As I type, I fear I'll be lynched for saying this, but...

I'm finishing off a test batch of Mumtaz now, and for $1.99 for a 50g
box, it's not bad stuff. It was still a strong green when I got it,
and I keep it in the freezer. Maybe the place you bought it doesn't
keep fresh(er) stock?

Quite right, a lot of its effectiveness will depend on your mixture
and your methods. I can get a good mahogany stain from it using
Justine's recipe (see link below). I use tea tree oil in place of
euc, though, and let the paste cure overnight before I use it. I'm
eager to try some of the fresher stuff I can buy from forum folks and
compare.

Anyone willing to sell me 50g for $1.99? :)
