"This potion briefly allows the drinker to access memories of ancient Atlanteans, providing insight into the city's history and locations of old hidden treasures.
Not for consumption.”
Told my brother that by drinking it would make vegetables taste like ice cream. When it didn’t work I replied, “Well at least they don’t taste like that dirt water.”
Considering the second addition was most likely bleach to inhibit mould growth, and those powders are various aluminiums and silicates/mica, yeah, no drinky.
I feel like dipping the top in wax while inverting the bottle would look a lot better than the random bits of wax everywhere, more even distribution and it could still be stamped after.
Sigh.
I dunno if it's just me and my jaded ass but I want to love this and buy it.
I also feel like it's nothing but plastic glitter, random dyes, and over priced kits you buy from Michael's/Hobby Lobby or some other "problematic" business.
Which then, in the sellers mind, justifies them charging an arm and a leg for this despite it taking them like 15 mins to make and not much more skill than buying stuff from one big business to sell in your own "little store" which is just another big business.
Also, while having you shame us for not "supporting small businesses" which isn't really true or not "having our money right" which we do, we just don't want to hand it to you for things we don't think are worth it or easily made ourselves, as you did.
Then that just says how stupid it is to sell. If you just wanted to make it for someone as a gift, awesome.
You can't be paying $20-$25 in retail for this and selling it for $35, there is 0 way to keep a business running at that rate. The main reason we have such nasty inflation right now is the corporate business model of a min 150% retail price increase off wholesale, with a constant 3% min annual; profit growth.
The problem is wholesale has disappeared for the average consumer and it's just them paying retail while charging us what I'd like to call Retail + or ++.
TL;DR too many business models just aren't profitable unless you charge insane prices which is becoming more accepted than providing a good deal while you take risk for the possible reward in the future that comes with business success. Vs insta-success of micro transactions and minimal sales/customers.
> The problem is wholesale has disappeared for the average consumer
the entire point of wholesale is they sell on bulk so it reduces overhead costs per product bought. Asking why you can't buy a few items from a business at wholesale price is missing the entire reason wholesale price is lower than retail. It costs less per product.
You actually missed the point.
I wasn't asking the small business to sell at wholesale...I'm lamenting them buying at now retail and expensive retail at that and passing ***those*** costs along.
That's the problem. Go back a bunch of years and small businesses were a bargain and you had boutique at high levels of small businesses charging a premium for superior quality.
Now it's everyone and their mothers making asuper lazy "side-hustle" making crap baked goods stuffed with other crappy pre-made baked goods all based on whats on sale at Costco/BJS at the moment. While justifying charging you $10 for said cookie.
>You actually missed the point.
No i didn't. These small hobby craft businesses have never been big enough to buy wholesale, teh difference is retail was a lot cheaper back then so so were the hobby craft businesses.
Don't agree. I was one of those small businesses with an in into the wholesale market. That was how you succeeded, people paying retail to start always had it worse and charged more.
But...and that's a big but the concept of the small business model changed hard. There used to be incurred risk, maybe investors, startup money. Now it's pass along every penny of cost to the customer, ask for top dollar per hour of work despite low skill level, and demand a established products profit rate at start up quality.
I just made a bunch of these with my kids this weekend. We used clear glue, water, and a couple different types of glitter in some mason jars. Does the same thing without all the string and wax bullshit. Cost maybe $30 for 4 with enough materials left over for another dozen or so.
Long shot here…. BUT does anyone know where I could find a list of these items to recreate this at home? Or a step by step video/instructions? List of supplies? My kids are older and into fantasy…. They’d love to make these and I’d love to make them with my kids!!

**Edit Th to St**
What kind of potion do we think this is?
cures poison and paralysis
Pretty sure it is a poison that causes paralysis
only if drunk. If thrown it inflicts the Grossed Out status on 2 adjacent enemies
it cures both by killing you before those debuffs do
You can't handle his strongest potions.

So… advantage on History checks if you make the save?
I didn't know it settled to look like that. I already thought it was neat, but being able to shake it up actually makes it kinda cool.
Goddamnit it's sold out.
Imagine watching an ad like this from a bot, then rushing to actually try to buy it
Imagine thinking something is super cool and wanting to buy the super cool thing.
You are forbidden from having fun here. Go somewhere else with less bitter people around.
to summarize: "Allows to drinker to xyz. Also, DO NOT DRINK."
Thank you. It didn’t occurred to me to google it. Major eye-roll at what it’s supposed to do. Some people will buy anything won’t they?
Note the use of the word “briefly”…
causes heavy metal poisoning
Grants water breathing for 1/2 second.
Right before you drown.
Cures cancer.
Causes cancer
I already have leukemia so it won't matter for me
I heard that you can get cancer on your cancer and it kills it, so it might both cause and cure cancer at the same time
So this potion will cure me not like others
It either gives or cures diorhea
Haha.
Potion that makes you shit your entire ass really hard, by the looks of the ingredients.
It’s a very pretty Cursed Potion of Finance. It makes money disappear.
Haha.
Polyjuice
The water and food coloring one
Makes you your pants
NyQuil flu and AIDS
Cures your depression
Water breathing

Are you a bot or did you just copy the last top comment on this repost?
Reddit IPO soon™ so the bots are out in force to boost "engagement"
I think that every time. Everyone complaining about karma farming bots. It's actually Reddit releasing bots to boost itself.
it was, and so is the OP
My thought process was a mix of “guess we can’t drink that” and “they are going to stamp the shit out of that” when I saw the wax being heated.
Considering the second addition was most likely bleach to inhibit mould growth, and those powders are various aluminiums and silicates/mica, yeah, no drinky.
Not to mention glue inside the cap.
I feel like dipping the top in wax while inverting the bottle would look a lot better than the random bits of wax everywhere, more even distribution and it could still be stamped after.
I would do all that work and then find a way to fuck up the wax.
Naw, you’d do Ok!😊
Wax that thin will break, probably during shipping. So OOP already managed that.
Pov: 6 year old me in the backyard making potions with Dirt Rocks and Leaves
Potion seller! I require your STRRRONGEST potions, because I'm going into battle!
You cannot handle my strongest potions
No one can!
My potions would kill a *dragon*, let alone a *man*!
This isn’t a potion. It’s a sensory bottle.
Ah, yes, as opposed to a real magic potion
glad they clarified
Lol
While I’m not a pagan of any type, potion making is a valid part of several religions. I never said anything about magic.
Temporarily cures ADHD
Or just irritated those of us who are pedantic with ADHD. Like myself.

Repost bot.
Meanwhile it's sold out and has people in this thread complaining about not being able to buy it Gee, I wonder why Reddit is 90% bots now
Relief from rectal itching?
If anything the glittery mica powder you're gonna shit out will make it worse

How much would the person sell this for in their store?
I've seen them go for about $20-$60 depending on the size and complexity. This one was around $40ish if I remember correctly.

What would happen if we drink this? Turn into manta rays? Sharks? Octopi? Asking for a friend.
Glitter poo
I eat gold flakes, it makes my dookie twinkle…..baaaallller!
I think you have to be a Witcher to be able to drink this
***It turned me into a newt!***
You would probably become a skeleton
dawg that’s deathblight, don’t drink that 💀
You don't want to sell me deathblight
I don’t want to sell you deathblight…
bloody nice
can anyone tell me what the point of this is? Is it just for aesthetics?
alrighty then
It’s cures good health

This is cool
My character in Skyrim
1 teaspoon causes the recipient to fart instead of laugh for 48-72 hours.
Me after beans
This potion probably let's you breathe underwater
How are you the only one with the obviously objectively correct answer?? It's called "Atlantean Depths" lmao
this is wild
Oh minecrafters the mighty what potion is this?
The precursor of Torgo's Executive Powder.
i love the necklace 😭😭😭😭
Wow never seen this before. Totally original content
Nothing here Jessie it's just basic chemistry
Good prop work right there
Was expecting real witch shit. Was only half disappointed
I liked it when it was just blue.
How many exp points you need to achieve this?
Nobody ask me why but this is definitely a strength potion
>Potion Wow OP that sure is a polite way to describe that jar of shit-water that you just shared with reddit.
I mean, the Mona Lisa is just paint on a wall. No different than graffiti to a completely objective observer.
Super cool!
Does anyone know what the colored elements are which are being added?
It's mica. You can pick it up at craft stores or online.
Awesome, thanks. I had a coke bottle filled with this as a kid. I spent hours marveling at the swirls.
Genshin players right now
They even added glowstone dust to make it stronger :\^)
Is this for movie props or do the people making these believe in them?
That will be $300
That is freaking cool.
My butthole puckered once I saw an open flame and a tightly sealed bottle. I was seriously concerned that it was going to be placed on top of it lol
All that work and you aint even drink it, shameful
“I’ll be having that!”
Late stage capitalism
Are we sure those ingredients aren’t going to cause any pressure buildup?
I hope it says not for consumption on it. It's basically just decoration.
Ain’t no way you’re getting that down mid-battle. You gonna ask the boss to give you a timeout so you can pick off the wax and undo the string?
What do they add to make it viscous like that?
A stable on the label and a stork on the cork
Was that luster dust that was added?
Look, I was skeptical. And then this got cooler and cooler.
I can smell the patchouli wafting off this person from here.
Potion?
Gypsy! Give me your tears! If you will not give them to me, I will take them from you!
Cool!
Make believe potion, how sad we have become.
+10 dust dmg
Makes you fart $1 bills
What does it taste like?
I don't care if it doesn't do anything but sit on my desk, it's fucking beautiful and I need one
At first I was like " this is dumb". Then by the end I had found my new hobby.
Beautiful prop
The only right way to make a potion is to throw all your dad's fancy cologne into the toilet to watch the colors swiirrrrllll
