Could you please provide update on when floater free / better stopper finished oils will be only stock being shipped out?

I'd like to have basis for tracking QC issues moving forward given the process improvements you have noted.

What's fascinating about this is usually non-native English speakers don't master the art of sarcasm, but this is damn fine work. Love the shade.

Not sure about that.. lol. More like people still learning a language (or new to a culture) may not pick sarcastic cues in said language (or culture). This vanishes with time.

Speaking of sarcasm, here is what I'd like to write.

ALRIGHT DUDE GLAD YOU'RE HERE TO OFFER YOUR FACT CHECKING ON THIS CRITICAL TOPIC ON WHICH YOU'RE CLEARLY AN EXPERT
 
Tren H labeled on our bottles....no wonder a bunch of packs are in customs. Derrp

That ain't it. If they end up getting grabbed it'll be mostly just be bad luck. 5 mil packs coming from china a day now. They can't possibly inspect more than .001% of them.

That's why they've got such a hard on for accurate data on customs forms now, and they're going to hit the shipping companies where it hurts when they find any bullshit info, so they learn to police themselves.

I bet that's what happened was some faulty paperwork on their part

Just to be clear, a hundred companies or more are shipping packs in a container, and they all provide their own data to the shipper for the customs paperwork. The shipping company can only do so much, they're not going to open every box and analyze the contents. What they can do is ban certain companies from using their services if they have a history of providing false data, and US customs starts driving the point home with tens of thousand in fines for each incident.

Of course none of this is about gear, or even fentanyl really, It's about making sure a system is in place to know the accurate value of the contents of each box so duties can be charged. That's going to be worth tens of billions a year.

I'll give you one example of the way the system is being abused. Some high value products are being assembled in the US using parts being shipped from foreign countries as if they're consumer goods worth less than $800 per box, so they're untaxed. Some factories in the US have had packages of parts shipped to employees to avoid the customs duties for commercial goods.

They recently caught an entire helicopter, minus the blades, shipped this way.
 
I just received my promo Test C order, but all the vials are labeled Tren H. I’ve already contacted the rep, and they’re insisting that these vials do contain Test C.

Honestly, this seems like a strange (and questionable) marketing decision by QSC. I’ve never ordered Tren H before, but does it typically have the classic burnt piss color that other trens are known for? These vials are completely clear, but all of them appear to have crashed.

I don’t think it’s unreasonable to be skeptical here. I’ll send one vial off to Jano for confirmation, but it just feels… odd, to say the least, to label vials Tren H if they’re actually Test C.

Tracy, is this true ?
Mine has the Tren H sticker on it too. I got some Test P, not crashed but still good to go. Pin that shit and don’t worry.

Oooo. Maybe Tracy can hook us up with a helicopter or hovercraft.

Does Jano offer test-pilot services? Do we ship the craft to him, or does he send the pilot to us?

The shit I come across reading for business lol


“On any given day, we could receive and process 750,000 to a million de minimis shipments,” said Andrew Renna, assistant port director for cargo operations at JFK Airport, told Frontline.

“We have limited resources,” he said. “We only have x-number of staff. There is no physical way, even if I doubled or even tripled my staffing, that I could look at a significant percentage of that. So due to the volume, it’s a very exploitable mode of entry into the US.”

There has been much talk of changing the de minimis threshold.

“On Capitol Hill, you’ve got two camps – the revenue hawks that say ‘look how much money we’re missing by having an $800 de minimis. We could be collecting so much more in taxes’’ – that’s the first one. The second is the fentanyl people, who say ‘look how dangerous it is’.

There is another group: US producers afraid of being blown away by impossible prices.. especially in the clothing business. Even costco can't compete against 9 dollar off brand hoodies

Well, yeah. Environmental restrictions, occupational safety and health laws, living wages all tend to make 1st world manufacturers somewhat less competitive.

One effectively "outsources" pollution and poor working conditions, and even slave labor, by freely importing goods produced under these circumstances.

Then again cheap Chinese goods have helped middle class and lower people maintain a decent standard of living as wealth becomes concentrated in an ever shrinking percentage of the population.

In my opinion, the tide may be held back for a little while, but ultimately with technology spreading at a faster and faster pace, along with improvements in education, the center of gravity will shift east, to India, China, and all of Southeast Asia. Walk through the center of Bangkok, Shenzen, or Hanoi and tell me those cities don't feel like the future more than any western city. Even Japan, arguably a "western country", feels like it's falling behind.
