Questions from his humans

Has Jacobo tried these products yet?

Not yet. The six initial product pages are labeled “Chosen by his humans.” When there is real experience to share, we’ll say which product was used and what was observed.

Where does the purchase take place?

“View on Amazon” opens the store in a new tab. Orders, payment, shipping, and returns are handled there. The little shop has no cart and does not collect payment for orders.

Do I need to buy all six?

No. Start with what you really need and keep what already works. Jacobo has room for boxes, not pointless purchases.

Why aren’t prices shown?

Confirm the current price and terms at the destination store. Check the version, seller, shipping, and returns before paying.
