Title: Philosofic and economic question.
Post by: wasta on August 04, 2013, 12:48 am
I saw 2c-b for sale on the main site.
A friend of mine makes it all the time in her kitchen. How can they ask on the main site for 10 dollar or even 20 dollar for just 1 pill.
2c-b is so easy to make
 Pihkal (erowid) tells you how.
My friend make sit all the time
She has a friend that makes DMT. At least she can get it whenever she want. And it's homemade too. The only combi I could find on erowid is GHB with 2c-b. And the amount was a small portion of 2c-b.

 Still expensive for a item what is easy to make. But goes for GHB too. Very cheap to make and expensive if you sell.
A profit of 99% is not bad...

I do not see a single question here. Neither Philosophic nor economic. Also before practicing philosophy or economics, study up on spelling and grammar.

The question is why people spend so much money for items that are so easy to make.
People buy 50ml ghb for 50 euro, while you can have 1,5 litre for those 50 euro.

And indeed 9 days or not even 200 hours isn't enough to learn Arabic or Chinese, but I think the English language sticked to my brain quite well. But go to China for 9 days and see how much you can remember. Or from Morocco to Irak to learn Arabic. 9 days, and see how you do .

I live on the continent of Europe , so I read Le Monde and Le Figaro and Der Spiegel. No National Geohorrific for my eyes.
English is a waste of time. I am going for Chinese. Translate 4 pages of English language into Chinese and you end up with just one page. Every word is just one or two caracters. I am not going to invest more time in English, this has to do.
Like Latin, That's the way where the English language will go. Even in the U.S.A. they will speak Spanish , very soon.
Duh!

So rather than coming out here and ranting about it in broken English, why not set up shop and make a fortune?

Because first you need to import 2c-h, likely from China, and it is liquid chemical looking sketch that isn't fun to get past customs, and then you need to source Bromine, and it is a highly dangerous chemical that needs to be handled with extreme care, and it is really hard to get it without triggering all kinds of shit, and once you get 2c-h and even more difficult elemental bromine, you need some lab glass and probably a fume hood if you don't want to die from the bromine, and then after you mix it all together and clean it up you need to find a pill presser to press tabs for you and in USA they charge about $1 per tab and require about enough product for 10,000 tabs to even take on your offer, and after you ship them the raw materials and they press your tabs and hopefully don't scam you or bust you, you need to get 10,000 plus tabs of schedule one narcotics shipped back to you via the mail. The cost of doing all that means that you sell the 2c-b tab that cost you $1.10 to make for $10 or even $20.

In finance we call the amount of money expected on return of a risky investment over the return of a risk-free investment, the risk premium. In drug dealing I use the same term, but give it a new definition. The risk premium is the amount of money you charge over and above the price if the item were legal. It costs money for people to risk their freedom.
