Batch #61 is in! We did run into supply line problems, and it was significantly delayed. Which is unfortunate because we were planning to go back to frequent small batches early this year, but shipping is still too unstable to make that work. We do have stock now though. At least ¾ of it’s in. The rest should be coming in over the next few days. The only strains we’re still missing are modern green, green jongkong, and premium green rusu. There’s more green ranah coming too. We also have a new addition to our lineup red rusu! It’s not a premium strain like the green rusu, but it’s still strong. It is a darker color red, but it’s not fermented.
There has been a modest price increase, $.75 on a 250. We know that’s not what anyone wants to hear. That’s the absolute minimum we can do though and still offer the same quality kratom. To be truthful it really needs to be more then that, but we’re trying $.75 and seeing how it goes. Besides the problems that are affecting all industries right now; the economy, supply chains, and inflation, over the course of 2021 we’ve been seeing massive amounts of low quality cheap kratom flooding the markets over here. We’re basically in the position of either doing what other vendors are doing and buying lower quality, cheaper kratom that’s available in large quantities or raising prices to make up for our higher costs and longer shipping times.
With that said we’ve been discussing getting in a second line of cheaper lower quality kratom. Because we’d be paying less, we could sell it for significantly less. If you’d be interested in an economy class, we’d love to hear from you. Like most kratom vendors most of our sales come from repeat customers. So, what you think matters! After doing this for 7 years we know cheaper always sells with kratom. With things as bad as they are and likely to continue that way it could work out good for everyone.
As the rest of batch #61 comes in we’re just going to list it on the product page. So, check back to see if we got something in you’re looking in stock.
Thanks,
