Where they actually differ

  • They bill on different clocks. GobyMeds charges every 12 weeks and MaxLife charges every calendar month. That alone changes what a “month” costs, which is the whole reason this index recomputes every price.
  • What they advertise is not what they bill. GobyMeds advertises $133 and bills $145.

How we know

Both figures were read on the seller’s own site and recomputed over a 30.4375-day calendar month from the charge and the billing period it covers. Neither is a seller’s own “/mo”. The full working for each — the charge, the period, the arithmetic and the date it was read — is on its own page: GobyMeds and MaxLife. The method is set out in how we verify.
