My take (TLDR, soap box por el dia or some people don't care how much their plastic surgery costs, some people get it done in Costa Rica)
Lowest Risk $$$- Branded product at pharmacy
Moderate Risk $$- Paying more for perceived quality, faster shipping, ease of making payment
Using telehealth
High Risk $- Ordering from any foreign source. The risk escalates when conflated with unknown vendors, potentially fake COA's, non traditional payment methods, language barriers, odd communication channels (Whatsapp, Discord)
Everything is a lie. (I can't understand why people criticize sellers here for lying about their identity, gender, location... Would you provide a road map to Eli Lilly, or in China the NMPA or thugs like the Bamboo Union or Sam Gor?)
I put Amopure in the lower rung of moderate leaning towards high because of the following:
*Website
*Ease of ordering/payment
*Plenty of independent testing
*Group testing (many recipients, many tests)
*Speed of shipping (even when shipped from China)
*Alibaba
*Efficacy (personal experience)
*Comfort in numbers (lots of domestic customers)
Where it falls into high:
*No one can tell me 100% what I'm injecting
*What's the filler? Why does it appear different?
*If not mannitol what is it?
*The sting (mine does a bit, efficacy tops comfort)
*Recently the price, in July very competitive, Oct not so much
*No fear of retribution (Lilly/Novo)
Personally (on Medicare) at 5mg (for life) if I lose my script I'm paying $52.85/mg for branded Mounjaro... We don't get to use a coupon or discount etc. I'm filling my script (use it or lose it) and filling my freezer! It's the one thing zombies won't want after the apocalypse
