I think we can sum everything up like this: - Trying to shut down something that people generally do not view as a bad thing has NEVER worked, WILL never work, and will ALWAYS be worked around. - The ONLY way to reduce black markets of generally socially acceptable things is to make ease of...

It's a good thing that the goal of manufacturing/shipping this stuff is to keep it in a liquid form in a vacuum vial then. I've used XRF's, SEM's, and a few other chemical detection equipment, you have a better chance of catching "weed adjacent" on a package rather than the stuff we are using...

In all reality, what I would expect to happen is what has already been happening: - Prices maintain or raise very slightly due to constraints listed above. - Shipping from US warehouses becomes the predominant form of purchasing (as the seizure loss is already accounted for in the cost)...

The main reason this price increase would happen would be built in price conditioning with the expectation that half of all shipments are seized. I sincerely doubt that any customs enforcement is anywhere near that effective. MAYBE 20%, as randomized testing is not that effective if you don't...

Organizational testing will continue to be done, as it's not illegal at all. What you are describing is temporary in nature. And to really drive the point home of cost, let's say tirz doubles in price to about $1 per mg, and you have to test each kit. For a 300mg kit (30mg X 10), you have 270...

The other point here is, patent exclusivity expires, but the efficacy of these treatments doesn't get worse over time, so the "black market" for most of these GLP-1's only has to exist for like another 5 years, as at that point generics can be trucked in from other countries, and the big pharma...

Let's take a step back here, how easy is it to procure drugs in many countries? Not like the ones we get, I'm talking DRUGS (cocaine/weed/prescription/fentanyl). There has and ALWAYS will be an underground of traffickers and systems for people willing to put forth the effort, as there is...

I appreciate that, I think many people just assume that statistics and probabilities are some kind of nebulous concept that rarely provoke a direct answer, but if you take those concepts and apply real life numbers, the math can give you an EXACT yes/no answer. There is still some...

I didn't care about your beliefs in things, and I'm going to assume you are misinformed. If you disagree with the source below, then you are directly misleading, which I hold to the same level as trying to do harm unto others: CDC - Do Masks Prevent Respiratory Viruses Vitamin C can provide an...

Woah I bet you really wow the kids at parties. I’m a statistics and science guy who has worked in semiconductor production and bio-pharma production, what have you done? Let’s break what you said down and what you are implying by linking this study: - Contamination implies “you are going to...

I used Peptide Test to test both of my sets, but the second time was not of my choosing. I haven't been in the community for like a month, but there was some sus happening a little earlier in the year with PepTest's numbers on Tirz. Not sure if that is cleared up or not yet. Regardless, if...

Filtering is essentially an insurance policy, is it most likely wasted money? Probably, is it possible that it can save your ass from potentially getting sick? Sure. What are the odds it saves you, probably below 1%. My favorite concepts in math are cost/benefit analysis of insurance design...

If you are buying 1 kit at a time (I know that many people can't afford more than one at a time), then you REALLY should be looking at either getting from a high quality source that has peer tests already done/in process because if you can only afford one kit, you most likely can't afford...

hmmm, person who resurrects an over 2 week old thread to attack what I said as their first message after joining a day ago... the jilted lover returneth...

I REALLY hate to be this guy, but does anyone else read this and think "English might not be this person's first language" and "this person is REALLY talking up a no-name vendor?". Seems these things might not be a coincidence. Is this the vendor impersonating a customer? Honestly with this...
