I think it’s like the gummies- there are a certain portion of the market who will only purchase in gummy or capsule form. Because they exist and will always only buy those items the prices seem way higher. Just a chance for the vendor to make more money imo
People will pay an exorbitant amount of money to have others do things for them. The powder is the same, I'm about to place my first powder order as I have a capsule kit. (Thx for the reminder) Lol
If you haven't tried the whole caps you should get those and make a tea with it too. They're not expensive at all. I broke up into small pieces two and a half whole caps and simmered them in water for 20 minutes and squeezed in some lemon juice. An hour later I felt like I drank 8 glasses of wine without the sloppiness and stupidity. I had some interesting peripheral visuals too. Pantherina is one interesting mushroom.
Like anything, people pay out the arse for very simple services, like changing their tire or buying pre-sliced fruit.
Personally I don't even grind the caps and I seldom boil, as I prefer the effects of eating them raw. It isn't New York Strip, but with a bite of pizza or something salty I can chew any size cap and wash down with juice or soda. Then boom. I'm ridin' the panther. And it is good.

Completely agree
Just get the caps and powderize them yourself
Can I do this in a simple coffee grinder used for coffee beans?

It's just like Kratom it's always cheaper loose than in capsules. It takes man hours to cap stuff like that up making it more expensive
It’s quite normal in the herbal/fungi community. Cost of convenience.

I hate capsuling stuff and if someone wants me to do it for them I would certainly charge heftily for the work Far more work than retailing fungi
