Title: Drug Testing
Post by: TFMP on March 21, 2012, 07:51 am
It would be great to have a section in the forums, where ppl can post test results of products they have bought here on SR.

I think this is a good example: http://dkn255hz262ypmii.onion/index.php?topic=15749.0

There are countries like Holland and Switzerland to just name two, where stuff can be tested anonymously, reliable and for free. Don't be fooled, there's a lot of shit sold around here just like on the streets and some vendors know their marketing stuff and will have you fooled without you ever knowing.

While this might invite some of the shady vendors to to post false information to hurt sales of the competition, I believe it will be a minority that will be called out by the community anyway.

So yes, if you like to see a drug testing section, please sign, thanks.

Don't know how much good a petition will do, but I'd pay extra $$ if any vendor posted pictures of test results.

To be honest, I'd rather hear from customers who have tried/tested the goods independently , a vendor is always gonna post a good looking test report, they are very easy to fake. I don't believe a vendor would ever show a report that shows his product containing crap, I know I wouldn't.  Vendor tests would kind of defeat the purpose of such a suggested forum.

What about a third-party vendor that had access to all the necessary equipment to test drugs? They could post the results of everything in the forum, vendors could add "Certified XX% YYYY by DrugTester", or whatever, to their listings. I think it could be a pretty lucrative spot for someone to hop in and take. Granted, I don't really know about the equipment needed or the costs that go into testing different substances. Thoughts?

^^^ That's actually a good idea and that person wouldn't really need any equipment. As I mentioned there are countries where you can bring/send your stuff and it will be tested professionally. So all it needs is someone who lives in such a country, has got the time and wants to make some money.  For sure the "certified by tester" tag would be something that helps sellers and buyers alike.

+1
That's the same idea I had. I posted it in the thread TF linked. If someone in the SR community has access to a lab, they could definitely make a great deal of money testing products for SR patrons who want to know the purity of the drugs their buying. In addition to making some bank, they'd also be getting free drugs (if there's any untainted sample left after testing). If I had access to a lab and the know-how, I'd fill the position in a heartbeat.

Absolutely! That's a very good point!

No one know if it is the same stuff which were tested than the stuff they sell!
That is the reason why i buy the stuff and i don´t want to post tests of free samples!

I was thinking more along the lines of this:
-A person who has access to a lab that can test for purity of drugs, creates a vendor account on SR (you or someone else).
-He/she posts a listing offering to test the quality/purity of any drug for a fee
-the results would be sent to the person who bought the service indicated in the listing, and would only be available to that person.
-they would know the quality of that particular batch

Yes, batches change, so it would only be applicable to one batch. I guess the biggest caveat would be that a buyer who received less pure results on the drugs they bought and sent in for testing could get disgruntled and go public with the results, and try to ruin a vendor's reputation. So maybe it IS best to just offer this service to vendors. Then they decide if they want to show the results and advertize the certified quality check in their product listing title. But then again, you'd have to trust that a vendor wouldn't advertize the certification for a new batch that hasn't been tested, claiming it to the same batch that was.

A lap with which you can test stuff is very expensive and chemists can´t do this at work!
So it will be very difficult to find someone who can do this!

What would you need access to besides a GC/MS?
