    domestic sources take advantage...

    Hey whats up, ever since this deal with china, it seems to be the trend for domestics to jack up prices. To a small degree is understandable, but some are just trying to make a killing. There is no way im gunna shell out that much. Anyone else having this problem? Pretty la me...

    Not only that, but they also have to control demand somewhat. I've seen some faced with a choice: run out of stock, or raise prices to slow things a little.

    When you find something good, you don't mind paying extra IMO.

    Supply and demand my friend. Don't worry though, if you refuse to pay those prices, someone else will.

    Let me put it this way, if you see a domestic source with lower than the average price, beware. Alot of sources are having a hard time finding a new powder source with the chinese powder situation that they can trust if they can find one at all.

    I know one GREAT source that's been in the game for over 5 years that just got scammed out of over 35k thinking he found a new powder source. So we aren't the only ones having a rough time right now.

    i totally understand raising prices as a result of supply and demand, but im talking raising prices by unreasonable amounts, enough that even if this was the only person one would definantly think twice about purchasing. I've seen some double, i personally think that is way too much. Sure, shit maybe scarce, but a product is only worth so much. You can only raise so much until people say **** it, and wait for prices to drop. Actually, theres always some chump who will buy it, nevermind. There is a difference between reasonable increase and taking advance of the situation in a greedy way. But what can we expect, we are forced to buy this shit on the black market thanks to US laws. Funny how laws made to "protect" us end up hurting us...

    As long as there are people willing to pay the money, the prices will stay the same.

    You're telling me. I wouldn't have believed it if it was anyone else. It's happening alot right now. Almost all american ugls are struggling to find new powder. Even more so, they can't be sure of the quality of the powder (IE, potency of the hormone). There's alot more that goes into it than the average bro thinks.

    Well if there is no powder then obviously there are no premades. The guys have to look even harder to find it now and I'm sure that is no picnic at all. Look at how hard it is (for some of you) to find a source to begin with, and these guys have to go a step above that. I have no problem payin an extra 50% for somthing that is getting harder and harder to find. You just need to find a solid source that is private. They usually are a little more regulated because he knows and trusts his clients.

    It's all about business. If I was selling why not raise prices. You will sell it sooner or later.

    You every hear the saying "Never do a felony for free"???

    Just pay the money and get on with it. If you are a loyal customer and don't bitch about every little thing I'm sure they will get ya back on the flipside

    prices have gone up and may continiue to do so ,even when new powder sources are found because they will never be the same price, price increases have been on the low end 50% increase to high end 65% increase, you will also see sources who were good guys disapearing because of scamming or running out of stock, if you have a source and trust him shut up and be happy,your problem is that you were spoiled. Now man up
