I’m trying to price and compare but there’s so many of them and they seem so sketchy and spammy and I have no idea how to even begin

I paid 195$ for 10x 30mg vials of tirzepatide for my last order. If you’re paying more you’re being fleeced, you can get it direct from China for half as much (but the batch will definitely have no testing). Please message me if you have questions.

    I bought mine from edited out because I realize this wasn’t a pm lol, they test every batch they sell through janoshik (probably the most respected peptide tester) and include the results. They also reimburse members of the community who send their own vials for testing as a way to show that they don’t bullshit the results. You can take a look at their telegram channel. In terms of US vendors this is who I would suggest, you just have to wait for them to do presales for the GLPs for the good prices.

    Otherwise there’s stairwaytogrey which is where you’ll find all the Chinese vendors (join the telegram). That’s more Wild West and you have to go out of your way if you wanna get stuff tested as a group or try to find out if a batch you bought from a vendor was already tested by a group. But it’s dirt cheap.

    Same lol. I've been sitting on them for over a year now, too afraid to actually put that stuff in me.

    You use any specific online calculator for dosing?

    Did you buy from China? Or from a middleman that had the batch tested? Honestly if it was tested I’d really not worry about it (and even if it wasn’t I personally feel that stuff like tirzepatide tests as clean so often in the grey space that subcutanous injections done properly really don’t represent that much risk).

    With the GLPs I’d say start with half the recommended starting dose for your first week to assess if you’re a super responder. Splitting the dose into bi weekly can also help smooth out the intensity if the side effects are too much. I personally ended up using a smart scale and only increased my dose when I was plateauing, which helped keep the effects mild (also lower doses meant spending even less).

    Make sure to reconstitute with Hospira bacteriostatic water, the other stuff is such a crapshoot and not worth the risk. Watch videos on how to do injections/recon/etc.

    I’ll offer something of a testimonial. My partner has been using “Hers” GLP-1 injection for a bit over a year now since our insurance stopped covering the prescription ones for weight maintenance alone.

    It works well, the process of getting a letter of medical necessity etc. was painless from their physicians. We’re able to expense it to an FSA so that offsets the cost a bit, but it’s definitely more expensive than the prescribed medication was with copay.

    Hi, just adding that I recently bought tirzepatide from China (grey market) and have started pinning. It's a fraction of the cost on prescription (literally night and day) and it arrived within 6 days. It's DIY and might not suit your risk profile but I'm very happy so far so if you're interested, feel free to DM me and I can give you more details
