SA prices skyrocket?!

I've bought items from vendors in the index below Nexaph prices. If you stock up when sales hit.
@Mydogdaryl423 WIth Nexaph, for me it's the level of testing and using a proven, trustworthy lab. So you can definitely shop around, but is that vendor using a crap lab, do they third party test, do they control batches by manufacturing themselves so you know all that testing relates to an actual batch with batch numbers, caps and crimps that match the COA? Nexaph is the best when it comes to a low risk purchase; no one else does what they do. I shop around as well but it has to be a trustworthy lab and at the very least, multiple assays, with batch numbers and photos that match the cap and crimp. If not, then I have to test it myself and add $200 or more onto that savings.

I have a higher risk tolerance. I was using much sketchier suppliers before I found this place. I am fine with the suppliers I bought from and who they tested with.

@quicksilver80 been doing this and theres no coming back for me
@Mr-Smurf ive never bought from a domestic vendor. The price difference made me feel like a fool. I can get a kit for what normies are paying for a vial. As long as you third party test. No issues.

@Mydogdaryl423 depends on your experience first bad one will change you. Trust me I learned that the hard way.

@quicksilver80 I play grey and test too. I have renewed worries if my one tested vial in a kit or several kits is an outlier though with what’s going on in China.

I agree with that. If my experience changes then I would make an adjustment from what and where I am comfortable.

@Stevepep when i learned its all made by the same people and your "bad order" is just a numbers game. It really simplifies the whole thing. The only reason bigger companies are arguably safer was they had one of maybe 6 manufacturers making them HUGE batches. And when that batch clears testing they can hold onto quality for longer. If the manufacturer has a string of bad runs its temporary. To some that can ruin a side hustle. To others thats just a Tuesday.

@quicksilver80 Mostly correct except for Nexaph. The raw materials have a ton more testing than is done on the vials. When you start with Raws and then complete the manufacturing process you have complete batch control from raws to finished product. The testing is also on another level; everything in the sample is identified. Thats why they are fine with paying for all the third party testing because they know what is in every vial. The other vendors do not. Its really on another level and guess what I still play in grey.
Here is a good write up https://krysia0430.substack.com/p/before-the-vial-the-api-question?img=https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fe2ef0358-dd0f-442b-8cc1-8a6be691fb8e_1320x1338.jpeg&open=false

@Reactive3078 that price is for 10 vials, not just one
@atlas01 They're still no longer in the running for 3P pricing. Crush regularly beat their pricing without having to buy 10 vials and their testing is more thorough. We will see how the new ownership affects Crush Research's prices, but I bounce back and forth between purchasing from them and Nexaph.
