i operate a health food store in san antonio.   do they have pricing for
resale?

i did not notice any of their  topical products but noted a mention of them
being 10 ppm.


i directed my manager to order some of silver lightnin product.  i hope she
gets som colloidal silver books too.

thanks again,
