty of this very thing as well as money-making schemes that are much, much worse, ranging anywhere from decreasing the ratio of active drugs by 'cutting' a drug with cheaper non-drug to downright substitution of drugs with other ingredients--some similar or in some other way psychoactive, and others non-psychoactive--these substituted chemicals can range anywhere from completely harmless to downright harmful, toxic, and even poisonous to users.

In the spirit of the attitudes represented and the values most-highly revered by the vast majority of those who associate with this site; and also in keeping with the tenets espoused by all the various major sub-cultures representing freedom of information on drug use, health-advocacy, freedom of recreational drug use, and the worldwide decriminalization of marijuana, PLEASE DO NOT ENCOURAGE THE BLATANT MISREPRESENTATION OF DRUGS IN ORDER TO CAPITALIZE ON (AND BY LYING, EARN A HUGE PROFIT FROM) THE RIDICULOUSLY HIGH BLACK MARKET-SELLING PRICES OF *LEGITIMATE* DRUGS.
This practice is WRONG. Think about it. Drug use is a victimless crime. Selling a RC-mixture as "Ecstacy pills" is NOT a victimless crime! This sale is explicitly ILLEGAL in the U.S. Get caught selling an aspirin that you 'pretend' is really ecstacy, and you're looking at a FELONY DISTRIBUTING CLASS I NARCOTICS CONVICTION. -DICK

Really? Is this stated in law? even if the substance is completely harmless?

Thinking about it, if its not illegal, it certainly should be. Misrepresenting drugs is the number one problem with deaths.

Yes, selling a substance that is legal while telling the consumer that it is an illegal substance is illegal (did that make sense?). In other words, if one had DXM and put it in pills and went to a club and said "hey, this is MDMA, everybody buy some and have fun", that is considered an illegal act. I don't recall the exact law ATM.

Just remembered something, this is law in USA, might be different for you?

Re: morality of selling Research Chemicals IRL

You could say it's immoral on the grounds that these chemicals are widely untested, relatively new and harmful effects aren't fully known. However at least with RCs you know that it's pure and you know exactly what you're buying which isn't something that can be said for buying on the street. Still because other drugs with more known about them are illegal knew untested drugs will come on the quasi legal market. We know the softer drugs on the illegal market are relatively safe but we don't know long term health effects of RC's and you could say it's immoral to sell something without them knowing the true risk or potential of what they are taking.

Re: morality of selling RC's IRL

Misrepresenting is certainly wrong in all regards, but what about ppl swiy would tell "its pretty much better than any x you'll find around here" but they go around selling it to mates saying it IS x. Swim does think that people should know what they're in for....it seems a pincher, in some areas traditional drugs are uncommon but RC's are obtainable generally everywhere...so to supply a community with something counterfit even when its not explicitly labelled

i'm still calling BS on this one. this random raver I met once used to engage in supplying other ravers with rc's and the only time he would ever sell things was when he had personally taken threshhold, normal, and high doses and felt comfortable in describing hese effects to paint a thorough picture of what was being sold. dropping a line like 'better than x' is absolutely amoral and irresponsible imho. he would literally tell whoemever purchased the rc everything listed in this post prior to allowing them to purchase anything.

Swim has to say that they would be appalled at anybody selling rcs as anything else..if swim did sell any rcs (he doesnt lol) he would feel responsible if anyone who bought off him had a bad trip etc because he didnt take the few minutes to explain what it is and what the dangers are. if they dont want it after hearing all this, its fair enough.
the world definitely doesnt need any more lies, no matter how small they might be

yup. SWIM does not deal drugs, nor has he ever, but he has a friend of a friend that used to, and this person often sold RCs, but he was explicit about what they were, only sold them after he had used them himself several times, etc. The only thing this person left out was the fact that the substances were available online for less money, but this is equivalent to a weed middleman not giving the # of his higherup to a customer. SWIM doesn't feel selling RCs is wrong, but selling them as something they are not, is.

Re: morality of selling Research Chemicals IRL

People SWIY might run into are smart enough that if SWIY told them what he was offering, they'd probably be interested.

SWIM used to get RC's and pass some to friends, he always explained all the important details and wouldn't offer if he felt they were going to overdose despite his warnings.

Passing an RC off as LSD or X or Mescaline (a la microdots) is horrific.

Re: morality of selling Research Chemicals IRL

I'm finding a lot of posts here that seem to imply that people are going to sell RC's as other things. Or maybe not... But why would anyone want to put 2C-I in blotters, or mix 2C-E with flour? or put it in a 2mg per drop solution?

Re: morality of selling Research Chemicals IRL

there bid a question...most of the psychedelics were novel at some point, and granted it boiled down to mdma and lsd being popular...theres a weird judgement being made. For one the chemicals that people desire are popular for a reason..that they work well in most regards. So to say anything is like anything else is trying to tag on its coat tails.

But there is this point that some of the RC's may be better in some respect...but its too much for the entry level druggard to comprehend

"hey you know where to score any tryptamines bro?"
"yeh man, can get some sweet as 2c gel tabs"

So maybe the drug world isn't built for that much variation in product (unlike true comericalism)...when most ppl taking lsd tabs are looking to get twisted,

My Buddha statue told me he can find RCs locally but only in a tight circle of friends who all know the risks of taking RCs and are knowledgeable about the substances they take.

Re: morality of selling Research Chemicals IRL

the thing of it is that there isn't really a demand for research chemicals in the general public, even in the crazy circles my raver friend travels among. He always has to explain himself and say "no it isn't a cross between acid and X. It's completely different and here's why:..."

It always takes a bit of marketing to uncover the demand since the product creates demand just by existing. There's so little awareness that jabbering like an idiot will soon create the demand.
