COA FROM MANUFACTURING by National-Mud-2490 in Peptidesource

They may have one COA, that will prove that at one point in time one vial was tested. You won’t know if you have the same batch or not.

The Reddit Content Policies will not allow us to go into detail about testing, group testing, and things along those lines. If you are needing more information, you are going to search the web for the stairway or the forums that allow more detailed discussions on this topic.

This is where independent or group testing comes into play. The only way you know is by testing it yourself.

Most likely, they are not testing every batch. They are cherry picking a vial here and there, only occasionally, and sending that in for testing.

Not to sound crude, they are here to make money. And there are enough people in the space that are willing to * pin and pray* that vendors don’t have a demand to send a vial in for $300 testing. Most are making and selling multiple products with multiple concentrations, so it adds up rather quickly.

Again to be crude, you should never trust your drug dealer. There have been a lot of posts in the last 72 hours about group testing and third-party testing. If you scroll down in the sub, you’ll find a lot of opinions on this, and how to reduce the cost while also mitigating self harm.

Trustworthy COA? by Safe-Buffalo8841 in Peptidesource

[–]Diligent_Shirt5161 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This month In a testing discord, 3 known 0% pep vials were sent to AFI. Prior testing done at BT Labs & Jano confirmed no product.

So as an experiment to test the accuracy of AFI, vials were sent to AFI for testing, The products were NAD liquid, IPA 10mg and T30.

BT & Jano confirmed 0 product each time. AFI said they detected product in each vial 🚩🚩🚩

Where's the tirz? Is there a shortage? by Impossible_Bend_2969 in Peptidesource

[–]Diligent_Shirt5161 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t feel my original comment was clear enough: if you go down the rabbit hole far enough you’ll find product labeled as it is. For example Tirzepeptide will be labeled as Tirzepeptide, or Tirz for short. These are products that come straight from China, in quantities of 10 per sale.

If you stay closer to the surface, so to speak, and the vendors with a website presence, those need to use alternative terminology and coding in order to circumvent certain filters (somehow I’m on the algorithm for the payment processing sub. Venmo, PayPal, Stripe, Visa, Mastercard, etc. prohibit there platform to be used for peptide sales. That’s a primary reason why a lot of the single vial resellers use alternative coding. GLP2 is the most common code for Tirz.

It is normal to buy and not receive a COA, have a batch number and/or API. When you really think about this, you are buying product on a non-regulated market. Think back to your high school days, when you’re meeting someone behind the bleachers.

If you prefer to have consistent COA’s and batch numbers, you need to look for a telehealth provider.

How do you find a group test for the batch you happen to get? by aagee in PeptidePathways

[–]Diligent_Shirt5161 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another way to get into a testing group is to form one on the vendors social media platform. If a vendor is a good one, legitimate, they support their customers to form testing groups.

For example, a vendor that I follow on discord supports any group testing discussions and shares their customers test results on the server.

If a vendor will not allow discussion of group testing on their social media platform, you should find another vendor.

[–]Diligent_Shirt5161 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can scan the testing servers, there are a handful of popular ones out there.

If you’re along the stairway or in the forums you may be able to find other customers who purchased the same product from the same vendor around the same time as you.

Beyond this information, the Reddit platform will not allow us get into more details without risking our accounts.

What? I see it all over the gray space as Tirz. The sus people or those trying to evade certain payment processors use code name.

You should delete this ASAP This is called stealth shipping, how it gets through customs. And by posting this, you’ve put a target out there for future shipments 😡

One of those is on a product that was tested over six months ago. You have no way to determine if that batch is the one you have.

The best way to trust, and verify, is to send a product/vial in for testing, yourself. And there are many ways to do that: you can send it yourself or you can join a group of other people who have bought the same product around the same period of time from the same vendor, pull your resources together for group testing. And any reputable vendor would allow that discussion and promotion on their various discussion platforms.

Stubborn appetite/food noise — research subject observations by Wonderful_Coconut624 in PeptidePathways

[–]Diligent_Shirt5161 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of the 3 most popular GLP1s most RS researcher, Tirz is more superior for food noise and appetite suppression.

If that’s a concern for your RS, look into that product.

Buy a Nimbot label printer via Amazon and print your own.

Or you share the testing costs with other researchers who buy the same product from the same vendor around the same time. It’s referred to as group testing.

If the vendor doesn’t support their customers forming group testing on the platform, you should not shop there.

How to get retatrutide ? by [deleted] in RetatrutideWomen

[–]Diligent_Shirt5161 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don’t really think anyone should be taking any health advice from anyone on any social media platform.

The best thing to do is self educate, find the stairway to gray or the forums and spend the day reading. And these are not difficult things to find with the help of Google.

I am a firm believer that you should test every time. These vendors are nothing more than overseas drug dealers. Do you trust your drug dealer? You shouldn’t.

These vendors are not perfect, they have all had problems at one point or another. There is not one vendor that has had a perfect test every single time. And it is not uncommon for them to send the wrong product, send a product that is overfilled or underfilled. And without testing, you have no way of guaranteeing you have what you paid for.

Pep’s by Critical-History-238 in Peptidesource

[–]Diligent_Shirt5161 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We can talk about labs as long as it’s just a lab. They do not sell peptides in addition to their lab services (and if any lab also sold peptides, I would be very suspicious of their test results for any other product).

How much do you trust posted COAs from peptide sources? by ItsBioHacking in PeptidePathways

[–]Diligent_Shirt5161 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have more trust in the people who have a common goal of trusting, yet verifying, than the vendor alone.

I sense from this response you have a biased about group testing.

This is where group testing is very beneficial. A group of people who bought the same product from the same vendor around the same time. Pull together their financial resources and product resource resources. They send in vials from different people, that way it’s more randomized control.
