Canadian Domestic: Natty King

I hope it doesn't need to be said, but I am not that dumpster fire of a source. I glossed over the thread and what an absolute shitshow.
You lost me at Kia. Compare your operation to something a little better than that.

I second this, theres a big difference between humility and self-deprication. And that difference is a dealbreaker when trying to foster consumer confidence. Probably a poor move with the whole Kia thing.
Hey, those new Kias like the stinger and Telluride are absolutely killing the market. The days of Hyundai excels and Kia Avellas are long gone, and the Japs are not immune to fuckups either. Honda Odyssey trannies and R18s come to mind.

I'll relabel as a Toyota if Kia is still looked down upon lol
i'm not sure those are mutually exclusive
Rest assured I am both a clown and a joke according to my ex. Jokes on her because she has to live with the fact she got creampied by one. No amount of name calling will unsuck my yum-yum stick
Seems even Canuck labs can be so creative with names. Natty King sounds pretty funny name for a lab lol.
Hey, gotta have fun and enjoy life sometimes, right?

It was a running gag amongst friends who were all on gear. We'd joke how we are not just natty, but natty kings. It stuck and has a nice ring to it, so I rolled with it
I could clean out your stock in one order. You will take a minimum of 3 weeks to get the product in your hands, then produce it, and then send it to me? By the time that is done, I will have put in a few large orders elsewhere. Are you catering to noobies that want one or two items?
At the time of this writing, yes, with a 200< vial inventory, I am aware high rollers can easily sweep me off my feet, and I will be scrambling to restock. With time and continued interest and reinvestment, I would like to hold a deeper and more extensive inventory. I suppose you could say my niche is small to intermediate AAS users who want an easy to deal with source for custom blends and brews.
You seem like a decent guy.
Here is the reality. You probably think there is thousands of customers just waiting for a lab. I doubt it. I think you will have a lot less interest than you hope for. Not may Canadian labs make it here…well really only the big dogs. It’s a tough market to crack. Worst part is you are doing it only on price. You are trying to target people with a few cheap items. Again it doesn’t make sense though. Im not gonna put in a Syn, Pareto, Citadel, or Genetec order and then leave out test and Deca and try to save 10 bucks a vial with you. I will get it all in one stop. I support labs that carry everything I need.

Don’t get me wrong there are always opportunities for crumbs. That being said you are gonna get bottom feeder clients that the real labs don’t even want. But hey if you are happy selling 2 item orders to guys that want it even cheaper than listed and will hound you that a vial was 0.5 cc short then go for it…but that’s what you are gonna get.

As far as knowing guys with stashes bigger than your stock pick …lol. Man I wouldn’t even bother ordering less than 10 items at a time. I don’t know what I have on hand but probably over 100 items. Again there are degenerate bums who will want 1 test vial but those people are losers.

Best of luck to you since you don’t seem to be a bad guy but I think you will have a tough road ahead where you will realize it’s not worth your time much less the risk of being exposed on the internet.
You have a fantastic knack of hitting the nail right on the head, @3ml . There is not a single point you bring up I can pull a Justin Trudeau to and "uhhh" and "err" or finesse my way out of because it is the reality, of which I am very well aware of. 90% of businesses fail within the first 5 years, and anyone who is remotely honest with themselves are aware and accept that reality. It may ultimately prove to not be worth my time, and in that case I will humbly hang up my hat and move on with life. I don't plan on making a long term career out of this, my retirement isn't banking on it. I have other projects on the backburner, and want to monetize something I am passionate about. With all that being said, I chose to embark in this game because I genuinely believe I have what it takes to be successful as far as small timers go. Know your market and advertise accordingly.

You have given me more to mull over in my head, and I say this with sincere sincerity, it's always a pleasure to hear from you. Thank you.

Thanks
I will give you this,
You are handling responses better than most and have luckily avoided a lot of the roasting guys get on meso.

Anyone that makes fun of Trudeau is alright in my eyes.

It’s possible if you get some traction and are smart with money you can grow this but you got a long road ahead of you.

Please don’t cut corners, be honest and don’t give anyone infections.
Be careful, you are now on the internet. As much as people say cops don’t care about gear there is always a bust or two you hear about every year. You are in a different league now, manufacturing, intent to distribute, proceeds of crime etc etc can fuck your life up even if you don’t get locked up.

I feel that most guys won’t use you but you may get some of the rejects and degenerates. It isn’t gonna be fun.

Giver a shot man I’m interested to see where this goes.

You ain't got no taste.
Terrible. Just terrible.

Maybe, maybe not, but i can tell when a source is serious about what they do.

At best his customer base is going to consist of noobs that aren't resourceful enough to hunt down the email address of a rep from one of the big name labs.

Sounds excellent, doesn't it? Filling one and two vial orders for guy's that need their hands held until their package lands.

i guess when you set the bar as low as humanly possible, broing it up on the forums and posting pics of chicks with dicks isn't out of the ordinary.

Lol basically what I was saying in my post above.
I like your version better…for some reason I was nice.
 
Posts Jano tests and blanks out literally every single detail including the most important part....the date it was tested. Pretty much makes them absolutely useless.

Pro-tip: Maybe make a business email before you send off your samples for testing.

So you know how meso works but basically came with none of the things you know Meso wants to see? Your "stock photo" is like 20 vials, unless I missed it I didn't see a lab setup etc.

You have only a few items, admit you are cash strapped yet you want to try and sell on a place that can clear that type of person out in a few days. Then what happens? You shut down? Keep taking orders while you cross your fingies that the raws come in quickly enough to brew more?

Back to the drawing board.

Meso is not the place for a "operation" of your size imo.

Thank you, I hear you loud and clear

It was clever in the intro, but it's getting stale, fast. Are you here to sell gear or bro it up with off topic silliness?

I do take this opportunity seriously, however, I do not see the need to be dry and defensive at any given chance or criticism/hazing thrown my way. I like to have fun, and at the very least if this doesn't pan out, I've proved entertaining. I'll take it as constructive criticism and be a little more professional.
You have a really professional attitude Nattyking, I will give you respect for that!
Thank you for the kind words!

I hear you, and appreciate what you have to say.
As I mentioned prior, I did not think 10 steps ahead getting my raws tested, and am receiving criticism accordingly. I have a dedicated business address and will be in touch with Jano shortly to get further testing done - with no information redacted.

There's more than 20 vials, however it is true that I do not have thousands of vials on hand for the time being. I chose to omit lab pics for OPSEC.

In the event a bulk order wipes my inventory out, I have a good relationship with a reliable source. Of the countless parcels I've ordered, not one has been seized. As for the wait, It's up to Meso to decide if such a 21 day waiting time for OOS items is acceptable.

You might be entirely right, meso may not be the place for a small operation. The Canadian market is small, and with numerous quality labs, it might be a fruitless endeavor. I will give it my best shot, but I know when to call it quits as well.
 
Appreciate your clear response. You just gotta keep pushing forward and doing the right thing here.

Also, I’m hearing the US market is wide open if you want to be swimming in cash lol.
 
Thank you, I hear you loud and clear

Proper up to date or semi recent testing is not 10 steps ahead it's really just common sense as you seem to be familiar with Meso, I'm sure you have another account here before you made this one.
 
A few OPSEC tips, if I may:

1) VPNs are for privacy, not anonymity. Ideally you want both privacy and anonymity.

2) I would hesitate to trust Protonmail. Recently, Protonmail was compelled to hand over the IP address (and other information) of a French activist, who was identified and arrested as a result.

Prior to this, Protonmail used to describe themselves as "anonymous" -- they had to change their wording on their web pages after this.

Protonmail has also repeatedly said that they cannot decrypt users' email. Hushmail used to make the very same claims, until they were forced to hand over to the DEA in excess of 100,000 decrypted emails as part of Operation Raw Deal, a series of steroid busts starting in September 2007.

At an absolute minimum, I would publish a different PGP key than the one you are using on Protonmail, i.e. one for which Protonmail does NOT have the private half:

pub rsa4096/0x53BBA67EE24F66FF 2021-08-27 [SC]
C38545236236894CB89BB4C153BBA67EE24F66FF
uid [ unknown] nattykingrep@protonmail.com <nattykingrep@protonmail.com>
