Foop said: A few days ago I got a call from a friend telling me that his friend and partner in crime were getting a shipment of some mushrooms at $35 an 1/8 (I know, overpriced but shrooms can be very hard to come by in New Hampshire). So for the past couple days I've been absolutely stoked. I love mushrooms more than any drug on the face of the planet and had not tripped by myself in a long time. These past few days I've been planning out my trip to make sure it would be as mental as possible.
So tonight I head out to go pick them up with my friend all giddy with excitement. We call the guy to tell him we are on our way to pickup when he tells us that the shipment is bunk and that 5 people who they sold to the other night, came back and said the shrooms were fake. Now this mutual friend of ours only gave us this heads up because we are long friends of his and he did not want to screw us over but him and his partner are still out there selling these bunk shrooms to unsuspecting people for $35-40 a pop.
This just pisses me off. Drug dealers these days not giving a fuck about their customers and only in it for the money, and willing to screw people over to make it. Whatever happened to the days of the honest dealers, the ones who were in it to provide a service and not to make a quick buck? The ones who treated you like an actual customer and a person? Not these drug slinging plebs who like the idea of being a drug dealer more than actually being a drug dealer, the ones who act as if you are inconveniencing them by calling them up on Friday night looking to score. We're the ones giving you business, giving you our hard earned money and they treat us like nothing more than an inept piggy bank.
I want to hear your thoughts, does the current state of the drug business make you long for the old days?
Just because one person is being an asshole doesn't mean "the days have changed". They sure have not over here. Eventually people realize they make WAY more money selling legit shit over a period of time rather than making a quick $250 and won't be able to sell to those same people ever again.

You missed my point, Im not saying that all drug dealers are shady assholes trying to scam people. My main point was that the drug business has changed from a mutual friendship between dealer and customer, where the dealer is grateful for the business and in return the customer is given what they payed for. To me, the drug scene has become one of convenience for the dealers, they think that they write the game because they have the product that we need and because of this prices get jacked up and the quality of a product never matches what was promised to you.

dude me an my friend have been dealing,small-time very very very small about an o a week, and we always give people the exact amount of weed that they asked for because no matter what it is a profit, buy an o for 350 sell 350 get a free 1/8, sweet deal when other people pay your pot fund, with weed that is amazing and still cheep our customers say. and unless people piss us off in some huge way, Like sneaking into our house and steeling a quad, they don't hear anything from us. the only person that we don't sell weed to at all, but instead catnip, has for about 6 months been trying to get people the think that we raped her, and got her pregnant. the funny thing is that the first time i saw her i was handing her a bag then the 2nd time i was handing her catnip. she's fucking dumb, she's not getting fat, pudgy or anything just more and more ugly. dumb people don't need pot. only people saying that their pregnant due to rape when their not at all are dumb enough to make it onto that list. but in this town i only buy from people with a scale and that i know but yeah i know what you mean i fucking hate it.

the problem with drug dealers are that the majority of them are in it for the money, not for the good times that are to come with what they supply. find your own rock solid connect and stick with, hes the guy that doesn't get a lot of business and is still one of your best friends, you kick it even when your not buying from him. my guy(s) are usually my best friends and any beef between he and i is solved over a ride on the chillum train to a quaint little town called smokeabowlsville.

A little piece of advice.... what your doing is not that smart.
Selling FAKE drugs to a psychotic chick known for lying and causing problems?
What are you gonna do when she lies and tells the cops your some bigtime dealer cause shes pissed you didn't pork her ugly ass?
Be careful man... don't sell to ANYONE you couldn't trust to not rat you out if they get arrested or pissed at you.
...oh yea... NEVER admit to selling dr00gz on an internet forum...

Every younger weed dealer except the one I have now ALWAYS ripped me off. 8ths were a point or 2 short. Ounces sometimes a gram.
Or the dealers that hook you up enough times to think your getting it phat when you weight it out at home, but then over a long time of weighing it out and many coming up very short, you realize in the long run you've averaged out LESS then the amount you've been paying for.
PLAYED.
A true dealer isn't a dumbass. Their customer base is small and close. They don't do "drop offs" in shady parking lots.
Yea many kids and young adults out there have been fucking up the game.
But there are a lot of older and younger people alike that know good + safe business tactics.
The best dealers I've had invite me into their home (if they can't trust me they shouldn't be selling to me) and smoke me out for 30+ minutes and shoot the shit! They weigh out my shit in front of me, and bid me a good day. Even if I'm buying just a gram. Good customer service, good safety procedure.
I gurantee these assclowns dealing all haphazardly and shadely are either gonna
1. Get Arrested, 2. Get jumped 3. Quit dealing cause everyone they know stops buying from them.
Karma will prevail.

What honest dealers of the past are you referring to? Call me crazy, but the drug trade was ugly even 30 years ago, from what I've been told by the older heads around my city. It's too easy to romanticize and glorify a past era...
It's a good reminder every time you get ripped off that the world is not some rainbow, unicorn, and puppy-filled place that works entirely for the benefit of happiness. People who get ripped off are suckers, and there's nothing wrong with being a sucker. I've been cheated and ripped off many times (and there's probably something wrong with being cheated repeatedly), but we're dealing with an underground, and it's to be expected. Heck, even in the mainstream world, you've got to have a level of sense enough to be paying attention to a situation and know if you're getting played.
Getting cheated is a lesson in reality. Losing a few bucks over bunk pills, fungus, or pieces of paper is a cheap price to pay.

For real. Unless it's ultrachronic and you have absolutely no other connections, your O's shouldn't be running you $12.50/gram

a wise comment here. if your dude is even remotely shady, don't deal with him. even if he is your last option, isn't it better to wait and get what you want instead of going to him because hes your only resource.

When you have a mushroom opportunity in New Hampshire, you take it because it could literally be months and months before you get another chance at them. And it is not as if he was some new connect I was trying out, I had boughten multiple things at multiple times from him and always come away happy. Im just relieved that I was able to avoid getting ripped off, but I am still angered that many other people in my area, right now at this moment, are getting ripped off.

Honestly I think it's different everywhere. I deal with some really great people normally, but I'll admit it: I've dealt with some bullshit recently.
This is why I always try to get to know my dealers a little bit(if i can) before I do business with them. It's so fucking easy to get screwed over these days, especially if you're dealing with new people. It really just depends on who you deal with IMO.

A lot has to do with the way you carry yourself, and act. I make it known that i don't fuck around, and rarely encounter a problem. When i do, its either somebody with a gun, or somebody i'll get my money back from.

Since when has the black market been about men of honour? It's an unregulated market, run by those that are willing to take the risks for profit. So skimping, or flat out lies, hell, as long as it brings them profit, so what?
It's not a good system. I'm just glad my dealer is a reliable girl.

Read the posts, I myself was not ripped off, but others have. Im not saying that the drug business used to be full of fine upstanding people with nothing but strong moral fiber, there have always been asshole dealers but they used to be the minority, now they have become the majority.
