is nods shit REALLY that much better than purist's? ive just never tried nod because well....fuck its so expesive. but seriously side by side comparisons anybody?
I don't brag much but I'm pretty stoned so my lips are a bit loose today =)
As always, I wonder if i'll regret it. I always wonder. Usually don't. This time.. I probably am =). Oh well! If so maybe I'll learn not to write forum posts stoned going forward.
I make a point not to talk about other vendors but I'm going to slip a bit this once because of a recent episode. I'll try to keep the other vendor talk short and speak mostly about my product.
A trusted customer recently forwarded to me a message from Purest where he claimed he was using my connection. This is NOT true - nobody knows who my connection is, and besides that I have multiple high level connections and they are over 1,000 miles apart so it's not simply extraordinarily unlikely that purest is using my connection, it's flat impossible since he wouldn't even know which one. I was able to determine by explaining to him what to look for that the product purest sent him contained a sugar cut (which is really poor - no offense to purest, perhaps it was the guy above him, but sugar is the worst thing to cut BTH with, it's hard on the lungs and there are better options). Purest also gave this customer bad advice on cutting the product more, and then bad instructions on how to make a cheese - on top of claiming to use my source(!). This pretty much pissed me off.
That's all I want to say about, the rest of this message will be focused on my product. Hopefully I didn't cross the line. If a mod thinks I did please message me and I'll edit that and be sure to stay within bounds in the future.
But back to talking about MY products, here's the scoop:
I've been doing this for 9 months now which is an eternity here, and as a result of time and effort my sources are improving, with two very significant improvements in the last few months. I don't want to get in to details but let's just say I have two direct connections in to major players an the result is substantially improved product.
Generally when vendors come in this market they start with a good product and then when that connection does their quality goes down. This happens to all of us as we all jump in with one source and then something goes wrong. It did me as well early on but I was able to buy another players's connection to isolate custoemrs from me. As a business man I saw the importance of good connections and I kept working on this and now I've got a few connections that are remarkably better than the others. This has really paid off because now I can choose from these top connections whichever supplier is offering the highest quality product.
There is another HUGE benefit to having been established a while. When an operation gets big enough as mine did recently it's possible to maintain enough inventory that if the suppliers have quality issues you can survive the drought by waiting it out. They come up with poor quality product, all the small time or disorganized dealers have no choice but to take what they can get but I get to turn it down and wait it out until the premium product rolls around again. This advantage dramatically improve product quality.
Lastly, when you start spending enough money with a supplier your business starts to matter to them. I am very important to my suppliers due to the volume of business I send their way (and more importantly that I always bring cash, am very low risk to them, and can help them out in a pinch to make deals happen that they otherwise could not). Because of how much I help them on the very rare occasion that I end up with bad product somehow they are happy to take it back. This is unheard of in the drug world, but I get this benefit because my business is important to them so they just buy the product back and give it to a less important customer.
As a result of the above my product line is now absolutely stable (the heroin and meth are - coke is not quite there yet but I'm homing in). Since I have this rock solid stability I have even taken to naming the source and product type within it so that I can communicate effectively with customers about which product they received and what they think of it. I send samples out to customers and ask for their feedback.
Since supply has become so consistently recently I've gone to keeping track of the suppliers and which style from each supplier in order to effectively communicate to customers what they will be receiving (in contrast to nearly all other vendors who change it up secretly). At this time I have I have 3 adequate types of heroin (Heroin Type D, F, and G) and three adequate types of Coke (Coke type B, C, and D). I get customer feedback on products and when I am certain one is best I switch it it, leaving a post on the forums indicating such.
Due to all of these things the product I have is not only rock solid consistent, but the quality is FAR superior to the competition. We're not talking feet and inches here, it's miles.
So the obvious question: How do we know that Nod isn't full of shit? Here's why:
* There are zero dissatisfied customers on this forum (Open call - has anybody here had a bad gram from me that I did not repair?)
* Next we can look at the reviews. If we ere to ignore the wonderful people with 50 posts and look for the well respected forum members there are 10 reviews from people with many hundreds of posts minimum. Every one says what I sell is the absolute best (One review from sbmafia is neutral - he was coming off suboxone so there is some confusion with him. I'm working with him to see if we can get him a second chance to evaluate with a clean palette).
* But here's the doozie: Yesterday I had to switch from Coke Type C to Coke Type B, a minor downgrade. I did the unthinkable: I TOLD the community I would be switching to an inferior product the night before. This cost me business but it was required to maintain integrity. Because I admit this it gives validity to my positive clais too. Has any vendor here ever done that? If not then no other vendor can be trusted to say when their product is good since they hide when it is bad. I can, as demonstrated by the aforementioned post disclosing this even though it hurt sales.
That last line is huge because it makes it clear that I am the only (or at the least, rare) vendor who has enough integrity to tell the truth about their product. You can't believe a vendor who always says "it's better!" without also admitting when it's worse. I do however do that so you CAN trust me.
This means I'm the vendor who has never left a customer dissatisfied, who is repeatedly reviewed by respected members as the top of the pile, and who's product line is now stable enough that I am able to effectively communicate to customers exactly what they are getting rather than swapping things in slyly.
And now that I've established through verifyable claims that I am truthful about my product, here comes the real bragging:
At this time I have absolute confidence that no other BTH vendor here has a product which is even in the same ball, the runner up is 35% less potent (there are many other important characteristics to top quality heroin but I don't want to go in to that here).
But there's more than that. Here's the one that will have people squinting and looking sideways. I am not quite ready to make this statement as a few more stones remain unturned but I have been researching the #4 market in hopes to enter it and my research is nearly done (not quite, but close). If the final few results are what I expect I will soon be be able to make this bold claim: My Type-G product is THE most potent heroin on SR, outperforming by weight every #4 and CW product currently shipping on SR
That's really an embarassment. #4 and CW are by definition about twice as potent as my product so this is not technically possible. The discrepancy here is that nobody here actually sells a #4 or CW product. These refer to purity standards and every vendor here is selling a cut product (whether cut by them or their distributor) and is not properly classified as #4/CW despite being listed there. Early on SupremeSmoke had legit product but discussed on this forum his quality dropped a while back. For a very long time deadhead777 sold genuine #4 but he recently lowered his product quality to fit the mainstream.
Maybe we'll get lucky and somebody will come up with a genuine #4/CW product. That would be PRETTY cool! It'd probably have to be a vendor who was seriously about product quality.. who might do that..
So as to your question about whether my product is that much more potent than purest's current product: Yes, it's not even close. Not only is the potency tremendoulsly higher, I have no cut in my Type G and more importantly I can supply this consistenly rather than underhandedly swap this out to pass on bad product to a customer (since I just turn down bad product and have the clout to return if I do take some on accident).
I am not a drug dealer, I am a businessman and have handled all the things that need to be handled to guarantee every customer the best heroin on SR every single time without fail, and the proof is right here in the forums - overwhelming positive feedback with no complaints in the 9 months I've been in operation - something nobody else can claim
I am worried that once I throw down the gauntlet I am going to have to undo a bunch of misinformation on #3/#4 and BTH. I have myself to blame a bit for this to some extent, I wrote the definitive reference for the difference in these forums a few months back but I was in a hurry and left some details out which allowed people to draw poor conclusions. I may have to make a post on that to settle things, but that's for another day. Hopefully when I am sober =)
