To me, as in baseball, the best ability is availability.
Hope it works out for you.

(441 posts)They seem reputable but they no longer sell masks. They now offer links to 3rd-party sellers for products they have vetted.

(3,966 posts)We bought all of ours from them over the last few years. My wife is an ICU nurse and says they are better than what's available at our local hospital system. Better fit and more comfortable. I bought more for her a week ago. Fast shipping and inexpensive.

(19,526 posts)I bought enough for a good while, but I have nearly run out. That familiar sinking panicky feeling was very unpleasant and you and the other dealers have really resolved that. I am very thankful.

(95,895 posts)Is where I get my KN95 masks for a little over $1 a piece, individually wrapped. I usually get five or six and replace them after a month or three.
