So aren't there at least four people in this thread who wanted to get in on this, and didn't?

I didn't count, but it seemed that way.

I'd be in for a second buy, ideally for 100grams but 200 might be ok if there aren't enough people.

Dude, this is the 5th time I'm telling you this!

Yes, I will split the thing with you.

Why keep avoiding me? Do I smell or something?

Lol! I apologise, I just haven't received any PMs, and I've only been vaguely skimming over the latest couple pages. But yes, now that I have been made officially aware of your offer to share, I'm in!

The package will be here soon. I've already written the addresses on the padded mails. Just need some packets to store the 200g in. Also, should I include the compound name purpose and note that it a supplement inside the parcels that will be going to other countries?

I don't think being honest is the best option. Last time a buddy of mine sent me stuff from the US he just wrote "health supplements" on the package and it passed through customs, maybe adding "sample" to it (to indicate it has no real monetary value) would be wise too. On the other hand I dont think uridine is restricted so maybe writing "uridine" would be fine.

I think you are safe to use the "gift" option on the customs form since you are not a business just a person - actually I think that's the only option you can use... and Just simply label it Uridine

I won't be doing a second round for this group buy. Someone else can take over it. However, I consider this group buy a success even though I came out at a loss.

All of the persons participating in this group buy should get their portion in a week or two. Except jolly, since he wanted to change his address.

Sent and sent over again.

The suppliers included a 10g sample of plain vanilla uridine. It's more clumpy and has a little more bitter taste. It definitely works and I think better than UMP. Maybe it absorbs better. I'll get 1kg of vanilla uridine next time.

Didnt MrHappy say 1/3 of vanilla uridine is equivalent to 1 UMP ? If 1kg UMP is enough for 10years, then 1Kg vanilla uridine is enough for THIRTY YEARS lol

I think it was 1/3 of the dose for UMP.

Anyway, I'm done here. This ended up a pain for me and since nothing was transparent things got a little weird at the end with added costs.

Yeah, full transparency for all participants about every aspect of the group buy (especially the financial ones) is definitely a must to avoid misunderstandings/frustrations/weird/uncomfortable situations.

I am interested in a second round. But rather 50g than 100g.

I could do a two way split of 1kg- 500g each- when my uridine starts running low, which should be around December.

And of plain vanilla uridine, since it's more effective and cheaper.

Cool, we'll be in contact. I don't expect BPAP to be synthed any time soon.

Awesome. Was getting worried that you guys didn't get it or something. Hope you're satisfied. I tried giving extra from my portion to you guys.
