So, it appears that the eBay seller is sourcing his CP from Fishman Chemical, which explains why I am getting poor results. This was confirmed by Humblefish in an exchange with the seller. Caveat emptor.
To be fair, the ebay seller is probably just as much a victim as those he is selling to. You would think you could buy from a large online retailer, and not have to worry about the purity of their medications. But there have been far too many issues with CP bought from Fishman Chemical for it just to be a coincidence, as this thread can attest. This deeply saddens me because it's something like this which can quickly derail the comeback of an otherwise very promising med. I urge everyone to research their source before buying, to be reasonably sure you are getting 99% pure CP.
Buying or getting a prescription from a vet is obviously your best option. But I understand not always feasible. Warning signs that you are not getting 99% CP include: directions to dose other than just once. CP is a "one & done" medication, so there's no need to keep adding more (unless the seller knows it's less than 99% pure). Also, expect to pay anywhere from $1-$2/gram for your CP. It ain't cheap. Anyplace selling it for $185 for 1,000 grams is way under market price, as that breaks down to only 18.5 CENTS per gram. Something is obviously very wrong with any CP for that price. :worried:
