can you order research chemicals legally

such as
2c-e
2c-i

 

2C-E and 2C-I are unscheduled in the US, but they could be part of the "Analog Drug Laws", needless to say its a grey area.

 

It depends on the country you live in. Most westernised countries they probably wont be scheduled, but will likely be covered by analog laws. erowid.org can be useful in finding out which countries have made them illegal. As already said its a grey area at best

 

Altough they are now scheduled in the u.s. you can still find vendors who will ship to the u.s.

 

they are scheduled?

 

Nope 2ci and 2ce are not scheduled ( not in the US anyway) , they are however analoges of 2cb , meaning they are similar in effect and structure. Legal problems probably would be encountered if you were caught dealing teh stuff tho.

 

whats the likelihood a shipment of 2c-i from, say, canada would be confiscated coming into the US?

 

The real deal is that it's going to depend on the amount confiscated. As far as personal use amount - you'll get a letter from customs letting you know that it was confiscated. As far as a larger (bulk) amount that could be construed as intent to distribute, hopefully you had it sent to a safe address because it'll get raided.

 

Even if they are legal they are not approved by the FDA for human consumption. If you were caught with a large amount you could definitely face intent to distribute charges. You could also face possession with the intent to ingest with smaller amounts

2C-E/2C-I are analogs of 2C-B and therfor, illegal in the US. Even though Erowid says they "could be considered" and there are several "pending cases" if you follow the links you will see that they actually sentenced them in 2005. One of them even received a life sentence.

 

Well that's gotta suck, huh?

 

How much would attract attention? are we talking a gram or like a kilo? I mean if people get away with it, then is it just sort of a random thing? I dont really have a 'safe' address, I have things that are very illegal, like most of you Im sure.

 

^^friend if you want to discuss things like this further it is best in private forums or PMs

and also if considering delving into the world of ordering an unsafe address isnt wise...

 

get a trusty buddy to receive the package for you. Or get a stupid buddy that won't care what's inside the packet, to receive it for you; tell him/her you're going to be out of town when it comes, and you want him/her to receive it for you.

Get the adress of an abandoned apartment or house.

Or get a P.O. Box.

 

if you have very stricte analogue laws in your country they potentially can extend the laws to any derivation (as the laws dont specify the products but rather the key features of chemical make-up ) - the room for interpretation is huge with thise type of laws (not many countries fully introduced them though)...

 

Is this actually a good idea? What if someone, for example, had a PO Box at a very small post office in a small town. If that person was going to be away for the summer, and the manager of the post office had offered to package and forward his or her mail informally to his or her summer address without actually filling out a formal "Change of Address" form, would that be more or less ideal?

 

Well the manager would have your summer address, so that's where the cops would go. The idea is to find a way to set up a P.O. box without an ID, or with a fake ID. Having the package forwarded to a real address defeats the purpose.

 

DANM, I just ordered 1 Ton of 2c-i from a Chinese Manufacturer, costed me a fortune..
