If you guys wanna get in with ALP you should do so soon. He is on AB. However, most of the year he is private. He will open, as he has here, for a time and then close.
The member flex with 1 post touched on the min issue. For a long while ALP's min was $500. There was a time when a higher min was the norm. It tends to bring a more "mature" crowd and keeps the kids away as 1 post flex said. That isn't to say, by any means, that if you can't handle a higher min that you're a fucking retard. It's nothing personal and it's unfortunate that some good folks are left out but it does keep kids away.
It does come across ignorant and not bright when guys complain about a min and say it's a lot to risk "right out of the gate". Are you saying after this $100 initial order you'll be back with a $400 order? No, you won't. Why? Because this source didn't just hit the scene. The "test" orders have been done for you a decade ago. You aren't risking anything and doing anyone any favors by coming back posting "touchdown" and that you got your 2 vials. No shit. They have nothing to prove and are catering to a certain demographic. That's all there is to it.
