Finnrick Results Are In: My $186 Chinese Retatrutide Tested at 99.27% Purity (part2)

The moment I've been waiting for finally arrived. I was sitting down to eat a plate of eggs, taking a break from working from home, when I grabbed my phone and saw it: the Finnrick email I'd been checking for obsessively. ## The Results Moment I quickly followed the link in the email and was initially confused. I was expecting to see detailed results but only saw the 8.5/10 Finnrick score. Then it hit me: I needed to log in to see the early access results. **Boom. 99.27% pure and almost no overfill.** This stuff is exactly what they said it was. Which is good, because I had already taken a bit of a risk with my week 6 injection and reconstituted one of the vials from their batch. It mixed faster than the previous source I used, and I chose to take this risk because I didn't want to wait another month to go through another vial from my first order. ## The Numbers: High Quality Confirmed  **Overall Test Score: 8.5/10** - **Purity: 99.27%** (2.5/4 points - needed 99.5% for perfect score) - **Quantity: +0.7% overfill** (4.0/4 points - actually slightly over-dosed) - **Identifier: Batch matched** (2.0/2 points - perfect batch tracking) **What this means:** This is seriously high quality stuff. The only reason it didn't get a perfect purity score is because Finnrick's scale requires 99.5% for maximum points. At 99.27%, we're talking about a 0.23% difference from "perfect."

That carries enormous weight with me. In fact, they now have a higher score with me than the expensive US vendor I used for my first order. **This validates:** - The systematic research approach - Direct sourcing methodology - Third-party testing as essential - The YouTube detective work that led me to find sources using URLs - Cost vs quality analysis **The source and sales staff** that handle logistics, payments, and shipping seem top-tier. The fact that they accept PayPal is really convenient, and the product being 100% what they advertised without knowing it would be tested shows genuine quality control. ## I Placed Another Order Based on these results, I've already placed another order with the same source to cover my estimated usage for the next 2 years. I received a bit of a discount, making it even cheaper per mg. I also ordered an additional peptide that I'll talk about in a future post. **Why I'm confident ordering in bulk:** - Proven 99.27% purity - Accurate dosing (+0.7% is essentially perfect) - Reliable shipping and communication - Significant cost savings on larger orders - Established relationship with proven quality ## Does This Mean I'll Never Test Again? Not necessarily. I didn't have any surprises in the detailed results - it's better than I could have hoped for. But testing provides peace of mind and validates quality claims. I might do spot testing on future batches, especially if I notice any changes in mixing, effects, or physical appearance. **The beauty of Finnrick's free testing:** It makes ongoing quality verification accessible to individual users, not just commercial operations. I can't stress enough how valuable this free service is. Finnrick covered what would normally be a $200-400 lab test, provided professional-grade analysis through [Krause Analytical](https://www.krauselabs.com/), and delivered results in just over two weeks. This kind of transparency and community service is exactly what the research peptide space needs. Without services like Finnrick, individual users would be flying blind on quality. The fact that they make this accessible for free, while building a public database of supplier quality, is genuinely game-changing for the community. ## What This Means for the Community This testing proves that high-quality retatrutide is available at a fraction of the cost most people are paying. The systematic approach to sourcing using public testing databases, researching suppliers, and verifying quality actually works. **Key takeaways:** - Don't assume expensive equals better quality - Third-party testing is worth the effort - Direct sourcing can provide excellent quality products - Public testing databases (Janoshik, Finnrick) are invaluable resources - YouTube detective work using URL searches actually yields results ## Moving Forward with Confidence Having 99.27% pure retatrutide at $1.24 per mg instead of $18.75 per mg changes everything. This isn't just cost savings - it's validation of a systematic approach that others can follow. **What's next:** - Continuing current protocol with confidence in quality - Expanding to additional compounds from the same verified source - Documenting results and methodology for community benefit - Potentially testing future batches to maintain quality assurance The expensive mistake of my first order taught me everything I needed to know about this market. The systematic research, testing, and verification process has paid off beyond my expectations. 99.27% purity for $186. The numbers speak for themselves. --- **Up next:** Why I'm expanding my protocol beyond just retatrutide, and what additional compound I've ordered from this now-verified source. **Disclaimer:** The information provided on this site is for **educational and informational purposes only** and reflects my **personal experiences and opinions**.
