Can you elaborate on why? Sincerely wondering since I almost bought from a vendor I now know to be rather shady that has a very nice website and an easy ordering process. The well designed website itself did not strike me as a red flag, should it have?

Fwiw the sales rep you are most likely to deal with (Irene) is really great, even if her boss is a prick.

Very good point @LEPacker. I'm actually embarrassed that didn't occur to me. And while it might be a slight risk, if nothing else I think it might defeat the purpose of filtering in the first place. With that in mind, I'll stick with filtering into vials.

No, no issue. Just pull the air out. I was using a vial this time though. Just tried creating a vaccum in a cartridge and the stopper moved up to the top. Might not be able to create a vaccum, but if the stopper position is dependent on the volume it may still work. I'll try doing an air purge...

@fetefille, have you done any further tests on your Cobetter filters? You mentioned in your earlier post you thought there was a chance you did something wrong and your zero loss might be too good to be true. I've now observed zero loss with the Cobetter filters after an air purge, but I'm...

I'm more shocked at the number of people that think he is Chinese.

Okay, quick update on my 2nd practice round. Still using the .65/.22 13mm Cobetter double filters. Took my time and was super careful this round. Also tried an air purge. Filtered 1 ml of bac water. After the air purge, losses were neglectable. 2 units lost out of 100 filtered. Just to make...

I know reddit.com isn't known for having the sharpest user base but that doesn't mean educating people on the need for discretion early on is not beneficial. The suggestion isn't a perfect, but could help lessen the impact. Personally i don't see it as a problem that the site is growing. But it...

Could I make a suggestion @Stairmaster1? The tirzepatidehelp subreddit is obviously your subreddit and therefore this is obviously your decision. However it may be beneficial to add to your guide series post for external resources explaining the importance of discretion and include a few...

Most of the Chinese vendors that sell glp1s also sell several controlled substances. Also the CCP is notoriously inconsistent. It's not exactly the type of justice we get in the west. People are "disappeared" for lots of things in China. The story is all over the place. Search for "peter"...

I don't think big pharma spies are the issue. It's more that a larger customer base for the grey market gives it more attention which can lead to more regulation. Also I posted this in another thread, but there was a major manufacturer in China that was shut down by the CCP a few months ago for...

I've only recently entered the testing space, and am not the best authority on this, but generally yes Jano is considered the GOLD STANDARD from what I've read. As previously stated, peptide test seems to be learning as he goes. Multiple people have made similar observations, but that doesn't...

Part of me really wants to trust the guy implicitly since we NEED more options for testing, but in the peptide space that would be foolish. Jano is good and all but its not great that we all rely on 1 lab in the Czech rebublic for everything. For this filtering buisness I think the best thing...

Yes, I've posted links to those videos on yt and seen his numbers. However I've become a bit skeptical of some of it the more I dig. First his numbers for loss should be proportional to the surface area of the filter, but his numbers are proportional to the diameters. This makes no sense...

So I finally got around to trying out my Co better .65/.22 um filters. I filtered 3 milliliters of bacteriostatic water and lost a total of .5 milliliters. However this loss is likely on the high side due to my inexperience. Next time I’ll have to make sure that the container I filter into has a...

They are like the Spirit Airlines of the peptide world. Zero customer service and a pile of other issues, but they are so damn cheap alot of people buy from them anyway.

Thanks for chiming in. That may be a contributing factor, though I've been doing the same bike ride for my regular cardio regardless of the mots-c. Probably has something to do with the effects of sema diminishing after months at the top dose as well.

See this thread https://glp1forum.com/threads/pep-pen-aka-insulin-pen-peptide-pen-information.1081/

Has anyone noticed an increase in appetite when taking MOTS-C? It's not a side effect I've seen reported but I do seem to have more of an appetite when cycling on than off. For more context I've been at 2.5 mg sema weekly and have cycled 4 mg mots-c 4 days on 3 days off per week, 2 weeks on...

Revo has been here a while. Longer than you or I actually. He's also had some really good input on some of the discussions around here. I doubt anyone else here could do their own sterility tests. @Revo39564 congrats! My hope is to loose about the same, but in around 2 years rather than 6...

I agree with all of these. I'd suggest adding; "Assume all vendors here are scammers until you have seen significant evidence to the contrary. And understand that even then, there is still a good chance they are scammers" Brute Enforcer Emeritus, can you pin threads to the top of public square?

Not sure if you know this already, but the most prominent of these hidden buying groups is working with a re-launch of a Chinese manufacturer that was shut down by the ccp for attracting too much international attention by selling directly to customers in the west. There are also rumors that...

There is a name for this. "Exit Scamming". I read about this along with the whole Silk Road, Ross Ulbritch thing. Several of the sites competing with Silk Road were just elaborate exit scams. I wouldn't be surprised if a couple vendors here are playing the same game.

Looks like it got more than 100 new members since YESTERDAY. 2193 now. was 2088 when brentm first posted in this thread. That's a 5% increase in 1 day!

I got a HUMAPEN off aliexpress.us but I haven’t used it yet so can't comment other than it's cheap. Aliexpress.us has the exact same pens the sell on peppens as well at like half the cost, but i dont have a link handy. Peppens is just a reseller.

Also doesn't say if they're sterile.

Okay looking a bit closer on the Amazon site, in the product description pics it shows the filters as being the double. Not sure if I'd trust it though....

Huh, I didn't realize that. I think I got the single filter version, but I would have gone for the double if I had read a bit closer. But then again I think that would increase losses. And yeah, looks like Amazon only has the single. Edit: I did get the doubles! I'll report back on loss once I...

That was me, still haven't used them though. Seems like everyone is shoping for and researching filters but hardly anyone is actually doing it yet. The same filters are on Amazon in 10 packs, but the price per filter is higher. For most medical supplies, Amazon isn't my choice for this type of...

They don't kill them, but remove them from the solution. I'm sure it's not perfect, but it helps sterilze the peptide or reduce risk anyway (ie harm reduction, not complete safety). I had another thread on this with some more background in the back and forth...

Westend sells them individually, but a bit steeper (3 bucks each).

I'm actually switching to pens and plan to filter into the cartridges. So I don't have a source I've bought from that I can recommend, unfortunately. Maybe someone else will chime in. I did see someone on one of the group buy servers selling syringe filter kits (1 filter, 1 lure lock and 1...

Here is my take on this. As of a few days ago, a number of tests across multiple vendors went public that showed multiple sterility fails for both bacteria and mold. This includes the 2 most popular vendors on this forum (Amo and QSC). There seems to be a very good chance that less than sterile...

So it looks like peptidetest is now selling the exact filters shown in the videos linked above for $1.60 each. Some cheap BAC water too. https://www.peptidetest.com/lab-supplies For what it's worth I already bought 13mm pes filters from Cobetter. Losses will be higher than 4mm, but i couldnt...

Damn, advertising your promo in a thread complaining about your company. QSC has an interesting business strategy. C'est la vie.

I found this post from our fearless leader about Shanghai NEXA PHARMA CO./SPC/SNP/NEXAPH. I'm not sure how i missed it earlier other than this company has 5+ names making them hard to research (might be by design, see cantydes/cantides/canvibes, etc). I think I'm going to take a pass on this...

My thought is that if they are doing anything dishonest I would not trust the COAs. They could be ordering from multiple overseas vendors and only testing from one. Not saying they are doing thus necessarily, but with new vendors, I think we need to vet them thoroughly and hold them to a high...

Do you have any further background on this? I saw a similar comment on peppys, but it was quite terse. Alot of people seem to be starting to use this vendor, so if you have background about anything dishonest about what they are doing I think people should know. Also, I posted this in another...

Yes, for sure. I'd still recommend filters to the people here who bought from them. But I'm getting the impression from what I've read that this is a new company that is trying to improve.The picture looked a bit bleaker to me when the only public test I could find indicated major problems...

Interesting, but I'm not sure it's all accurate. For example it says metformin is available otc, I don't think that is correct. ChatGPT doesn't always get the facts right.

Thanks for pointing that out, I see it now. It's just so damn hard to navigate peppys and it doesn't help that this company has like 5 name variations.

Just an FYI to those researching Nexaph/SPC. In my further research of this company I found that the only public test they have from the peptide test server showed the sample failed sterility. Anyone who bought products from them may want to consider using syringe filters.

Haven't ordered this myself, but it looks like ASC has tablets. https://glp1forum.com/threads/price-list-asc.645/#post-11235

As of right now, I’ve taken 3, with 1 more in the freezer, and another 2-3 I'm thinking about... ...what have I become?

I'm curious about nexaph as well. Website looks good and they have testing and competitive prices. And they have a good promo right now. I saw 1 post about them on peppys saying they are a "fake" company with no further context. Not sure what to make of that. It would be great if anyone else...

There was a thread where I was talking about my cagri experiences along with a few other folks but it's gone. Not sure what happened to it. Anyway, I stacked for 9 weeks. Started at .25, then .25 up per week until with minimal effects until I hit 1mg. That dose hit me hard, and I had the worst...

Just wanted to share my experience with MOTS-C: First took this a couple of months back, just a 10 mg vial from Skye. I broke that into 3 doses. No injection site reaction, but I did notice the energy boost many report. After that I wanted to try a more thorough cycling of the peptide to get...

It actually might help in a way. These types of comments help trim down QSCs customer base to people willing to put up with this company's many many flaws, which in turn, leads to fewer customer service complaints (even when valid as in this case). People that buy from QSC know they need to be...
