The stuff looked great, but seemed to have a bit of a strange taste, so I did an acetone wash (using glacial temp. acetone dried with freshly produced anhydrous magnesium sulfate overnight). The taste seemed to improve, although very little mass loss was observed in the wash. However, I noticed that the melting and boiling points of the gear were extremely low, and this made me suspicious. Using a MARQUIS REAGENT test kit that I recently obtained, I tested HT's gear on a whim... and observed ABSOLUTELY NO EVOLUTION OF COLOR whatsoever. I was stunned, and skeptical, because usually I feel like HT has decent gear. I proceeded to test the marquis against compounds of known identity next to another testing of HT's gear, to serve as controls. MDA and BK-MDMA produced the typical purple/black and yellow respectively, while HT's gear bubbled and fizzed but produced absolutely no color change whatsoever.Methamphetamine HCl SHOULD TURN ORANGE/BROWN with Marquis. Absolutely nothing here.Whatever this shit is, it seems to be 100% devoid of any methamphetamine.I documented all of this with photographs, but I'm not sure where to host them right now, are there any good tor-based image hosting sites up still?At any rate, I'm going to contact HT and see if I can get some explanation for this. Hopefully he will make things right.This is the DEA's textbook reaction for isopropylbenzylamine. If there was even trace amounts of methamphetamine in the gear, you would obvserve some color change, so I assume this gear would just be pure N-isoIt does have some amount of stimulant properties, so I'm thinking it could have 4-MMC in it since that would also produce the same reaction. Actually, I've been suspicious of vendors using Mephedrone as a cut for a while now because sometimes I smell traces of that odd cathinone smell on batches of gear that I've gotten. I've tested this batch numerous times now, hoping for even a hint of the characteristic red, but even using a large amount of the gear, the most color change I got was a tiny hint of yellow. The extremely low melting/boiling point makes me think that it could be a mix of MSM and mephedrone.Really? 4-MMC? I was under the impression that even the guys who claim to sell 4-MMC usually only sell 3-MEC or 4-EMC (4-EMC or whatever the other one is...). I've never smelled cat in the meth I've gotten off the road; I don't care much for it, personally, but I've ordered it twice and the smell is hard to mistake. Never noticed that... though before I end up sounding like I'm defending vendors, I'm really beginning to think that I've been just plain fucking wrong to do so in the past. Well, on at least a handful of occasions, anyway. I've got two orders sitting here, and I don't think either of these fucking sacks have meth in them. I'm not sure enough to cast doubts on anybody, but still, it looks like things are going from bad to worse in area 54...(area 54 being -- well, look at the link for meth on the road)
