i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate, not advice obviously

update from 17 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity

cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times

anyone had fill consistency problems with GL Biochem

they improved

the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one
cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing

minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number

ask for a cold pack

better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago

LO

anyone found the price move on a repeat order without warning

is it worth paying more for better paperwork

is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication

GL Biochem has been consistent for me across 5 orders which is what i actually want

unrelated but i would order from QST again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone, someone check my working

i have never had a problem i could not resolve with SWB, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it

follow up cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing

LO

reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
