I'm just pulling numbers out of my ass, but it gets cut multiple times, maybe 20-30x times from the time it's made in a place like Colombia until it gets to a small time dealer in NYC (that's like 3,000 miles). I've never gotten enough for it to be worth testing, but I imagine it's less than 50% pure from a lot of shitty dealers. They're just trying to make the most profit.
It's also all about who you get it from. I bought some a few months ago from a dude my friend knew when I lived up there and it was garbage and was like $80/g. It wasn't washed well or had a bunch of adulterants in it, it had a strong smell and burned like hell, it made our noses bleed. Another friend who has good connects always gets good stuff, some of the best blow I've had (I'm not a conesseur, it's too damn expensive, but I do it when the opportunity presents itself) and other people who have done the same stuff he gets agree.
Ugh that’s awful. I feel very fortuitous to have randomly found a person with ludicrously good stuff. I have had just weird burning foul smelling powder before and I hated it. I’ll get around to acetone washing it one day.
All of the other stuff I’ve tried is 150-200 per ball, and it arrives as a glistening hard slab instead of powder. It’s almost oiley, and tough to separate without using a heated surface. It smells like petrol (and sometimes bananas, I’m guessing that’s how it arrives here!) It feels like nothing when insufflated and a standard line is way too much for me hahaha
I wish I had stuff that good haha
I wish I could share. We haven’t done it in yeeeears, and randomly we discovered someone we’re close to is… I’ll just say, “in the game more than we knew.”
I had always received it in little chunks/powder before, and it took a lot to feel much. I’m guessing it was stepped on a lot. Burned and such.
This stuff? It’s one big shiny slab that’s like… oily? Waxy almost? I heat up a mirror before putting it down so the particulates don’t stick to each other. All of my tests are off the charts for it (I have a full reagent kit and a purity kit.) Absolutely wild. None of it burns at all. The best stuff smells like bananas—you can tell it was smuggled somewhere with a banana shipment!
