Legal to ask around about where to buy?

Is it legal to ask where to buy drugs?
Like asking a bartender, or a guy in a bar, or even a homeless person.
No possession... just asking something like, "Hey where can I get some herb around here without getting locked up?"
Can one get arrested for this?

I can't see what law it would be breaking. It might be wise to not go asking street people though, as you might get robbed. Any dive bar in town would be a fine place to get weed or snow. Ask around after you have a couple drinks. A pack of cigarettes slid across the bar with cash in it comes back with herb in it.

tyvm... good tip...
I almost did this at a local place until I found out that the manager is an ex-cop!
I might do this but not at my regular hang-out. Maybe go to a place a couple of towns up that's a little sleazier and known for moving a lot of droogz.

No, it is explicitly illegal to attempt to buy drugs.

What?
What would the charge be?
I thought that all of the charges were for possession.

Best Answer its being in possession of what you believed to be a controlled substance, for instance if you bought what you though was an E but it turns out to be an aspirin you have still committed an offence
NB this is UK law, USA may be different ?

There are several possible charges.

Similar to solicitation of prostitution. The cops can get you the minute you verbally make the deal.
