ApoB is the more informative number and it is cheap.

This is where I part company with the consensus forming above. Import rules are jurisdiction-specific and this board keeps giving US-shaped answers to non-US questions. What is a personal-import allowance in one country is a controlled-import offence in another.

One order arrived in nine days, one was held at the border for a fortnight, and one came back with a seizure notice.

My experience ordering cross-border ordering internationally: I've ordered from a UK pharmacy. Customs can be hit or miss.

Shipping time: 7-14 days
Customs clearance: smooth, no issues
Quality: Janoshik tested at 98.6% purity

International ordering adds complexity but can save 60-80% compared to US prices. Research your country's import laws first.

Coming at RetaRick_CA’s question from a different direction. Take it one variable at a time. Almost every unanswerable question in these threads is unanswerable because three things changed in the same fortnight, and no amount of subsequent argument can untangle them after the fact.

Correct me if the detail matters more than I have assumed.

Following on from PharmD_Rodriguez — and this may be the naive question:

Whether an unchanged LDL-C alongside a large triglyceride fall is a good result or a bad one, because ApoB and LDL-C seem to be telling different stories?

OP back with an update, since a thread like this is useless without one.

Late follow-up. I did not do what was suggested, I did something adjacent, and it worked; posting the difference in case it matters to somebody.
