Thread: Pro Hormones and the 90 day grace period

what do you want to know?

In 66 more days they will be class III anabolic steroids, illegal (a felony) to possess without an Rx

That about says it all, doesn't it?

what I am looking for is maybe a sight that indicates the 90 grace period. I attempted to sell a product on E-bay that is on the list and they canceled my listing stating that the product is illegal. I would like to show them that we have till mid January before the bill is in effect

In some states they already are illegal, so that could be the reason, either way you have 66 more days before the ban goes into effect.

maybe this is what you want: http://www.casper207.com/files/S2195Biden.pdf

Prohormone Ban Signed by President Bush
Anabolic Steroid Control Act of 2004

S. 2195, the Anabolic Steroid Control Act of 2004, was signed by President Bush on Friday, October 22.


It is amazing that only 14 years earlier, in 1990, anabolic steroids were banned. In 90 days, around January 22, 2005, selling andro, methyl-1-test, and other popular pro-hormones will be in the same legal status as other drugs, like cocaine and heroin. (Yes, we are living in the United States). It looks like besides the 18 new substances listed, in expands the act to include all prohormones and prosteroid supplements. (DHEA, estrogens and a few others were spared the act - for now). So buy all that you can now, before it goes away, like ephedra did.
This bill, which was introduced by Senators Joseph Biden (D-Del.) and Orrin Hatch (R-Utah), provided for the listing of steroid hormone precursors such as androstenedione ("andro") under the Controlled Substances Act. Such action effectively prohibits the marketing of these substances as dietary supplements by regulating them as Schedule III controlled substances. The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) has called steroid precursors "the functional equivalent of steroids."

Congressman John Sweeney, another sponsor of the bill has said “Today is a great victory for parents of athletes everywhere,” said Sweeney. “No longer will these dangerous products be marketed to our nation’s youth, many of who are unaware of their harmful side effects. Starting today, we’ve made it a little easier for parents in their continuing struggle to keep their children safe from the dangers of illicit drugs.”

The legislation adds 18 substances to the list of banned anabolic steroids. Here is the list of banned items:

Thats great info thank you

eBay doesn't care if it's legal in your state. It's illegal in CA where they're based. Plus, eBay is overly strict on many (non-bodybuilding) items that are technically legal to sell.

eBay is a pain in the ass. Period.
