Haidut is poisoning our balls with dogshit solvents?! these solvents instead mog? find out in the next episode of dragonball Z

I remember reading people complaining on RPF about the K2, but I didn’t see anything substantiated. I thought it was a color difference in batches that people freaked out over. I’d have to go back and look again.
I think we’re on the same page with the idealabs bottles which is that they are no good, especially when you consider the solvents, yes?
I’ve been hit or miss with the customer service. One time the dropper hole didn’t work for the viscosity of the fluid (hole was too big and the stuff would fly out) and they sent me new caps asap. Another time the solution separated and wouldn’t mix again. They were supposed to send out a replacement and never did.
100% agree with feeling confident in his research.

@sphagnum HN literally admitted to me over email that they did sell bad K2 product. you can ask them yourself. They seem like well-intentioned people but they, like many other "family-run" businesses don't know what good customer service is and probably operate on this assumption that their self professed expertise (which I dont doubt they have, although it is ironic that for all the hype they talked about their k2 supplement synth process and expertise that they couldn't even verify the quality properly before selling it) ) translates into the customer being willing to tolerate their bad business practices. Haidut's company has elements of this bad customer service as well (shipping wrong product, not ideal dropper bottle design and changing viscosity of solutions leading to product being spurted out and wasted when customer gets a new batch and expects the pressure needed to dispense to be the same, their caps breaking the bottles when tightened just a bit too much, etc) but what im saying is their research and types of products offered makes their bad customer service worth tolerating . HN not so much for me
I mean when haidut's company comes down to it, is just a repackaging service for powders from sigma Aldrich , and to a smaller extent a go between for custom synths from labs. they dont offer a quality / quantitative guarantee. it's worth it for many people to pay $50 for an overpriced bottle of something rather than trying to get the powder themselves and do it, but tbh for easy to get stuff like progesterone and dhea, I got a hot plate with magnetic stirrer and some beakers and just mix my own now. saves a lot of money and I think the quality is fine. and for some reason I dont really trust their liquid synthetic thyroid products to not degrade, idk why, I have zero proof or knowledge about this, but id rather buy pharmaceutical thyroid products, same goes with their cyproheptadine, I pay the ridiculous price to get the tablets from a north american pharma company because there is virtually no question about if when a tablet says it has 4mg it has 4mg. haidut has never posted an analysis of any of his products.

@sunsunsun
Thorough assessment on both.
I do also like that Idealabs offers different solvent options on some products which is a step above. I just wish they would offer a glass bottle option as the difference in packing price and shipping cost would be pocket change. If they charged the honest cost difference, I’d be more than happy to jump on that.Where’d you source cypro? The idealabs one did nothing for me, even if I went heavier than recommended. I started off super worried about oversleeping or being sluggish the next day, but I never even got baseline “well rested,” even when going heavy.

@sphagnum I get the JAMP cypro from biosense in in BC Canada, its $130 CAD for 100 x 4mg tablets which is the normal price to buy it from a pharmacy in Canada. I asked them and they said they will ship internationally for anyone that wants it. If you want to try Indian pharmaceuticals it is available for basically pennies on the dollar but I've never verified quality. I usually buy name brand medications from domestic manufacturers when I can unless I see proof that the generic product is as good. name brand stuff is really expensive in comparison though.
actually post like yours is why I didn't bother with idealabs cypro, someone on rpf also said the same thing, that it didn't do anything. meanwhile a quarter of the tablet (1mg) that I take has distinct effects. maybe the idealabs cypro is fine but I just dont bother risking it. once I got wuflu really bad and I sure was glad I had a bottle of Pharma cypro tablets because I was taking like 6 to 8 a day to help and it was a big help.
