Making sure one of the group is 18 is the best practical advice if you are hell bent on going. You'll find people to buy for you I would have thought but prepare to be robbed/ripped off. The person buying is taking a risk themselves remember and risk goes both ways.

Waiting until you are all 18 will make the experience a lot more fun. 1/2 the enjoyment of Amsterdam is being to openly buy and smoke MJ in a major European city (IMHO).

Even if you manage to get someone to buy you still need a place to roll/smoke/chill out etc. That part needs sorting out too.


How much did you produce?

Keep this in mind: Adults buying dope for minors are committing a crime, under Dutch Law, so if you ask someone to buy for you, you actually expose him/her to prosecution....

Now people know why the Dutch government want to bring in a weed pass,can't really believe that you are encouraging people to put coffeeshop licenses at risk.

Just imagine a 17yr old getting caught and saying that Boner encouraged me to go to Amsterdam as eventually someone would would buy me dope,great reflection on the forum. :roll:

It isn't putting any license at risk, if I buy the weed then the responsibilty falls on me NOT the coffeesop.

Why don't you actually quote everything that I typed,you are encouraging a minor to go to Amsterdam and get an older person to buy cannabis for him,that is dodgey in itself,but if I can remember correctly that if a coffeeshop sells a product then they are responsible for the actions and consequences of their actions?but still I can only imagine certain politicans and media outlets quoting yourself in encouraging minors to go to Amsterdam to try and flout the loose laws,you are certainly a star,note how I respond without being insuting.

I did quote what you wrote but in the time it took me to reply you had edited it, I couldn't be arsed going back and requoting you, my edit was in response to your idiocy (that you added).

The coffeeshop has to make sure that anyone entering the shop, buying weed in there and sitting smoking it in there has to be over 18, what said person does with the weed afterwards is down to the individual and not the coffeeshop, do you think the coffeeshop should ask everyone what they intend to do with the purchaces, my answer would simply be "smoke it".

Oh Boner. I suggest a quick review of the Dutch legal code and you will learn that establishments such as bars can be help responsible for what a patron does with the product purchased. If you server an obviously inebriated patron, you can be sued if they drive a car and kill someone. Its not inconceivable that this law could be applied to a coffeeshop, albeit unlikely. Regardless, such a flippant that someone should go for it....its a bit odd for a lover of Amsterdam.

Hey kid,
All you need to do is approach someone just before they go in and say, HEY MR./MS., PUFF, PUFF, PASS please?

Why is this thread still active?

Seems like no one here has had a bogus I.D. or tried to buy something illicit.
Ironic it would seem (to me), to find so many fine law-abiding citizens in this forum.
In most but not all countries, perhaps almost everyone in this forum would be an outlaw???
Can't post when I'm high, can't post when I'm not. This happens when I do.

It's against the law to serve alcohol to somebody who's already 'drunk', no doubt the law define what 'drunk' actually is. But, if somebody leaves your bar a drives over a few people on the way home, the bar can only be done with serving him/her the drink, not the manslaughter of the people that got driven over. Plus, you'd be a goodin to make that stick in court. Coffeeshops have to makesure their customers are over 18, whatever happens after they leave the premises is down to that individual, not the shop.

Boner, should've went for the "Fuk off and stop asking stupid questions" frustration route. :wink: :lol:

I had a fake ID when I was 18 and the drinking age had just turned from 18 to 21. What did that make me? Cool, smart, sophisticated, or none of the above?
I didn't have to ask someone over the age, that's why I had a fake ID. In the context of this thread, he's wants someone to buy for him. Huge difference... although certain penalties could be the same, as already mentioned in this thread (owner looses his ass, meaning everything). I sure the fuck ain't gonna be the one stupid enough to jeopardize my freedom, a business, and the livelihood of the staff of the C/S (if license is revoked).

Isn't it ironic, don't ya think? :o :lol:
Are we hypocrites, or are we responsible adults making a rational decision by not supporting or contributing to the delinquency of a minor?
When I was a minor, I didn't always make rational decisions - I used a fake ID, nothing rational about that, well I suppose it depends on the level of maturity. Mine was somewhat lacking obviously. :oops: :lol:

Some seem to have lost their way, backbiting and all that. Move on...
