I think a lot of us were upset when Nootropics Depot suddenly shut down last year. Matt and everyone at the Parmatrix team provided great products and services, and were a huge asset to the community. They were the first Nootropics company to have their own in-house testing lab, and helped me out with all manner of things. I also became very good friends with Matt and the whole crew over there. So when the executive decision was made to shut the site down, it came as a surprise to me as well. When they came back a couple months later with a drastically reduced product list, it was never really the same. Nobody was more heartbroken and frustrated than Matt. The company he worked hard to build was shut off, and he had to step back from the community that he loved to be a part of.
Since the executive decision was made to steer the larger company away from Nootropics, and Matt's hands were tied with what he could do. It was only a matter of time before the site shut down completely. Seeing the inevitable ahead, a couple months ago Matt approached me about a possible solution to the problem. He could not resurrect the company that he built from scratch, but I could. His hands were tie…
What they were answering

How is it that Matt's hands were tied, but yours are not? Different regulatory frameworks in the USA? Where was ND based before?

Matt was not the owner, just the manager. His boss wanted to take the company in a different direction, and Matt had to follow. I do not have a boss, so I do what I want. Haha
They were based in Phoenix too; just on the other side of town. Their buildings are about 45 min from ours.
