Thread: How do we get the ball rolling on testing sponsors items?

Ya I know some people do it but how often do we see that pretty much never so if everybody can donate we can test 5 products at a time from different sources or pick 5 products from 1 source. I've seen alot of differnce sources donate themselves which should happen if they want to see there products tested as well. Without them there is no us and without us there is no them. Mind you this takes alot of time and I suggest testings 5 products from 5 different sources cause say you go down the list of sponsors it will take a year to get to the last one you know what I mean. Guys are busy on weekends so I'm sure this is going to happen to be honest it should happen we all want to know what we are putting in our bodies and gotta make sure the product matches the label and the sources will find out if there raws are on point. Its win win for everybody. Think about it its fuckin awesome that we have access to testing it wasnt like this years ago where it was pretty much impossible to get something tested and now it's at our finger tips.

I agree with everything here. I personally wouldn’t test something unless I suspected it was sketchy.
Once this gets off the ground I would gladly chip in cash and or gear. I think it’s best to have customers send in the gear. Looks cleaner. A lot of us have gear in our stashes from quite a few different sponsors.

What he said. And if a couple mods could be involved it would be better

If sponsors want to test their gear, they are free to contact me any time and have their whole line tested. That alone gives some assurance to their customers.

After that it's very easy to check up whether the samples sent to be tested by the sponsors were exactly the same as those sold to the customers should a random sample out of already tested line be analyzed again by a customer.

At least that's the way I see it.
