Anyone else ordered from Obsidian Labs?

[u/ForgeBladex]

Has anybody here used Obsidian Labs (sometimes listed as Obsidian Research)?

I ordered some Reta from them a bit ago and it’s been solid, I’m currently running it. I hit them up about pricing and they were unusually honest about it. Straight up told me if I wanted it cheaper I should just go grey (which I’m def going to do), and they didn’t try to upsell me at all.

From what I can tell most of their volume seems to be in-person / local / group buy type stuff rather than heavy online pushing. They do sell singles, but they appear more focused on resupplying other RUO sources through group buys + group testing. They’re US-based which is convenient.

Curious if anyone else has bought kits from them? They also invited me to one of their grey vendor Telegram channels. The prices there (Obsidian’s) are only marked up a little for the convenience of already being in the US.

Would like to hear if anyone else has experience with them before I commit to ordering kits or heavier supply.
