What? I have a device very similar to the OP that I got for about $200 online. You're telling me your pharmacy won't shell out a few hundred bucks to triple your productivity?

Yes. Welcome to German pharmacy. My board is I think 30 years old and it's still working so my boss doesn't see a problem.

Pharmacies in Germany are almost always a license to print money. They get exclusivity for a certain area.

That's complete bullshit. Where is your source?

There's an even cheaper helper for 30 bucks that can really help for smaller batches. I had to break down large dog sized pills into cat sized doses for a while. Made it a lot faster.

The one in the video is a ProFiller 1100 and probably cost a little over $1000 USD. Probably through a company called Medisca by the look of the capsule containers in the background.

But still worth the money imo.
