Okay if it was a person's bussiness to be making and distributing illict or non illicit chemicals then the choice if the popularity, distribution channels, ect existed would be to sell them via a route with the least legal resistance. If in this scenario you were talking about millions of tablets you would not be concearned with the "catching on" or them "figuring it out." In this case you would already have lawyers and you would confer with them the best way to go about walking the legal line. Here is the answer.
Okay research chemicals are NOT called research chems becvause they are for research use or anything like that. They are called research chemicals beacuase of a loop whole in the fedral analouge act which states that said analogs of illeagle chemicals which are solely for research purposes and not human consumption (ie JF's disclamer) will still be unregulated/controlled chemicals. The only way that they become illeagle are when they are sold for human consumption, or sold as something they aren't. Most states have a law which allows for equal punishment for selling a fake drug as something else. So in powder form it is not illeagel. Now if you could show conspiracy to distribute for human consumption, then there would be your first charge. Look into what might be a good cover, file for a CORPORATION, and use it to purchase and OWN the compounds. It is difficult to go after a cor[poration in court for owning a legal compound, and difficult to show illeagle intent just by ownership, from there carry on with it as if it were a 100% illict drug. Okay so now you get busted with 500,000 tablets of TFMPP, okay so who is coming after you, THE FDAl, as long as that same good lawyer that you talked to before is your lawyer on court then you have to face a charge which is a GROSS MISDOMEANOR with a max PRISON scentence of 3 years.
Okay so I said before your bussiness is already manufacture and sale of illict chemicals, all the infrastructure is already in place, ect. So now you have a choice between a 10 year minimum scentence for your 500,000 tablets of MDMA, with 30 years likely and a lareg $1,000,000 fine. Or your are caught with your 500,000 TFMPP tablets and get MAX 3 years abd MAX a $250,000 fine. I'll go down for three years to sell a million tablets of TFMMP, but I don't know about 30. For a profit margin with of $60,000 per Kg of TFMPP, I would rather manufacture and have the smaller risk, for the profit, a million ablets of TFMPP costs at bulk about $9,000, and sells for about $600,000. Now if you already have distribution chanels that are gaurenteed, you tell me what makes more sense, synthing out 10Kg of MDMA, or just spendng $9,000, when either make you about $600,000 per run. I think the answere is obvious. Additionally if you have had to make large productions of illict chemicals before then you would know it is alot nicer to pay someone else to do it.
I would gladly pay for a state of the art lab and for a chemist to make good pay, but at $9,000 cost to a $600,000 profit you can see why this would be a primary concearn.

So you need a precursor to a pecursor, just to make a precursor thats what the people told me . . .
