Yeah but it's bullshit to ask more money for just few tests, they can afford 100x more tests and still do stellar profit

Oh OK. I see I misunderstood you. Sure, the customers will decide what is acceptable from the vendors. I'm just providing the cost data for the additional testing. In the worst case where the vendor passes all that on to the customer and the customer agrees.
Everyone has the cost data now.

Based on your current projects, what is the “harm” that your additional testing is going to reduce? So far, the testing hasn’t detected anything harmful. What’s the justification in a source analyzing more? Other than appeasement?

Projects 2 and 3 are not complete. This isn't exhaustive testing of the marketplace, and I personally see the value of surveillance. The QC/QA process is never complete just like the HPLC testing isn't one and your done.
I don't have the data to conclude anything harmful has been detected yet. I've been very clear on the results thus far and will continue to do so. People can decide for themselves if the testing is useful. I am providing a demonstration.
It is domestic, and I'll pay the $5-$10 premium all day for comprehensively tested products.
With most other products, there's top shelf available for the connoisseur, cheap garbage for the unwashed masses, and everything in between. Why not gear?

You’d pay $5-$10 more if it was tested and didn’t have anything bad in it even if none of that bad shit would ever be in there??? That’s crazy.
I think someone needs to find something that’s a concern before there's a need for “premium” testing. So far none of the testing has identified anything that’s a real concern.
Otherwise you’re paying for a premium label and getting the SAME product.
Agreed!!
Not too long ago I remember paying $160 for 10ml of 200mg/ml test from a clinic. Finding domestic sources here was a godsend as far as price.
When you see how many vendors run sales or promos……..there’s obviously room there as far as profit margins go. They are certainly not sending illegal drugs in the mail to lose money. But even so, adding $5 to each vial is something I, and many others no doubt, would gladly pay for considering we will be injecting this stuff into our bodies for the rest of our lives.

It isn't the same product..
Oil quality comes into play in international vs domestic brewed gear.
Smaller sources may(or may not) put some concern for quality of oil they utilize.

You will never know if you don't do the surveillance. Hence any QC/QA program is a journey, not a destination.
The need is surveillance. Otherwise you ask me to show you the issue but magically I'm supposed to come up with the data from thin air.
The community must decide what the data is worth and the pressure that needs to be applied to obtain it.

I am writing this with no numbers at hand, which Readalot obviously has, to come up with this figure, so I am just talking out of my backside.
But I agree, on first impression, even "just " 5$ more x vial seems like a lot.
Is the source executing all the tests in the first place? But also, like Sampei says, they would be able to absorb the cost x vial, to a good extent.
They have big margins on this stuff, I believe.
Of course, not everyone is a massive operation like Qsc, where that can easily happen.
Domestic sources, however, are still moving big quantities of products.
I am in the camp that doesn't mind paying more.
But what is fair, also, and not be taken for a ride with this used as an excuse to overcharge people.

Do you think QSC will do this?

You could test for other stuff. You could test for everything under the sun.
No concern for fent?
Well put.
And this new realm of testing is what will emphasize that it’s not the same. Without testing, data, and more information things can appear to be the same.

Will do what?
Testing?

“Oil quality” is pretty general.
What specifically? Are you saying that Pharmacom or Pharmaqo or QSC (large international) use “better” quality oils than small domestics? Or vice versa?
the opposite

Yes, the expanded readalot testing

You are not making a lot of sense now.
You don't believe that sources' products may be of a different quality, to begin with? In terms of both what they use and the procedures used?
You cannot seriously think this.
This is what some of the testing would expose

Ok. Understood.
But what would be the concern (w/o quoting some twat like Vigorous Steve, lol)
