Spotting Fake Gear?

Hi guys. So I recently got my hand on some testosterone e from a lab for my next mass gaining cycle.10ml for about 65$.
While I am no expert in pricing it seemed too cheap for me so I was wondering if it’s a fake one.

Thank you!

We don’t discuss brands or sources on the site, which includes pics of gear.

You may be able to get some input from the guys based on the info you’ve provided. Otherwise, it helps to remember that buying drugs is a pretty consistent caveat emptor situation.

Oh sorry for breaking the rules I just knew about that right now. but as you said I may just need to roll with it and see if it’s working or not. Thank you!

From what I’ve seen that seems a bit overpriced. I also see here quite frequently that test is not very common to be faked.

Thanks bro. Yeah it is supposed to be cheap but illegal stuuf are always overpriced

65 seems about right to me. I’ve seen cheaper $40 and I’ve seen more expensive $75.

If anything it is on the high price side of things. You could buy a test kit on Amazon. I don’t think you can tell strength, but at least you can tell if it has test in it.

Nah that’s about the right price. Whether its fake or not who knows. Test is rarely faked but I think I got some fake test on my last cycle to be honest so who knows.

Holy Hell, you guys are paying $65 for a vial of test?? It’s like $35-45, max. Actual pharma stuff from overseas is in the $55-65 range, with a few exceptions. $65 would be a little high for UGL primo.

$65!! Wow here on my side of the world Test is around $25. Most expensive would be about $27. Primo being the most expensive about $60. Heck Dbol is about $10.

Depending on source and where you are ordering from $65 seems within the realm of what you would find early in your source searching journey.

The first source I used, and I was referred by a friend, is right now currently pricing a bottle of 250 test enanthate for $55. They are in turkey and try to be a higher quality UGL. They also have incentives like X number of free items for $250 spent then more free items for $500 and so on. So it’s easy to spend a little bit of money and get those costs down per bottle. I know I certainly made bigger orders than I needed just to get the larger amount of free bottles so I could get my average cost per bottle down.

The other source I used for a while and this one is a large site that is kind of like a hub for numerous UGLs to sell through. The brand I usually went with sells a 250 test enanthate for $52 but has bulk discounts (10 packs) and also has various promo sales, currently that 250 is $41. That brand ships out of Moldova. The other brands on the site start at about $36 but that’s out of Thailand I think. The ampules of quasi wanna be human grade start at the $5 dollar per mark but you can get them down pretty quickly buying over 20 at a time. Off the bat the first page buying 50 of one brand out of eastern Europe goes down to $3 for an ampule.

Remember shipping adds to those prices.

Now if your talking about a domestic USA source then the test enanthate 250 bottle costs $65. Buying from a source that has already risked the importation of an illicit substance always adds cost. When ordering the exact same bottle from the international sister site you will only pay $50 but it will of course be shipped from an overseas address. Again I think that gets shipped from eastern Europe somewhere. I will say I did use their domestic site, it was a fast turnaround like less that a week I had it in my hand but I had to wire money to their home country in eastern Europe, I forget where exactly.

Now to put all of that into perspective let’s look at raw powder costs. Remember a bottle of test enanthate 250 has 2500 mgs of test or 2.5 grams of test in it. So when we look at the prices figure out price per gram then multiply by 2.5.
One source sells 10 grams for $45, 100 grams for $130 and a kilo gram for $610 These guys are priced to capitalize on small personal use home Brewers but their availability is CRAZY! They carry EVERYTHING!

Another source sells 10grams for $10, 100 grams for $80 and a kilo for $500. Obviously they are priced to appeal to the personal use home brewer. They carry mainly hormones, pct, some prohormones and SARMs and they also carry premade but it is in larger 50mls and up containers that you have to sterile filter and bottle yourself.

A third source prices 10 grams for $30, 100 grams for $80 and a kilo for $650. I cannot figure out who they are priced to appeal too. I guess the home brewer personal user that wants less availability with their source, the source is strictly hormones and PCT stuff. Everyone else has Viagra, SARMs, weird ass DHEA and derivatives, prohormones, and some even carry anti prolactin stuff like prami and caber raws.

I urge anyone and EVERYONE to go and look for raw powder sources and request a price list. You really need to know what this stuff costs them so you can see if their prices are totally off or about right. If an UGL is selling it’s test 250 for $50 and it’s primo 200 for $50 their mark up doesn’t compute as consistent. It doesn’t mean the primo is bullshit but it does make me wonder how they price their mark up and if that primo is even primo. After all how can they almost make $20 per gram of test which is something like 2000% then go and only make like $5 on a gram on primo for something like 30%? Don’t get me wrong they could do that on the primo because they know the consumer will get other products when they order so it could be like their loss leader but you as the informed consumer need to be able to spot that and understand it.

Another thing you should know is what countries have no or very lax steroid laws. When I was in college everyone claimed their shit was from Greece because Greece doesn’t require a prescription so anyone can get humane grade and mail it out. Realistically probably all the “Greek” stuff was actually from Mexico.

That’s about what I pay ‘domestic’. If I were to order international sure… cheaper. I should have clarified as I honestly forgot that I pay more for the ease and quickness of local source.

Yeah guess my source is trying to use us. I was told guys in the capital sell it for 40$. This dude probably cheating us, he sells freaking 100 tabs of 10mg of winstrol for 70$, which I think expensive for any place in the world.

Wow! what a thourough and specified answer. I can’t really thank you enough for all those informations. But as you said it will be better to look into guys who carry huge amounts since their prices would be cheaper. Actually, I just found out some guys sells 10ml of 250mg test e for just about 40$ and their packaging looks cleaner.

Nice !
