ND NMN 100g - $149.99
R\\\*e NMN 100g - $89.05 (if i mention the seller's full name the post is auto-deleted)
That's a huge price difference.
Is that pricing correct?

><he who shall not be named> takes pride in pioneering industry-leading quality testing standards. All of their products are independently triple-lab tested for raw materials and strength and purity of the finished product. Batch and lot numbers are included for verification and we include this information on the bottle.
The 3-step quality certification includes:
Acceptance testing – This ensures the raw ingredients are free from heavy metals, impurities, microbials and has > 99% purity.
Product assurance testing – After production is complete, then random bottles are sent to a third-party laboratory for product assurance testing that verifies the finished product contains the quantities specified on the label.

FYI: That's testing Chromadex ran at the behest of NOW Foods. They constantly test our products in those rounds as well, but they don't release the results. We have contacts at the labs that gave us inside info. They said our ND products are always submitted to them with all the other samples they get, and we always pass, but they never see the results posted publicly. Kind of shady, but I guess their goal is to call out the bad actors, not promote their competitors. Still, pretty dumb that they pay to submit our products every time they do a round of testing like this in the hopes we fail, but we never do, so it all just gets swept under the rug. The people at the labs they pay to do the testing think it is kind of whack, so that's why they told us about it. LOL
This is what I mean when I say we have to be so far above board with our shit, it's insane. With how vocal I have been calling out everyone in this industry for 11 years now, everyone tries to find something wrong with our stuff to call us out. Hell, I get death threats and my house SWATed. Don't you think if they could hold up lab results of one of our products failing, they would scream it from the mountain tops? They'd all love to rub it in if they found something of ours that failed. I do find it funny they keep trying, though. Like I get it. I have been more vocally critical of everyone in this scam industry than anyone, and sometimes I rub people the wrong way. I get why they don't want to release our passing results every time they do a round. Still, I am honest when I test their shit. If it passes, it passes. If people are doing the proper lab testing and quality control, great! I am not those people's enemy. We all share a common enemy in the industry. I have enough problems with my real enemies than making ones of the people trying to do things right. Hopefully they will start seeing that with the nonprofit I am funding.
Anyway, we have not looked at NMN pricing in a while. It got weird for a bit because of all the BS with it. However, I will look at the numbers with the team and see if we can adjust pricing now that the supply chain issues have calmed down.
