It's not that expensive on darknet markets.
- cpncrunch 9y agoIf I was going to use ketamine, I'd prefer to get it from a reputable source.
- contingencies 9y agoReputation is the key service of darknet markets. If you would prefer to pay $380 extra every four weeks, that's your call.
- starpilot 9y agoAre darknet markets still easy to get into? I used SR when it was around, with events in the interim I'm a bit more hesitant.
- cpncrunch 9y agoBy reputable I mean manufactured in an approved facility to Health Canada standards (or equivalent). It seems unlikely that some dude on darknet would meet these standards. It's like saying that your local drug dealer has a good reputation because he hasn't killed too many people with fentanyl.
- contingencies 9y agoDarknet stores are mostly distributors not manufacturers of pharmacological products. They are usually sourced from corrupt legitimate medical world supply chains. The economic reality is that there is almost no margin in wholesaling some of this stuff. Starting a yet another factory to make off-patent generic drugs would cost more than the probable medium term profits, especially given that you can more easily acquire from an existing producer. More recent / patented / specialized pharma products are probably harder to synthesize. Therefore, you can rest fairly assured a large-scale supplier with good reputation on the darknet markets is selling real stuff. This is true particularly in the case of generic drugs where, like ketamine, there is already zero patent global production.
- cpncrunch 9y ago> corrupt Yeah, that's the problem. Are you aware that ketamine is sometimes laced with fentanyl? https://nowtoronto.com/news/why-is-fentanyl-showing-up-in-street-drugs-/ https://nowtoronto.com/news/why-is-fentanyl-showing-up-in-st... Not really something I'd be willing to take the chance on, just to save a few bucks.

- contingencies 9y agoTo be clear, I live in China and have been here for nearly two decades. You read a BBC article reporting translated third party information on the internet.
- nefitty 9y agoI don't think DNM's are the place to direct people experiencing severe depression. It's not only K they might find there. This directive is also potentially damaging to the above-ground progress advocates have been fighting so hard to achieve. I don't think I need to go into the safety issues around self-administration, either.
- Cyberdog 9y agoEven assuming the product is safe, using darknet markets also has legal issues. (I don't agree that it should, but it does.) "Overpaying" $380 to be administered a known safe dose of ketamine in a place surrounded by medical professionals and know you're in the clear legally sure sounds like a fair deal to me when the alternative could end up involving an arrest record and possible prison time, even if everything involved with self-dosing goes just fine.
