New trend? Domestic reseller offers mix and match kits.

[Retazempic]

The following is from an email I received from a domestic vendor

(FYI, I’m omitting the vendor name, as well as anything relating to price, bc my point is not to shill. Suffice it to say that grey is still cheaper.)


“The "Build Your Own" Era is Here.

We just released the single most requested feature in [Vendor name] history.

Effective immediately, you can now build your own Custom 10-Vial Kits.

Mix and match any compounds you want. As long as you hit 10 vials, you unlock a permanent feature: An automatic [X]% Discount.”

I assume this is just a gray market reseller

My assumption is that all the peptide websites in the US are resellers of grey market products manufactured in CN.

Unless it comes from a compounding pharmacy. Which I am assuming it's not. I wouldn't have asked if it weren't for me learning earlier today that I know some people buying tirz from friends that work at a compounding pharmacy. So now I am curious if it goes deeper than that 😂

China or bust

Agreed!

At that point you're trusting them not just to keep the bulk kits they're buying straight, but also not screw up the vial labeling process, leading to you getting the wrong stuff in one of the vials. That's a lot of trust!

Skye was doing that at least a year ago. One other I can think of also did that, I think it was Tydes. You could build a whole or half kit.

People were buying lyophilized tirz from your compounding pharmacy friends? Or did you mean the compounded vials or maybe the raw?

I did notice this trend. I think the Domestic Resellers (All of whom I assume are buying from the same resources we are in China) are trying to distinguish themselves. I have checked out probably a dozen or so and basically find them all...

1) Have a great website, which of course is easy these days because of vibe coding.

2) Have the same products, just with their own labels.

3) Have roughly the same prices, marking stuff up about 10x what we get on the grey market.
It is a pretty simple business I think, requiring nothing more than some start-up capital.

I mean, a body builder who I have followed on YouTueb set up his own company which I have bought from, and without judgement, it isn't his core competency yet he did a good job (until getting kicked off YouTube).

So I think the resellers will soon be facing downward price pressure.

People I know have friends that work in a compounding pharmacy that buy tirz, reconstituted in a syringe, from them.

Thank you for the details 🙂

Yep, all the same. Same in my world: Another week, another GB group trying to get enough orders to reach MOQ, especially during the holidays when money is tighter. The bigger/older GBs have in-stock kits and lead the pack.
