G'day everyone.

T.Bird here, writing from the Sunny Coast in Australia.

Roughly 1.5 years back, I began the Peptide run because of my busted knee.

These days the wife and I are both heading down the rabbit hole.

Suppliers located in Auzzy land charge Soooooo much. Over in Australia, scams outnumber genuine honest sellers, and sorting through the garbage takes effort and time.

For a little while I have been storking this forum, so I figured it was time to get involved properly.
 
T.Bird, welcome aboard — fingers crossed that knee of yours is on the mend. You'll find loads of knowledge floating around in this place. I'd drafted a whole paragraph to send, nothing major really, but the automatic censor flagged it for some reason I couldn't pin down. So instead, I'll just leave it at: best of luck.
 
My knee is doing great — with the Pep's plus strength work, it's never been in better shape.

A bit more about me: there's a post over in Reta about Lipoids. I used to be unhealthy, and I turned my whole world 🌎 upside down; these days I'm fit and strong. I got here the very hard way, which included switching to a new career.

Admin, I realize that as a new member I can't post. By the way, I love your rules — they filter out the crap.

Admin, please take a look at what's below.

I've got experience and a comment for whoever posted in the Reta thread about Lipoids. Back when I was a former fatty, Lipoids were a major problem for me.

With Reta and the triggers it activates, some people are going to need fasting, which activates Autophagy. That matters because it lets you recycle yourself from the inside out. For those people (and I'm one of them), Sugar — Frutose included — is your biggest enemy.

We're all different and react differently. If you're in the group above, I'd suggest looking into/researching, while on Reta, especially when losing weight: fasting cycles and staying completely away from anything sugar, processed weat based/ white, that activates your insulin.

Happy to discuss further.

Cheers

I want to express my gratitude to this forum and everyone behind it. The amount of information here is fantastic. I've put in my first order, got a tracking number, and Australia Post has both recognised it and is tracking the parcel.

I've read quite a bit about paying with crypto. Personally, I don't operate in that space, and for now I won't be doing so anytime soon. From Australia, my method of payment was my Wise international account. Wise sends money over to Alipay, which is what all Chinese people use. These 2 systems are linked. Wise requires the name and number tied to the Alipay account; it checks that it's genuine and then lets you send money in Chinese Yuan. The transfer itself went through within minutes.

So for anyone out there who doesn't use crypto, here's an option

Cheers

Okay mate, give me a hand here. Just want to make sure — is a Wise account the only thing I have to get set up? Or did you also go and make an Alipay? I stay away from crypto completely.

Right, no crypto and you don't need an Alipay account either. Wise is what I mostly use when travelling internationally — it's extremely good and instant. Wise and Alipay are connected and work together.

I placed and finished an order with JKL, Popo. It came to a bit over $700USD. Popo gave me the total in Chinese Yuan. She passed on the Alipay account name and number. Inside your Wise account you add a Chinese Yuan currency, then you can send the money to that Alipay account. Wise even runs an account verification so you can confirm the account is genuine.

My order has now cleared Customs through Sydney Australia and is on its way to Queensland. The Austpost app tells me it should arrive tomorrow or Monday.

I'll put up a post once the goods actually turn up.

Any thoughts on how that worked out for you?
For my 2nd order from a different vendor, paying via Wise to Alipay worked out fine.

Dispatch happened right away, the package entered AU via Sydney, and it reached my QLD address Yesterday.

In a couple of days I'm flying back from WA, keen to kick off my new pin protocols with my experimental Kangaroo 🤣
