 Its the same way here in the US but its way more worth it to buy on the street. for me street coke is probley around 60% and costs 50$ a gram and coke here is like 120$ and 80% pure.

Its like comparing apples to oranges.

That 20% makes a tremendous amount of difference.  Its like a total different drug..


Its similar to some who prefer mid quality bud to AAA grade bud.  It is a total different type of high.

In the UK, the BEST BEST BEST coke your gona get on the street is gonna be between 45-30%, and that's if you very lucky to find a dealer like that. mostly street coke is absolute cut up bullshit with less that 15% coke.

Can anyone vouch for this and compare to SR quality?

With terrible street coke, the stuff between 5%-25%: I take a line, probably about 200mg to start with, it burns, like really, really fucking burns my nose and doesn't really do jack shit for my high 5 minutes in.

Give it another 10 minutes, I start feeling "something" - now, something is always good... I get a little high for maybe another 10 minutes, then the high leaves and it's almost like I'm coming down already. I start to get paranoid and angry, like everyone has a problem with, if I'm at the pub or something I would assume I would go in to fight mode.

I get a real sore head, as well.

( I literally blame all the cuts on coke for the outrageous behavior of all the coked out youths - real coke is euphoric, not shite that turns you in to a ball of rage)

Even though I now feel like shit, I almost want to take more - it's fiendish as fuck.

I snort all my "coke" for the night, go home and struggle to sleep.

For 24 hours after I feel like shit, almost like I have been poisoned.

Now on to real coke, like the 80%+ stuff on SR:

I take a tiny line, maybe 60mg-120mg, it doesn't burn at all, almost like sniffing air. After about 2-4 minutes, I start to feel warm... and happy... real fucking happy.

I feel fucking great, at this moment I realize exactly why cocaine got so popular in the world.

I feel like Scarface! (LOL) Huge motivation, chatty, not a problem in the world. A real nice dopamigenic euphoria.

The high lasts about an hour and a half and if I decide that's all I want to snort I can usually say no to anymore - it isn't half as fiendish as the street crap.

Occasionally I'll feel a little dodgy but nothing major. 

At least that's my take on the drug that can be so beautiful when not abused or fucked with.


It's pretty crazy to think you could buy one g of good coke of silk road, cut it to like 10 grams and it would still be considered 'ok' by the street snorters.

(Anyway who thinks this is a good idea, don't do it - you're just giving the drug a bad name and making it easier for the LE to show the world the bad sides of drugs instead of the good)

Is it really that good?!

In a local paper of mine, the police issued a report on cocaine - taking like 10 samples of coke they had taken off people in the prior month or two, and it turned out the average percentage of actual cocaine in the "coke" was like 7% which is terrible.

Me talking about cutting the SR coke by 10 would make it statistically better than the coke in my area - if it's really 90% like vendors say then that would make 10 grams of 9% cocaine - which would be higher than the average for the area I live in.

But, yes. Area can play a huge role on purity - like the amphetamine going around my area it the moment is probably one of the best in the country, and it will continue that way until the person bringing here is caught, if they ever are.
