Is Nexa no longer cool

Interesting reply, as I didn't suggest in any way, shape, or form, that banning you was even a consideration...

As it was well before your join date, you may not realize that I was one of the few "give the guy another chance" voices when his early lies and duplicity were made public.

I had an in-depth discussion with him via DM about it all before granting vendor status here, and while I still had reservations I decided to give him that chance since I completely understood then (and still do now) how many vendors in this space can get off to a rough start and need some time to find their groove. I am more than happy to give most vendors a wide berth to overcome early mistakes.

As time went by, it became clear to me that it was becoming one of those situations where someone was trying to do all of the right things publicly to rehabilitate their image, while still being not quite as respectable behind-the-scenes. It's unfortunate, but as an old wise man once said, "seasons change, people don't change".

If you are uncomfortable with others expressing their opinions here about various vendors - including ones with whom they may not have direct experience - then perhaps you should reconsider your participation. Other than the obvious shills, I have never banned or taken disciplinary action against anyone for supporting this or any other vendor. I value all opinions, including those I may disagree with. If you can't do the same, then maybe it's time to move on.
He's good Coach.... he'll be fine in 10 minutes. If u were ban happy you woulda got me for all the stupid things I post or when I bark at vendors when folks get stiffed without the facts or any patience....

I was referring to when you left and let worker be take over the forum for mod.
me and worker Be went back and forth about cain for 6 months when we had a problem in dec-may of this year with china vendors ripping off EVERYONE on here it seemed like.

what are the most made question on this site?
how can i buy grey pep right?
nexaph offers a great newbie way to buy with a easy site and CC payments.
So why trash one of the only guys that has had a site up that helps more people get into grey?
that is why I defend him is because we forget that not everyone on here can buy peps from china.
I could make a huge list of reason why having a package in customs flagged or even let through after inspection could turn people away.
Yes DHS keeps track of yall orders and what was in it even if it was passed through no problems.
want a new job in the gov or contract to work with them?
how about clearance to go certain places? or denied a passport or twic card?
some people dont want to risk importing anything from china that may bring a flag onto them.
while its legal now may not be legal tomorrow.

if cain makes money while risking his neck to make a profit let him
But unless yall just enjoy answering the same questions over and over
let the newbies try him out without putting fear into them because its no less risk ordering from china or even a china vendors supply USA warehouse.

Of course, there are other domestic resellers besides Nexaph, including Amino Lair for kits and maybe at least 20 group buy vendors now, including some with already tested in-stock kits and singles.

But some newbies know Nexaph and Peptide Sciences and that's about it. And it takes time to find out about other vendors and especially group buys.

I still buy Nexa technically since I recently got a vial of T60 resold by BioBombshell.

I think the difference here is that there are hundreds of places to buy peps. Novo and Lilly are the only place to get branded, and yes, their pricing is sickening.

With peps, I could get them far cheaper than I get them from Nexa, but I pay for convenience of not having to use crypto. Nexa isn't the only peptide supplier, I know I could get them a lot cheaper if money is an issue. Nexa doesn't own the peptide market, we have choices. With Novo and Lilly, this isn't at all true.

Just my ten cents, for what it's worth🙂
I'm a bit jaded in that when I first started out in this hobby, the main "gray" choices were Peptide Sciences and SAF. Both were absurdly overpriced, and offered little to no testing; but they took card payments and shipped from within the US so they were the de facto entry point for 99% of people looking for an alternative to big pharma at the time.

In a few short months, they became the "nexa" of that era; everyone had an opinion and felt compelled to share it. The main difference being that neither of those companies could be bothered with trying to engage customers publicly; they were smart enough to ignore the noise and focus on the big picture: making all the money. As time wore on, and even to this very day, because they accepted cards and shipped domestically they continued to have their supporters and loyal customers. To most people now however, neither would even be included in consideration today, even for those who have never purchased from them.

As time went on, the domestic vendor scene began to change rapidly, with countless startups sprouting up all over the place as people discovered they could buy kits from QSC, Senwayer, Tri-Trust, and the whole gang of Chinese that most here have never heard of, and turn around and sell kits or individual vials for hundreds or thousands of percent markup and enjoy almost overnight success.
That's when the differences in vendor approaches and personalities started to become something for the whole world to see. Several vendors with great prices and quality products would ultimately fail because of shitty customer service, shipping problems, always running out of inventory, and often due do problematic personalities (remember Phat Strength?) allowing themselves to be seen for the questionable type of people customers were dealing with.

Other vendors followed a different path. Arctic is my go-to example because even though they had a number of public disasters early on (mostly underfilled vials, shipping/inventory and customer service problems), they took the approach of learning from those mistakes and doing everything they could to overcome them and improve every day. Eventually they got to the point of almost universal respect, even though their prices were well above what many people who were becoming familiar with China-direct purchasing were willing to pay. Sure, they had occasional bad reviews, but they were all "feels" complaints; never did you hear someone complain about being ripped off or the owners being assholes. Eventually, other vendors like Skye, Polaris, etc. would follow the same model and many are still around today with the same near-universal admiration and respect. The owners of those types of companies were/are decent people, or at the very least able to keep any negative personality traits private and not let them interfere with how they conducted business. (I didn't include BB/Aminos Research because while they were the cat's meow for quite a while, their spectacular failure quickly erased all of the good will they built up.)

Then of course were the "less-than" vendors, those people who see the peptide business as a money factory and nothing else; only caring about their customers to the extent of convincing them to keep coming back to spend more. Astro, HVY, Xcel, Helix, Cantides, the list goes on and on. They were caught lying over and over again. They would never made good on bad product. They did all the wrong things, almost always having to do with the personalities of their proprietors.

Even with the worst vendors at their worst moments, I don't recall any of them ever rubbing their "success" in the faces of the very customers who made that success possible. Ironically, the most successful long-term vendors seem to be the ones who realize that public interactions with customers/potential customers is ill-advised and minimize or eliminate their public participation once they've become established. It's the ones who keep needing to remind the world how wonderful they are that almost always end up being the names brought up as examples of how not to do things.

Vendors will continue to come and go, and a year from now we'll be talking about an entirely different set of names. One of the core missions of this forum is to give members the information and tools to help empower informed decision-making for everyone's unique situation and circumstances, and much of that is accomplished by people sharing their experiences and opinions openly and honestly (without being paid or incentivized). I don't especially care whether someone supports a vendor or not; positive or negative feedback doesn't matter as much as its sincerity, provided the discussion is always conducted genuinely and respectfully and without attempting to invalidate or intimidate dissenting opinions.

Anyway, this should really be a separate post, maybe a "Gonk's Chronicles of Grey Market Peptide History" kind of thing at some point, so I'll leave it as food for thought for now. Always remember that this forum as a general rule remains staunchly vendor-neutral unless and until a vendor has given us reasons to set that neutrality aside, such as when their actions put the health or finances of our members in jeopardy.

I'm tired of this entire conversation, but wanted to address this one part of your reply...

Most people probably don't know this, but one of the reasons ЕWВ was a top choice for leading this circus during my absence is the fact that he and I often disagreed (and still do) about many aspects of this hobby, sources, and life in general. What we do share is RESPECT, and that's what I expect of every other member here regardless of differing opinions or experiences.
 
I still use them, but I don’t pick based on “coolness.” I’ve mixed in some old Tirz vials from pricey single vial vendors and GBs from unknown vendors in between Nexa vials and haven’t noticed a discernible difference based on FEELZ.

My preference is more based on reliability and ease, and admittedly, a lack of patience. Nexa comes reliably and fast.

ETA: Just realized I’ve been using him for a year. Time FLIES when you’re happy and skinny! 🤣

What’s up with Amino Lair’s testing? Do they only use Freedom Diagnostics (I think that’s the name). I’ve scoped them out as a potential place to shop but wasn’t sure on that aspect.

Anyone aware of any test groups for them?
 
Is it true the owner has been bragging and posting photos of his 6-figure imported sportscar as a token of gratitude to customers?
I fail to understand what that has to do with the OP's question, but I think it reveals your opinion of the proprietor.

I vaguely recall them posting tests from other labs in the past; might want to look through the archived promos section to see.

Likely just a cost and path of least resistance thing for them. I really don't have any knowledge or experience with the Freedom lab, but if you're curious I suggest reaching out to Amino Lair to ask about their lab choices.
 
There shouldn't be any confusion as to my opinion of the proprietor, especially after the coordinated shill assault on the forum earlier this year.
I’ll never understand this “shill” thing you hang on to.

God forbid a flood of people fleeing name brand and compound who found something easy, reliable, fast, that they were comfortable with, and that works just as well as the “real” stuff, saving them eons of money a year, comment and share their experiences when other newbies ask about who everyone is using. They were excited, as was everyone who found grey. That’s not “shilling.”

Sounds like you and I have the same questions. I know absolutely nothing about Freedom Diagnostics other than one comment someone on this forum made when I brought up Amino Lair a while back. Currently I'm sitting back and watching them closely, hoping that a bigger body of feedback builds up.
 
Used him thrice. No issues. His customer base increased exponentially as did his prices. Most of us believe his shit comes from china like everyones and he pays a lil more to pick his purple crimps with blue tops and gets his own special box.... They're constantly tested and I'll pay 50 or 60% more for well tested domestically shipped but not double and triple. His t30 is 325 and we're paying 95-110 now. I got an email for 15% of any reta yesterday, its RETA15 till the 19th.
I saw the sale on Reta...I am wondering if I should purchase it as it would save me like $45 but I just did my first pin of Triz. Thoughts? Should I buy it?
 
Check stairway to grey they 3rd party test with groups and pull nexa for half his compounds every batch almost.
Ok, just went through all of that to find a disorganized chat group. The vender list is sparse and made no mention of Nexaph that I could find. Call me a fan girl all you want but I STILL haven't found a cheaper vender that suits my needs.
 
I'm a dinosaur I think you need a telegram invite that's where the 3rd party testing is. I'll try to dm ya the address but I bet ur bestie @AndyPanda or @Calm Logic could help....
I think I am in the telegram group for stairway to gray but I am not 100%. Is it called STG - No oils?????

Nexaph appears to be blacklisted on StG. Even mentioning that name prompts an automod response. I'm not sure why. But if you search for "Nexaph", "SNP", etc. all you'll find are the automod responses. I'm assuming they "poof" any posts mentioning them.

Sure. Eventually you will try reta....Next time shop around and save 100 for domestically shipped or 200 international. Most everyone can afford a kit from them but the problem is building a 70 year stash. Joking but a majority of us weirdos have a 2-9 year supply of sema, tirz and reta....
