N-Isopropylbenzylamine with racemic Meth?

I've never in my research have seen a single peer reviewed or or official document that suggests N-iso in ss ever been found in merh or that anyone was selling it as a counterfeit drug. I could consider that there is an international conspiracy to never admit that meth is cut with it or it is sold as meth (it would be a federal crime under the analogs act, and treated the same as if it were meth, but state laws vary) Furthermore, the site "Drugs.data" a harm prevention site you can send your drugs to with $100 and a title that the sender would recognize. They used to be part of the site Erowid. They say that they have bought the standard twice and it has an easily differentiated gc/ms profile, and they've never encountered it. If you have any peer reviewed or legitimate government. Data that suggests it was used as an adulterant, I'd love to see it.

That's pretty strange since the evidence that n-iso is used to cut meth in different places around the world is pretty easy to find. This isespecially true in Australia were people/gtoups use it to cut the majority/completely l-meth that they sell as ICE currently in Australia.
" In 2007–2008, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) reports have shown that a compound called N‐isopropylbenzylamine (n‐(1‐methylethyl)‐benzenemethanamin, N‐ipb, Figure 1) has been used first as an adulterant or substitute for METH in seized drug samples in the United States. 13 , 14 , 15
In New Zealand, many products of ‘pure METH’ sold in the street are adulterated with at least 50% of N‐ipb. 17 Additionally, drug dealers in China have sold N‐ipb as fake ‘Ice’ METH in many recorded cases. Although N‐ipb is a border controlled substance in Australia, it is not currently known as a controlled substance in other countries."

"Over the course of the next month the origins and links between multiple consignments seized by the ABF were reviewed and found to contain border controlled substances, including eight kilograms of isopropylbenzylamine (a methamphetamine analogue) and quantities of heroin, cocaine and other drugs from various source countries"
"New Zealand’s drug checking organisations (KnowYourStuff, NZ Needle Exchange and NZ Drug Foundation) have been seeing something called n-isopropylbenzylamine (shortened to n-iso) turning up in substances that people thought were methamphetamine."

"Crime gangs import legal chemical to make cheap and deadly imitation meth
Crime gangs are deploying Breaking Bad methods and exploiting legal loopholes to mass-produce a new “imitation” meth, which is cheaper to produce but more hazardous. Australian crime gangs are importing a chemical known as “ISO” to produce a cheap and deadly imitation meth.
Criminals are using a legally imported chemical to flood Melbourne streets with a cheap, potent and dangerous new “imitation” methamphetamine"

N‐Isopropylbenzylamine (N‐ipb), a chain isomer of methamphetamine (METH) with similar physical properties, has been used as a substitute for METH in seized drug samples. However, the abuse potential of N‐ipb remains unclear. Therefore, this study ...

What is n-iso? - The Level
New Zealand’s drug checking organisations have been seeing something called n-isopropylbenzylamine lately. Here's what we know.

I honestly was convinced of the same thing for years, but drugs,data, in the US says they hardly ever saw it, like 3 times and One can say the chinese were advertising the shit out of it, but you cant say with any authority that they were selling the shit out of it. It's like using ebay to price an item. Sure they were asking $500 for it, but did they sell it for $500? Did they sell it at all. You'll be shocked when you start checking references ina lot of peer reviewed journals, the references are fake, they don't make the claim the author citing it says they do, they misquite the source. It's wide spread and an known issue. I publish something today showing a link between stevia and homosexuality and people cite it and quote it for 2 years before its rejected, but they don't put up a neon sign that says it was rejected, its in tiny print in the index of a journal 2 years later. I couldn't find any legitimate evidence it was used in abundance in the US (then again we are land-locked to Mexico, so the shit is dirt cheap. I tried to sell some for $125/ounce and people laughed because you can buy it all day for $125/ounce if you know somebody. I know a guy in Arizona selling it for $100/ounce
