Are you getting the new Avant product in stock soon?

I'm talking sesithin, HEAT, Leptigen Rebirth, etc.

Black Star Labs has them on their web site listed as expected to be in stock on 4/26/04, IIRC.

The new LeptiGen formulas should be ready to go as finals any time now -- they should have been done like 3 weeks ago, but our label people turned over some personel and have been worthless the last month or so.

Merely waiting on labels for SesaThin as well. Probably within 2 weeks on this.

H.E.A.T. is further off because importing things is just a bitch right now, plus our bottles were sold out from under us, so we are going to have to get them made custom, probably. Probably 4 weeks at least, on the final for this -- looking like we will probably release a 3rd beta run, because of the bottle issue.

If people only realized how hard stuff like that is.

most definitely

It is like a brilliant juggling act. There are so many factors that have to fall perfectly into place so that you can pre-release without too much of a delay, while not tying up all of your resources should something get delayed.

All it takes is one person in the chain dropping the ball, misestimating timeframe, or delaying (fda) for the whole schedule to fall apart.

Is Sesathin on its way to this store? I see that BSL said there Sesathin is held up at Fedex so I assume they will have it any day now, any status of it coming here?

Yeah...I'm really itching to get ahold of some of this stuff. Any idea on what the pricing is going to be for it?

Last I heard from Par Deus he repeated on another thread that HEAT is going on another beta run, and they had troubles with the bottles for it...so that's probably a ways off yet before it's here at BN.

Sesathin is still held up waiting on labels for the bottles. Hopefully this means it's only a few weeks out.

Guess the guys over at Avant have been having a bunch of trouble with their suppliers. You can order Sesathin & HEAT direct from Avant's site...just going to be a while longer before it's here at BN sad.gif I know it's just a rehash of what's stated above, but nothing's changed.

To update, they finally finished the labels on the new Leptigen formulas, and we should have them Monday, so barring the UPS truck going off of a bridge, these will be available to our retailers, starting Monday.

On SesaThin, we just found out yesterday that the bottles we were going to use, which was supposed to be to us next week, are not only out of stock, but perhaps not even made anymore. This was 10 days or so after we had ordered them and been assured they were in stock. I really do not think people can fathom the level of incompetence amongst suppliers in our industry -- I don't understand how 95% of them shit and wipe successfully, much less keep a business afloat.

So, it is totally up in the air until we find bottles (and, they are a weird size, for the capsules, plus we are trying to use blue).

With HEAT, we did indeed decide to do a third beta run, because we have to do custom bottles.

And, now we have added Phenogen to this logistical nightmare smile.gif

Keep us posted Par, I need to order soon and would like to add SesaThin, but I can't wait much longer. Some of the plastics industry conferences I've attended for work should be able to help you out with this issue.

Plenty of people in China are willing to give their left nut for that kind of business, and dirt cheap too.
