"This is a new stamp going around Williamsburg (Brookyln) . Its alright, but when snorted, it has a bit of a weird taste. The count is alright, powder is beige, a little flaky, and breaks up well."

STINGRAY (Paterson, NJ)

"This is one of the other best stamps around Paterson and has had many different names. Originally it was purple "boom". Then it was this purple "Stingray". Most recently a purple stamp called "GOYA" . All the same dope and all very good. Fat bags and good quality white d. Possibly better than bugatti? I go back and forth on which is better. Both very high quality and never a let down so don't hold back if you see this--you may even do 80% your regular dose and feel just as good."

OZONE (Lakewood, NJ)

"Here is a ticket called "OZONE" (2 pics enclosed)

These showed on the plate (scale) that they averaged 35-45 mg.'s each. Already off to a bad start....

These are from Lakewood, NJ and were a fair count for the brick, but the price was ridiculous, and the quality was absolutely utterly poor. Not one moment of enjoyment to be had, unless tolerance is beginning to rear it's ugly face.

Darker brown, bitter flaky and chunky pseudo-powder, tastes like the real thing, but didn't NOT even get the slightest buzz. I wonder if these were well prepared 'dummies'. I just don't know.... Avoid. Totally. "

VENOM (2)

"***[NOTE: below is direct eevidence of a nod while typing (lol)]***"

"Extra-nice packaging really jumps out at you. the "venom" label (including aagw...................................................s .....................................                          

somewhat lobstery-looking scorpion) isn't even a stamp, it's a roll of thin tape with the same picture on it over and over. it doubles as an insignia and a seal. very classy boys, i was starting to lose faith in your professionalism when i picked up "taxi" the other day. 

Anyway, pretty fat count though not totally uniform from bag to bag. seven or eight I'd say -- call it eight to be charitable. If you put it in your nose it's got a stingy/sweet taste that kind of reminds you of fruity pebbles. 

Definitely a jolt of mellow, maybe cut with benzos? either way, pretty nice, but with no iv cant really say for rush.

Too early to give an informed opinion on the legs, but i like where it's going at the moment -- seven's about right. in sum: some mighty fine dope, and the $80 tag makes it that much sweeter ~~ <((\o_0/))^"

August v/a Rundown (Camden, NJ): I-Dope/Bring A Friend/No Parking/USDA

"The following stamps are all from Camden, NJ and ALL of them are Philly-style Double-Seals, with the small square bags in an outer mini-ziploc bag. Good for keeping greedy hands from screwing with the cookie-jar. ;)

All stamps were weighed, net and gross, on a micro-gm scale, just for the hell of it! 

(And, to see how badly we are being ripped off....)"

"First up is a stamp named 'I-DOPE'. (2 pics)

Count is so-so, around 40-50 mg.'s each. A LONG way off from the "Industry Standard" of 1 point each. (A "point" is .1/g or 100mg.'s)

Quality was decent. Nice, grayish white soft powder. Acceptable potency. Nice nod after hoovering 3 of these rascals. "

R: n/a

C: 5

Q: 7

----------------------------------- 

"Next up is a stamp called 'BRING A FRIEND'. 

Nice count (all things considered), around a half-point each (50mg.'s +/-) GREAT potency, and LONG-LASTING feel-good high and nod! Quite energetic, too, if I do say so myself. My favorite of this assortment."

R: n/a

C: 7

Q: 8

-------------------------------------

"Next up we have one I have encountered a few times called 'NO PARKING'. 

Count was very depressing for $10 per bag. Lucky if each bag had 25 to 35 mg.'s. Folks, this is UNACCEPTABLE!! That is a pathetic 1/3 of a POINT!! I mean, WTF?!?! Such GREED in Camden as of late, as well as numerous other unspeakable dramas....good grief!

Quality was GOOD, but not near that of BRING A FRIEND."

R: n/a

C: 3

Q: 6

--------------------------------------

"Finally, we have a rather unique Camden stamp. 'USDA' and Logo in red ink on a small white square bag.

These were the largest of the four, containing on average nearly 60-80 mg.'s each. Now, THATS more like it! 

This was some really nice, fluffy off-white powder, that hoovered very deliciously. A very gentle, and clean high, with an air of energy to it.

I really enjoyed these."

Hey Junkies, your favorite girl E.V.E. here....

Presenting Venom, from the Williamsburg, Brooklyn area. I have to admit, I was really giddy when I saw this stamp, as a scorpion is the symbol of my astrological sign. Pretty good dope, not as good as Hellboy© (which is widely considered the best stamp Brooklyn currently has to offer) but a good alternative.

TAXI

Hello junkie delinquents, your girl EVE here...

I present TAXI, from the same crew who does Hellboy. Your average Brooklyn dope - you get a good nod going on & a pleasant rush, with a decent count. Basically, if it was a woman, it would be your girl-next-door; pretty enough to a turn a head or two, but not pretty enough to stop traffic.

UPDATE - I must have been high when I originally wrote this. This stuff sucks. Takes way too much to just get right, let alone high. UGH.

CLEANUP

Hey Jynxie, your girl in the hustle, EVE here. 
CLEAN UP (Immediately thinking of the Barney song is a pretty good litmus test for if you're a child of the 90's) from Brooklyn, delivery again, no specific area (considering open air is pretty much dead & delivery rules, why do people bother with specific areas?) 
Finally, some decent stuff! Really good rush, good legs, my only complaint would be that it might be a bit too "sleepy" but sometimes it's hard to tell if it is the junk or just me, because I am a seriously sleepy bitch, to the point where I'm starting to think if I wasn't so tall I might be the offspring of that snow white dame & her narcoleptic little person lover (because you know she got it on with those seven dudes--but don't google it---It'll just kill your dreams)

BEAR (Koala/Panda) "Nitro" (Camden, NJ)

"Well, well, well... Down at the market, some of the 'elders' recommended a somewhat obscure little brand, that acts like  a stick of dynamite. It is locally called "NITRO", because of it's potency. The bag has what looks to be a Panda Bear on it. (China White? hint hint)  Also, reminds me a lot of the Grateful Dead bear. It is THE WHITEST H powder I have ever seen. I must say, upon first contact with new gear, I test the waters. Just a line. Wait...and see whats what. So, this time, the bags were looking quite light, so I figured, blow the whole bag to test it! Wow... what the hell happened!?!? About 5 minutes, I guess, I felt this warm, gettting warmer pressure in my head, like it was gonna explode... Then, the warmth was working its way down to even my toes. From snorting. A VERY noticeable lack of bitterness intensity, very CLEAN is my best way to describe this stuff. I got such a serious nod from that ONE little bag... I just did a second (I usually blow 3 of "good gear" to get a little nod) about 4 hours later. My girl asked for a bump before she left, so the bag was 1/3 or so light. This stuff really is ass kickingly STRONG. I had that same heat building in the head, to toes, then a heavy nod. I thought "GAS" was strong!! It was said to be back, and we went to the block where the GAS boys were to grab some. We got sidetracked by this 'hood elder'. He KNEW the deal! Thats the BOMB stuff, but was a tannish powder. When he told of the "NITRO", we were of course skeptical. Very VERY deceiving, with the cute bear, and no type."

BADA BING/Bada Been (Camden, NJ)

"This is my first submission/review, so I'll give it a shot... No pun intended! :P  This is whats happenin' here in South Jersey. We're talkin' Camden. Tried to hook up with the regular boys, but there's been a lot of Metro activity, so everyone keeps it moving. No "GAS", the usual BOMB material out here... So, with GAS missing from door #1, we went to door #2, and were able to get what was said to be 'some fire, son', named "BADA BING". Very fat, SSB (small square-bag) Classic Philly style Double-Seals; Very potent. Highest quality since "GAS". This material is grayish-tan ultra-fine powder. No bangin' it here. Just goes thru the nose! Very clean, and real strong. Count is excellent." 

"Something strange, (see photo below), one of the bags was named "BARA BEEM". Exact same material, didn't even notice this till we got back... I wonder if they was tryin to just do a play on words, as they sure didn't give any 'Play' on the order... ;) I mean, I could see them namin it along the same lines 'bada bing - bada boom' or something, so it's still a mystery! Figured you might get a laugh out of this. Gonna be giving another update soon. Material called "KISS". We shall see...."

Maybe the guy typesetting the stamp was suffering from nod (double) vision? Also, perhaps my mind is totally in the gutter (er..) but doesn't it look like "BARE PEEN" when glanced at?

P.S. These "BADA BING" brands pictured, and the "GAS" (not pictured/unavailable) are currently  reputed to have caused many a hot shot O/D, so Be careful!!

Thanks for this awesome blog! Peace..."

"Finally! I love it when a new connect happens. These are from NYC; which part I'm now sure. There have been many many different stamps of DOA and chances are if you're a doper, you will see a stamp called DOA a few times through your runs. It's average stuff, not garbage, not fire; but has a nice nod. It dissolves nicely, leaves your cotton white and tastes more bitter than usual"

(ed. note: DOA has been reviewed here before (July 2009) The graphic of the stamp was a little different and at the time it was out of Brooklyn..however this has proven to be a pretty ubiquitous nomiker over the years so I wouldn't be surprised if several crews use different versions of it?)

UNLEASHED

"Unleashed from Brooklyn (no specific area, delivery service). From the makers of hellboy. Good rush, not-so-great legs, but overall solid stuff. Not anything to write home about but probably the best you're gonna do for Brooklyn right now. Decent amount in each bag.

 *ed note: Even NYC's grittiest sepia shadows have become simply annotated captions of a 2013 Times Square caricature artist's "portrait du desespoir": days of yonder. BY MEMORY! The last 2 decades have humored the "war on drugs" expansion to encompass any and all related ephemera within the free market-meets-lordoftheflies methodology that spurns urban economy/hustle, perhaps by exploiting its inherent cycles of decay and rebirth. While the "forces that be" fill their quotas by schlepping vanloads of sweaty, tired, private citizens who unwittingly shat a little too close to where they dined that day.. (and then shit ON themselves while waiting for a bed in the holding cell to wallow in. ;happens to the best of us, duh.;) Naturally, the advent of cellular phones, SMS messaging, winks and nods, carrier pigeons, and Scientologist sea-org interns on the block has changed its modus operandi.

"Also I need reader/your help. I've copped some weird dope lately that is cut with something STRANGE.

I don't have a photo but it comes in a red bag, no stamp. I only get it when I'm desperate as it's usually crap. Any ideas? Anyone know about this shit?"    ----Yours as always, EVE

NARCAN/Naloxone Distribution Programs SAVE LIVES!

   Every opiate user, whether hardened addict or recreational "chipper" should be educated of the risks involved with using their drug of choice, including that of overdose. Those of us in "the life" long enough will undoubtedly be touched personally by it, if not numerous times, and quite often with tragic results. 
    Over the years I have heard some pretty absurd junkie-tales regarding how to respond to an OD--from cold showers to forcefeeding milk and even sticking icecubes up the ass..*facepalm*
If you have ever had the misfortune of calling EMS for someone else you most likely witnessed at least some of the process of reviving the patient; from intubation to induction of the powerful opiate antagonist naloxone. If you, yourself made the mistake of underestimating potency and found yourself on the gurney you surely remember the feeling of waking up in a violent state of post-acute withdrawal. Shitty, eh? (Not as shitty as dead, however..)
    Recently, programs have been popping up in cities across the US and Canada that offer take-home emergency Narcan kits free to users already accessing services such as needle exchanges and methadone clinics without a prescription. These kits include either single use ampules for IM administration or in preloaded nasal spray dispensers.

"As for the hot bars..
rush 8
legs 7
count 7

Definitely better than the Gucci's ever so slightly, and the price is right and I think I should be able to cop them again sometime in the next few days when i get the money for a bun, the Hot Bars are gonna be my go to shit right now cause its either these, the Guccis, or 2 different types of blue blanks, and the hot bars are the best IMO as long as you're buying a bundle or more cause the price is most definitely reasonable on that shit, the hot bar's are pretty close in price if you're coppin a bundle to what good bags (eg. the redsox, renegades, etc.) cost before the police started raiding people and the hot bars are most definitely right, strong rush off them and they aint skimpy or anything. Grey powder. Cooks up clean, everything dissolves up, just like dope should be."

"These bags came from the same person that had the "three musketeers" that I sent in earlier last week. There was nothing around and my friend knew these were around, so I picked them up. I was pleasantly surprised!!  Love when that happens. I picked up two bundles, came back, shot 8 and got a nice rush from it.   As soon as I let the tourniquet fly it hit and put a smile on my face at the same time.

(Gucci)same exact dope as the last 3 musketeers, just came out last weekend (or at least thats when my man told me, "Now i'm gonna have Gucci's no more 3 musketeers, that stamps dead.")
The Gucci's, i'd say"
rush 7
legs 6.5?
count 6.75

yeah kinda random.
(They) are most definitely not shitty bags by any means but they're nothing special either, I remember months ago when the Renegades and the Redsox bags were around you could cop bags just as good as the Guccis for cheap as shit easy as fuck all day (or at least i could), but the Gucci's my man's pricing on em is a little fucked so thats my main gripe.

  My guy told me these are from the same people as the redsox bags that went around like a few months ago.
  Only other stamps i can find around here are these and murders and the murders aint shit, these are better. (and) Damn son, (re:previous poster) how the FUCK you do 15 at a time? i need like 4 of these to get good, maybe 5 to get me real fucked.
  Jynxie if you want you can post some of my pics of these bags??? Idk how to get at you lol (ed note: email submissions to littlesnappingturtle @ gmail.com)
  Heres the pics i've got from the last few weeks with these same bags. You can see like how full they are in my pics and i got a pic of 3 or 4 in the works, idk. lot of blue blank bags goin around york city atm and they vary in quality from pretty good (for around here) to shitty.

LETS GO (Philly/York, PA)

"Here are some bags that are obviously from the Philly / NJ area. I copped them in town here in York from a good friend of mine. At first I honestly had low hopes for these but they're OK. It's not fire, but its not bad either. It's got the typical Philly dope smell to it when you water it down, it mixes clear amber like most dope from Philly. For whatever reason, this shit burns when it enters any vein. I've got a few spots left that I consider my "main streets", and in all of them this shit burns. Once the onset happens though, the rush builds up slowly and peaks within a few seconds, from the feet to the head. It's a mellow rush; competitive to listening to the song Heroin by The Velvet Underground. In all I would buy this dope again, but only if there was nothing else around that was better and cheaper. I payed more than usual for this stuff and I'm never happy when I have to spend more than normal...until I'm nodding that is."

THREE MUSKATEERS (York, PA)

"I copped these off a friend of mine because there was nothing else around that day. I had heard of these before and I had tried the first incarnation of these of the same name, but they were nothing special. I didn't have high hopes for these and I still don't haha. The solution dissolves into a clear light yellow almost golden liquid, and it requires cooking. I am a believer in cooking all gear regardless, but for this its a must. After drawing it up, there is some what looks like salt still left in the spoon. Not much but you can definitely see it. The rush is below average. One time I made a 15-bagger-dagger in hopes that I would grab descent rush, but it was the same. The rush is the same regardless of if you shoot 5 or 15. I did get a nod going and it came with the typical nod-life of wake up, nod. Wake up, nod. Get drink, smoke cigarette, nod. The price was average and in all, I would buy these again if there wasn't  anything else around. They don't last a very long time, but about 5 hrs.

FATBOY (Philly/Lancaster, PA)

 

"Here is some stuff I copped from a friend in Lancaster PA (city). To make a long story short; I never am thrilled when I have to get stuff from Lancaster, and the primary reason is because of the quantity; it's always small. These bags were out of the ordinary though, as the count was more than what is usually seen in Lancaster. Coming in red glassine envelopes is always something out of the ordinary, as most bags are typically blue or white.
Like most gear from Lancaster, this screams Philadelphia; double sealed and smaller envelopes. It mixes into the typical clear amber.  I have a pretty fierce habit, so I made an 8-bagger-dagger and tied off to find a vein. Once one was found it was blast off time. The rush came within a few seconds of releasing my tie and it wasn't anything special. Not the exploding head feeling I love, it was more of a typical flood of dopamine to their receptors. I did start to nod a few times and with one hour I was completely asleep. These bags are more reminiscent of benzos than heroin, but I digress; they're average dope.
R: 5; 

L: 6; 

C: 5. 

Not a bad score but I like fire. I want my head to explode when I shoot 8 bags. My normal shot is between 8-10 bags and I expect to nod like crazy not fall asleep entirely. But not bad. I paid 10$ more a bundle for these than usual. In all...not bad. Above Typical Lancaster-esq dope."
