1 kilo of coke or testosterone propionate occupy the same space in a container/freight/smuggling compartment.
What's more profitable for the same risk?
That's what
@Ghoul is trying to explain.
When you compete for smuggling space, you are not going to choose to smuggle the least profitable contraband for the same risk (1 kilo of testosterone is max sentencing guidelines in the US if not mistaken)
My point was and still is, we have likely reached the peak of inexpensive, easily acquired gear.
It was never "It won't be available for any price."
The idea that, using TRT as an example, having 3 vials of Test Cyp 250 in the cabinet, it might be a good idea not to wait, but buy 2 or 3 kits, for around $200, and be set for the next 5+ years regardless of what happens. was some kind of "panic buying" that would be regretted later makes no sense,
Being reliant on a prescription that can be yanked at any moment, or paying $160 a vial, or $4800 for what could've been had "in the good old days" for $200 are both abhorrent, when that situation. could've been avoided by a little "stocking up". .
What's the downside? "Artificially driving the price up"? Give me a break. There are too many vendors eager to undercut each other for this to happen, and demand for AAS has a limit. Very few people are willing to store more than a couple of years worth.
This isn't toilet paper, It's not something guaranteed to come back at a similar price as before.
I've already suffered from shortages of multiple *pharma* drugs in the last few years. It's a shock when, in America, in the 21st century, you literally can't fill a prescription for months. Anyone who's experienced this knows how awful it is when something you rely on is unavailable, at any price, for months, never mind years. I'm determined to never be in that position again,
