How can people sell mushroom spore prints on ebay?

Question

Hey, I'm an ebay freak, I buy lots of stuff and enjoy checking out all the wierd auctions. I saw people selling spore prints for psilicibe or whatever it's called the illegal kind of mushrooms.

I looked into it it's legal to have spores but illegal to grow them. I looked it up and you have to grow mushrooms to make a spore print. How can these people sell these on ebay. Arent' they esssentially telling everyone they are growing mushrooms and breaking the lawa?

Answer 1

The spores don't have any of the drug. The drug is what is illegal. You can get spore prints from mushrooms grown legally in other countries.

Answer 2

It is amazing how they come by them, isn't it.  Technically what they are doing is illegal, but unfortunately most people that would be in charge of monitoring things like that don't have a background in science to know whats what.  

All legalities aside, the spores have no drug-like properties.  As for those that would buy them, well, they are wasting their money -- especially if they think they have found a way to get the 'goooooooood stuff'!
