I want to chat to you about the ISRIB GROUP BUY. My understanding is that there is nothing wrong with "the original supplier" and in fact you already contracted their services to manufacture the ISRIB and hence cannot simply 'dump them'.
Following this post of yours:
So, I haven't gotten word from the original supplier of ISRIB in about 2 months or so, which is BS. I've spoken with my supplier for BPAP and Pitolisant, which, has already sent me a 1g sample of Pitolisant, which I will test for purity soon enough. I trust this supplier and have nothing but good things to say about him. I think, the synthesis for ISRIB can begin with him in at least a couple of weeks and be done in the latest 2 months. I think this is a great option...
...and due to my receiving a PM from "the original supplier" about the same time, I have spoken with them and their version of events differs from yours. This is what they have said to me YESTERDAY:
Yadayada didn't really contact me after I told him that I won't be shipping to everybody in group buy, I use couriers that charge too much money and it would raise price considerably. First I have posted information that every order will be delayed and then destabilization of relations happened (BPAP). We had to start again new synthesis in new company - law in my country is very strict in these matters. My hope was that I would send you ISRIB with PRL... Both compounds will be ready in 3 weeks.
They have also informed me that they have previously informed you that the price will be US$1,200, which is inclusive of EU VAT and shipping to me, but obviously does not include the $14.50 per person shipping cost to cover the cost of shipping individual quantities to individual participants.
Here's what they have said specifically:
Yadayada originally ordered 25g of ISRIB at 900 USD, later he agreed to 1200 USD, and for delays (because our main company is no longer producing for you guys) I promised a 20% bonus, so final order was for 30g/ 1200USD. 1200 USD with VAT and shipping to anywhere on earth included.
Therefore, the TOTAL AMOUNT that you need to obtain from everyone (assuming there are still 10 number participants) = 1,200 + 145 = US$1,345
My understanding is that you have obtained a total of only US$900 from everyone, so you will need to obtain the difference, namely a total of $445, which assuming there are still 10 participants works out to be = US$44.50 per person
You will then be able to pay the lab the US$1,200 cost of the ISRIB; and then pay me the US$145 shipping costs.
The lab will then mail the whole ISRIB quantity to me, wherein I would measure out and mail the individual quantities (3 GRAMS PER EACH) to all 10 participants (retaining none for myself).
What is the problem here exactly?
