As with most things... America is slow to catch on. I'll reckon the penalties for possessing these chemicals will be twice as harsh as most countries. Everything has to be bigger and better here apparently...
Slow to catch on drug laws? Really? I thought we were the first to ban everything. We invented it. Our motto is "Ban it, ask questions later." Or maybe it's been revised to "Ban it and just shut up about it." Not sure.
To be fair, aside from a few obscure countries in Europe, most of the RCs people indulge in are illegal where they live. It's just different in England because the RC market was tiny in England until Mephedrone came around, and most people there aren't aware that you can safely order illegal chemicals without any problems (aside from, at worst, a letter from customs and no drugs - unless of course you are ordering them all the time and get caught multiple times) The legal stuff in the UK sucks aside from aMT, so maybe order some illegals, there are precautions you can take if you want to be extra safe, which I'm not going to go into, but really if you're in the UK, don't buy all the 6-APB, 5-IAI etc shite, get some aMT, some street drugs, or order some better RCs from abroad
Seems to be a few more different and possibly more intersting RCs more easily available now though than there were when everyone was just stocking kilos of mephedrone. I tried 6-APB before it sold out, it was good but still no MDMA. Preferable to mephedrone though if you don't like the more coke/speed side of that.
The only thing available in the UK that can not be shipped to the US at current is methoxetamine, and that has nearly NO anecdotal info. The whole Benzo Fury/6-APB thing is largely a clusterfuck. Actually, more RCs are explicitly illegal in the UK than in the US. At least our analogue laws allow for some wiggle room.
Have you sampled Benzo Fury is it worth investigating? It looked a bit steeper in price than I remember Methylone and Mephedrone being.
I have not sampled it because there have been too many vendors claiming to have pure 6-APB powder that turned out to be chem X with all sorts of impurities and adverse reactions. No thank you, please! And the one place that might have good stuff is ridiculously overpriced. Honestly, I don't care much about it right now.
