Is is just me or are all the vendors prices going up, shipping is outrageous, or they are just a dick. I been shopping around for a couple products and messaged quite a few of the vendors and pretty much everyone was a smart ass or changing insane prices or both. I know the shutdown drove prices up a little because of shortage but damn. And no excuse for being a dick at all to paying customers. Idk. Hopefully we will get some new vendors here or they will change there attitude.

 
I haven’t experienced that. And, just a suggestion here, but you might want to have a bit more patience with vendors. Maybe read their last few posts-if they do post anything-and see if anything is going on or if they explained why things are slower or what not. If they don’t post, read the last 2-3 pages and see if any reviews contain any extra info. 
 

I personally have noticed vendors going above & beyond throughout this pandemic. Although the diff mAiL caRrierS are bogging things down w/delays & such, I for one have no had any issues, thankfully. And I know a lot of members who would agree with me. 

 
I have not had the same experience.....the vendors I work with are as nice and patient as always...prices have stayed the same for me. Sucks to hear you’re having this experience! 

 
After my experience with a certain vendor that rhymes with illow, I can tell you that I don’t mind paying for safety. Most vendors are diligent in packing things securely. All it takes is one messy, messy, messy vendor. So.. as long as quality and security are good.. I don’t mind payin.

 
@Sgrbr420 people dont understand . Dollars have no intrinsic value. Ever since Nixon removed pegging USA to gold standard. The goal is moving to cash free society. Yes. Buy real gold and real silver. Buy tangibles. Land. Food. Ammo. Water will be next gold rush. Soon enough, wr will have dollars  for toilet paper, cuurency flying thru the air as trash, in the gutters. See:ZIMBABWE.hell.Conch shells were currency a long time ago. Crypto of course has value, because a programmer and the users SAY it does. Far more than phony digital plastic, at some point.

Sure, fiat currency in concept is tied to agreement of value comparative to other global systems.  But it does have utility intrinsic in its value. You’ll spend 50 dollars on a pair of shoes that maybe I would give 60 for, the value in that is enormously more helpful than “hey how much gold to you want for that gold? “ “dude, just trade me that exact size chunk of gold and I’ll be cool. Here. Wait, which one’s mine?”

also, I feel most products available have no real value either but they’re symbolically valuable. A wedding ring, for example, or a business suit. If everyone wore whatever the wanted to work sensibilities and jealousies and anxiety over proper attire would stall people showing up and working. Then you leave work and go to a bar in your suit may signal “provider, successful, competent, desirable” to a woman who wouldn’t look at the dude in shorts chugging cheap vodka    It’s not intrinsic if you’re a  purists, but it is intricate to have access to an item to use for trade that didn’t first require you to embed with your own work, then waste time finding someone who did the same but you both equally value and are in need of the others good   Plus, as you said you can wipe your sss with it   Toilet paper shortage? Better not have a bar of gold    

anything that enters culture takes on value because 

 
The reason that price risen is almost affected by raw material cost risen in stead of shipping fee risen.

I am speaking from the perspective of a China supplier.

Shipping time become longer is because of the affect of virus.(Less shipping worker)

But it will be normal soon.

Well if you look at prices over the past 8 years or something yes they have gone up. But so has availability of legit pain meds and benzos. The US has made a mess of the so called “opiate epidemic” we have changed prescribing standards and limits. Making doctors afraid of getting in trouble, loosing their license, or even jail time for overprescribing opioids. All that this move has done is made the street opiate scene a mess and cause people in legit pain unable to get proper treatment. An influx of research Chem type opioids to flood the streets. More H than ever before. I have seen no positive effects from their attempts to control dependency and addiction to opiates. They have made things worse. People should be able to get the medications they need and if they are dependent they should be taken care of by a medical professional with proper meds not be forced to subutex/suboxone unless they want to go to a clinic everyday and there still exists huge areas that have no Methadone clinics. Doctors need to push back and prescribe medications the way they feel benefits and results in the most harm reduction for the patient

 
Also I don’t think the slow shipping can be put on the vendors it’s out of our control and it’s in your hands now to plan further ahead and keep a bigger back stash of meds that you may be dependent on 

 
A Vendor of mine recently told me he was no longer able to assist and to find business elsewhere after years of doing business together. Anyone have an idea whats going on?

 
What concerns and bothers me most is the lack of communication from some of the most previously reliable, stalwart vendors.  That makes me believe that some of the issues on their end may be related to legal crackdowns and such and aren't all or only pandemic-related.  I understand if there are stock issues, logistical issues of all kinds, that the pandemic has impacted international shipping immensely--but you'd think they'd keep better open lines of communication with prior customers.  I'd appreciate even disappointing update messages to the effect that "welp, we're trying, but alas we're still not able to get things back on track yet..." but unfortunately communication has been spotty across the board for months it seems. 

 
My 2 cents is I think maybe some vendors may only venture out to ship 1 or 2 days a week . So if one orders say on a fri or Monday , the vendor may only ship on mon and Thur only . Then if a Cim is involved it may have to land or at least be  in The air prior . Yes it’s Covid and all the rest 

 
I am just SOL I can't find any help, vendors that I have used, just yesterday When I ask if they were taking orders, told me NO WE ARE NOT!.

Right now I think I have been scammed by Email Pharm Quality Dear Robbie,  I paid via PayPal Nov 16Th was told shipping 3-5 days, tracking number within

48 hr. Then I had to call Robbie and I receive, at the time did not know, was a bogus TN. The Order never moved from item bagged status since Nov 18Th.

I have made call after call and Robbie says Your order is moving it will be there in 4-5 days. I have sent so many Emails it has made me ill and I have no meds left.

Today he is not answering his phone. I have sent texts, Emails its been almost a month, I have demanded a refund. This vender has cost me so much money and stress. Has anyone ever used this vendor?? Pharm Quality E mail vendor?? DON'T

 
 If you used PP as you say you can dispute it. That is what I would do if it has been a month and is US2US. Typically taking PP is a sign they trust you and also will deliver. It can be reversed even a PPFF can be if "unauthorized". I would email again politely stating you do not wish to do a dispute but in 2 days you will have no choice. I bet you get a refund.

Good Luck

I have not gotten confirmation of this, but I get the feeling it's true from vendor communications

 
I think most are in the same vote, if international, I have 3x letters out there floating around for 7 we..ks now, is it the Ven..ors fault, I say not, If they say they have sent them, I have know reason not to believe this, if from a good source with high ratings, Nor am I going to demand a reship at this point in time, I think they deserve a little longer, given the post state at the moment, just let them know, and relax, not easy, I need my reading martial big time, but without these people (Ven..ors) we would really be in trouble, mine is not for recreational use, I owe what little bit of enjoyment I get out of life and the time spent with my Family to these people (Ven.ors). I am sure there are some out there that may not be so great to deal with, but feel most have there hearts in the right place, I know of a Ven..or who was very sick and died  and up until the end he kept sending mags as he knew what it was like to be in this situation. All that we can do is wait and see, Prices of reading material has gone up but like everything else you now buy has also gone up in price.

These are only my thoughts, but demanding things towards a Ven..or is not going to help at all, There are some really nice ones out there, I could name one now that would see most through if this was allowed, still may take a while to get to you, but the trust is there. But I will be returning to my old ven..or when he is able to reship, as I am a funny person, he has looked after me for a while, so that deserves my loyalty in return....

 
How has things been from tj and DWC? Been awhile and I placed an order but hes always been great for me but just seeing all these problems people are having. I had some issues during the worst of it but it was all delivery related and not my suppliers fault at all. It's been back to norm now.

  4. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Robert Duvall and a handful of others were a younger actors coach and always said no one worked as hard as those guys did. Robert Duvall and rest would read the full script 228 over and over, then after the last read they would go into how to perform their character. The young man had made it to meet Al who are greats and pull them to the side. And explain what his coach said. They all looked back and said out of every role you’ve seen me in. I have read it 228 by myself. 🫡 🫢 🫢 🫢
  5. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Sorry for comment below, but I couldn’t delete. Know I see the
  6. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: Yeah Robert Duvall passing is a hard one. RIP
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Damn. Just heard Robert Duvall passed away Sunday. That’s a tough one. He’s one of my favorite actors. From Lonesome Dove to the Godfather and many others. We will miss you Mr Duvall. You entertained us for 7 decades. RIP
  8. L @ Layne_Cobain: @ClintEastwood make a post about it homie they’re gonna take down your message here cuz shout box isn’t really for talking shop just random shooting the shit exc but yeh just put your message in a post on the forum in the appropriate place and ppl will get at you! 👊 ✌️
  9. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  10. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  11. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  14. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  15. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  16. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  17. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  18. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  19. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  20. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
