EDIT #5: I'm very sorry. I believe my ban has been lifted, but I had things I had to take care of and couldn't respond. I'll be back in a few hours to respond to everything. Thank you!
My goal is to get as many helpful drugs into as many hands as possible. I would like to give it all away for free, but that doesn't seem sustainable. So far, the best I can come up with is to simply buy in bulk, and sell at cost plus expenses/overhead.
Does anyone else have any ideas on how I can decrease cost and price?
I intend to source as many chemicals from PIHKAL and TIHKAL as I can find, and then distribute them as cheaply as I possibly can. There will be no bulk discounts for my customers. I will just offer single doses for whatever the bulk rate would be, and everyone can purchase as many doses as they would like. The only markup will be to cover the cost of delivery, shipping, packaging supplies, rent for work house, and food for employees.
Most supplies can be purchased on Amazon.com with re-ships and refunds. So Amazon.com's generosity will help with some of the overhead.
What else can I do to get the community product for less?
I had considered relying on donations alone, but if I were to receive no donations, the business would fail and everyone would lose.
With what I have come up with so far, here are the prices I believe I would be able to offer per dose.
LSD (100ug) - $2
MDMA (100mg) - $1.5
MDA (75mg) - $3.50
XTC Press (220mg) - $5
Cannabis (1 g) - $3.50
Mushrooms (3.5g) - $7.50
2C-B (15mg) - $2
There would also be many more chemicals, like 4-AcO-DMT, 5-MeO-DMT, 5-MeO-DiPT, 5-MeO-MiPT, 2C-E, 2C-I, 2C-P, etc etc but I do not have all prices in front of me at the moment.
You would have to also pay for shipping, and that would be US Domestic only (most likely). $5.95 for larger orders, $3 for small orders
Help me find a way to lower my prices?
What else can I do?
Thanks
EDIT #1:
I have a limited supply of Orange Teslas, and plenty of very high purity MDMA. Tell me where you would like to see me vend, and I will have posts up this week. I will need to add a small markup temporarily in order to cover the cost of start up, and to get new product. But, every time a new product is introduced, the prices for all products will go down.
For instance. Right now I have 500 Teslas and 250g MDMA. In order to cover the cost of 1 LB of Cannabis, I will need to add $2/g to the MDMA and $1/pill of the Teslas. Then, once $1,000 has been grossed, in order to compensate the grower for 1 LB of weed, the prices will come down slightly, and weed will be offered at $5/g. Then, once enough is brought in again, a new product will be sourced, and all prices will go down a little bit more. Once all products have been funded, the prices should level out as listed above.
EDIT #2:
I would like to set up my own vendor shop, to avoid market down times and admin scamming. If anyone has any suggestions for this that doesn't involve scammers like Cyrus and Dark Net Solutions, please let me know.
Does anyone know about the viability of creating a simple ZeroNet site to distribute my menu and contact info? If it can be securely and anonymously on ZeroNet, customers can use that to contact me via email and place a direct order. This would serve to further lower prices, as I would not need to pay market commission or worry about losing escrowed funds.
EDIT #3: I forgot to mention. . . so long as I understand "Bitcoin Armory" correctly (and it continues to be developed), I will be offering MULTI-SIG transactions. Most likely 2-of-2. You place your order, and as long as you are satisfied, you complete payment. If you are not satisfied, then I will give you your money back. I don't envision coming across any situations where the bitcoins are lost forever.
Please let me know if I am missing anything. I don't believe we need to place our trust in third parties. I also assume that eventually, repeat customers will choose to skip the extra hassle and simply pay directly. But the choice is theirs.
I will also write up a multi-sig tutorial and have it as a part of my personal webpage (hopefully hosted on Tor, ZeroNet and I2P).
Why would anyone take the risk for no gain?
Calling BS on this lol.
