Just purchased a pack yesterday.

@denti Dirt Cheap Labs appears to be closed according to a message on their site.

Yeah, I just hit six months and have lost 20.5% on RUO and have not gone above 4.5mg.

Here is a good substack article on cartalax. The dosing mentioned is smaller than 4mg, so I would be interested to read any other info on dosing protocols.

I have not tried it myself, but do have some on order from a GB to also see if it can help with knee and hip issue. A couple of people in the GB swear by it, which prompted me to give it a shot.

Oh I agree. It also looks like Veritas is providing a single COA for all mg options for a given pep, so you don't even know if you're getting 30mg or 10mg when ordering.

Has anyone heard of Constitution Laboratories? A friend was looking to purchase from a supplier called Veritas Labs, who look to be using Constitution Laboratories for their testing. I have heard of neither.

I think I read somewhere recently that Janoshik specifically lists TB4 as "TB-500 (TB4)" on their COA's and TB-500 as "TB-500 (889 Da)"

Wow, this is a trip down memory lane. I’ve only been researching for six months, and feel like I have learned so much, especially from forums like this. I was introduced to peps by my ex who gave me a vial of Reta from Peptide Sciences, so they were my first. I will say that it was definitely effective as I lost 10lbs in the first month.

Unfortunately (or fortunately as they were pretty pricey) I had to find another vendor after they decided to shut down and came across Ascension Peptides where I purchased my second single vial of Reta as well as Wolverine. I can’t recall how I came across Ascension initially, but the pricing was not bad at the time and the product worked fine. I was just reviewing their current pricing though, and I must have had a new customer discount on my first purchase as the same 30mg vial is now more than double what I paid.

While I was still researching my single vial from Ascension, I started looking into other peps and vendors that sold kits so that the price/mg was cheaper. I found Crush at that time and picked up a kit of Reta and KPV. Crush did not have Wolverine at the time, so I picked some up from Biotech Compounds.

I think this is when I got sucked into the “drop marketing” at Crush and stocked up on more Reta. Rory at Crush was also highlighting a great discount on Reta from Orbitrex Peptides, so I picked up some more. This is what I have been using most recently and it is working well.

This was my first three months. At some point during that time, I kept hearing about group buys and grey and learned about STG, GLP-1 Forum, Peptide Critic, Telegram etc. I lurked in a bunch of TG channels for a while and eventually found Aavant. I’ve since done a couple of buys with them. The frenzy of the “drop” and issues with the bot were frustrating, but the way that they organize the group testing is great, and they accepted PayPal (I had not yet ventured into using crypto). I was using Aavant to stock up on more Reta, BPC and TB4, none of which I’ve researched with yet.

At about the time I found Aavant, I also got connected to a couple of group buys (D&U and Drop Zone), specifically looking for Cartalax and more KPV. I made a purchase with both and am still waiting on delivery. These both accepted PayPal as well, but with a 5% fee.

My most recent purchase was from Peptegrity and was my first crypto purchase. As a couple others have stated, we'll see if that comes through.

I think I would have definitely tried Nexaph if I had found them earlier, and likely will try them at some point given all of the positive feedback here.

I got my bloodwork done through Superpower, and am actually due for another panel. My app is a spreadsheet…but I may look at upgrading that at some point as well.

...and then there is this https://www.cnbc.com/2026/08/12/lilly-lawsuits-obesity-drug-retatrutide.html

@mattaylor If you're referring to the presale event on Crush, if you register on their site, you should get an email. That is how I found out about it.

@mattaylor If you register on their site, you should get an email.

I'm still seeing 59 kits of 20mg left.

...and the 100 kits of R30 is sold out.

@Stevepep thanks, i'll have to check it out. I'm in quite a few telegram groups and have seen a few reports of high endotoxin results (a couple were the same mentioned in this forum), but don't recall anything reta specific. Being part of so many groups I really can't read everything though so I'll go digging for details.

@Stevepep I have not heard of Reta issues as of late...where have you seen this? I have a couple of kits from Crush and Orbitrex from earlier in the year.

@Stevepep It is a great deal, though I'm going to hold off as I still have two unopened kits from Crush from previous sales as well as a few others. I hope it is the competition that is driving prices down as that only good news for researchers. I've also seen more activity around Elora and wonder if will have an impact on Reta prices as everyone wants the latest thing.

For all of the Crush fans...I got an email earlier today about another presale event happening at Crush starting Friday Aug 7 at 5pm Mountain through Sunday at 11:59pm...or until they sell out. 30mg Reta for $1/mg.

Yes, that's what I've been reading. Still, banning download on iOS and not Android for content that is easily removed by them?
