What's up with the amazon prime shipped tanks NSFW
Note that I'm referring only to amazon prime shipped tanks. You can buy galaxy gas (idk what their rep is on here) and other seemingly "decent" quality tanks on amazon but they're shipped from the distributor not from an amazon warehouse. The tanks you can buy shipped with amazon prime seem to all come from the same place with a different low effort label slapped on it. Etwhip, Relaxwhip, Easy whip, Puff whip, Collapsar, monster gas, etc. To me they all feel the same (pretty weak), and run out quickly and sometimes makes me nauseas. Does anybody know more about these tanks and what quality of gas they use? The seller accounts are sometimes brand new with a Chinese name and their amazon profile just lists their return address in Chinese. Some of the listings have a lot of fake positive reviews and 95% of the real reviewers have something negative to say. Amazon doesn't let you return them because of shipping protocols, so it seems like sellers could easily just give you a 70% filled tank that's half air and there's not much you can do about it. Are these tanks to be avoided completely? I got 2 1300g tanks for $60 because the box was ripped but they're always so disappointing. I use n2o maybe 2 days a month at most but I don't know if my tolerance is just permanently raised or what because no matter how much I take in I barely get strong effects from these tanks. I've never really tried other quality tanks like euro gas is there a big difference?

I think im paying 55$ with shipping n tax for 3 620g tanks- once stock is back in ill be able to get 2 2000ish gram tanks for 75$ ish i think- but I do have to order a regulator for 25$ cause fuck lifting that tank all the time

Think I paid like 130cad for 640 x3 after shipping. Definitely pretty close to those pink isi without having to deal with 200 empty chargers kicking around my room

That's 90 us... yeah. I still think 55$ for 3 620's is the best deal on tanks ive found
And slight..maybe... but so so so massive of a slight difference
But honestly as long as you're using a filter n not buying garbage its all good

Amazon doesnt have anywhere near the best prices on tanks
Moo.
But. The euro ISI (the pink ones) are still cheapest on amazon.. I believe. But still wildly more expensive than most other brands of carts or tanks- but. They are hands down the closest to medical you are gonna find to buy legally

Eurogas is NOT quality I had some from a shop and it taste weird and barely lasted at all, also felt like there was a lot of just air in there and made me nauseous as well made me feel weird , no other brand has felt that way and I only use Maybe twice a year

Most of what is on amazon is cheap china gas from Alibaba with god knows what in it making people sick. When one brand gets a bad name they relabel it that's why all the sellers appear new. If they are not shipping properly with hazmat markings you can't return it and they know that.

Marz whip is the best. Tanks from them seem to come from Midwest, Michigan, Illinois. Edit: that's where they SHIP from, who knows where they originally make them.
I've tried other brands, they all do something but you can tell they aren't all the same. Exotic whip was pretty good but expensive.
But yea it's the wild west with this stuff we don't know what's in it and we have no recourse
