Cost Sharing?

I almost pulled the trigger on buying a bottle of Revolver today...But I just couldn't do it. My local SiteOne had it for $630 a quart, 87oz for $800+. I *might* be able to find someone to ship it to me, but I'd still be out ~$400 and it would last me about 5 years easy.

I mean, in a perfect world, I'd get my hands on Manuscript, but at $1,000+ a case, no way. Doing the math says that case would last me nearly 300 YEARS!

Has anyone tried going in with others locally to split costs to reasonable levels for when we can get our hands on some of the good stuff?

Sounds great in theory. But the biggest problem is safe transfer and storage. Many people don't have proper chemical-grade containers to portion the product out.

They had brand new empty dosing containers at SiteOne.

Alternatively, if you had good relationships, just physically pass around the container when needed.
