So here's the deal. The reason I even came to SR in the first place was to buy a week's supply of benzos and a week's supply of alternate painkillers to I could kick a hardcore Tramadol addiction. The reason I got so addicted to them in the first place is because I have total access in the country I live in. They're not really regulated and they're DIRT cheap. Right now it costs between $20-25 US Dollars (depending on which of the thousands of places you can buy them here) for a box of 100 50mg. Tramadols.
The thing is, I'm feeling a bit of an ethical dilemma. That is to say, what kind of dick does it make me to have gone through hell getting off this shit (and it IS a horrible kick) and then turn around and sell it to other people? Then again, I'm not anyone's Grandpa either. We all gotta make our own choices.
Does it make me a dick to even be considering the possibility of selling something that almost destroyed me liver and gave me the worst withdrawals I've ever had? Thoughts?

I'm sorry to hear about your addiction. And I can relate. When I went to Southeast Asia Tramadol was everywhere and so freaking cheap. I had a tooth problem out there and I bought some to help with the pain. It worked very well and aside from that it had a slight mood elevating effect to it. So I went to several places and kept buying more and brought it back with me. Well, that was gone pretty quick and then a family member got a prescription and she couldn't take it because of her liver problems and have been giving me the bottles.
Now I just take it for no reason because I love the way it makes you feel. I go through it quick though and then go weeks or months without having it. It's a really under rated 'narcotic'. I've been thinking about purchasing some here on SR to keep on hand (in case I have a bad day/headache/valid pain/need to get through something), but I'd probably end up burning through it again.
With that said, you can't be responsible for other peoples' choices of how they use drugs and I don't think you should feel bad. Personally, I know I love Tramadol a little too much, but I'm going to get it from someone if I want it, so it may as well be you.

So do you feel something if you gonna put your 'clients' thru it ?
I would believe it makes you a at least mid-size dick.
If you were Grandpa, Would you give it to your grandchilds ? How does it differ from your neighbours ?

Hah hah. as i like to answer that...
I say you can't be totally dick at least, since you are having this dilemma. but do you care if you are a Dick ?

I'm firmly of the belief that what people choose to put into their bodies is their business. I certainly don't think there should be any law against selling tramadol and other such types of drugs... but I also think that everyone has to make choices for themselves in regards to what they believe is ethical, or even if it's not unethical is it really something they want to do.
I've never took tramadol. not really into prescription type stuff. I've took valium and etizolam a few times. I wouldn't sell things like tramadol personally because I think they have far more potential for abuse than for recreation. I wouldn't sell heroin either, for the same reason... it seems more often than not that it has a negative effect on the user, often a life destroying effect. I don't want it on my conscience that I am supplying people with something that (in a lot of cases) is causing them misery and suffering. I support their right to choose to take these drugs, but I wouldn't want to be the one supplying them. Without coming off as too much of a hippy, I do believe there is karma (not some mystical force, just a general principle that if you behave badly towards others you will end up suffering yourself as well).
That being said, that's all just my personal preference. I support your right to sell whatever drugs you want... and it doesn't necessarily make you a dick, at least you are considering the fact that you suffered with it yourself and trying to decide whether you are ok with selling them. If you were a total dick that thought wouldn't even cross your mind :)

Yeah, I guess I DO care about being a dick. I mean, I try not to be and I don't think I am. The thing is, if I sell this shit I'm complicit in someone's eventual nightmare, but on the other hand, they're going to get it here anyway so it might as well be cheap and the real deal. I dunno. Still haven't decided. I know there's $ to be made is all, and I could use some. Couldn't we all?

See, I can't go a day without it or I start getting brain zaps and serious withdrawals. I'm up to around 12-14 on an average day, sometimes 16-20. Anyway, thanks for the input.

Don't turn your back on your conscience. If you feel like it would be the wrong thing to do, even though you could make money the guilt you will feel won't be worth it. Here's another thing to consider that is what made me decide to only sell weed as a vendor here on SR. I'm just speaking for myself, and everyone needs to do what they are comfortable with. IRL I sell a highly addictive drug in addition to weed. But I only sell it to people who I know first-hand are already users. I would not sell it to someone using it for their first time and I DEFINITELY wouldn't sell it to underage kids. On SR, you can't tell if someone is already an addict and you're just helping them out with something they need. And you can't tell how old someone is. You could be creating new addicts every day. And you could be selling to kids without knowing it. I couldn't live with the thought that I had ruined kids' lives by getting them started on an addictive drug when I knew that they would be better off never trying that drug. I couldn't do that just to make a profit. For me, that would be seriously bad karma and I couldn't live with knowing I did that.

The best customer is an informed customer - if you sell it make sure to tell the good and the bad of the drug. Put up a notice that you don't want orders from kids or first timers - have the notice graphic enough that the weak willed will be scared off.
