Your SSA Experience…

So, pay more for the same issues?

Nono, sorry, I thought if I go with a more expensive supplier, then issues wouldn't be present.

Oh, I understand your thinking. Everyone is just reselling. You can buy a "tested" kit with batch numbers and all but how do you know that particular kit isn't filled with several different runs. You can send a vial off for testing but that literally just tests that one bottle. Just figure out what you personally are comfortable with. Paying more is only a guarantee that you will be out money you could have thrown into possibly a few more kits.

I see, that makes plenty of sense. I found this group after I paid like 800 for a 10mg kit from a domestic vendor. I'm so upset that it was basically 10x the price, and the risks you noted are basically still there.

On another note, I just joined the STG telegram. I see that group testing is the norm there, is that what's typically recommended here? I was under the impression that group testing means we can test way more vials, but it seems like they only test 1-2 vials anyways, so might as well just test myself? Or not even test at all and just wait for the results to be public?

It's really a personal decision, based on your level of risk aversion. Personally, I think the risk is worth the savings. Others are much more cautious.
