This is very sad new for me. Basically every phenethylamine and cathinone (which are mostly beta-keto-phenethylamines) are being banned in Holland, home to the most incredible vendor I’ve even known. I’ll reproduce part of his email at the end but this fucks me off so much, the non psychedelic substituted phenethylamines can be hugely medicinal and now self medicating populous have to turn to black market variable shite. Lysergamides and tryptamines are untouched but that doesn’t help me at all.
“….but have some important information to convey now. Firstly, the draft legislation for the Dutch NPS ban has been released. You can find it here: https://www.internetconsultatie.nl/opiumwet_nps
As expected, the legislation largely follows that of the German NpSG. Included in the Dutch ban are phenethylamines (including cathinones), cannabinoids and fentanyl analogues. As it stands, this legislation really is quite comprehensive and basically means that all stimulant compounds will be controlled when the law comes into force. We will have to adapt our product list and remove offending items before the law comes into force. Luckily, our main products (tryptamines and lysergamides) remain unaffected so it is unlikely that we will close business entirely. Unfortunately, the published legislation and appended documents do not give any time frames as to when the ban may come into force. We will keep customers posted as we obtain more information on this topic.”
