price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything

ask for a cold pack

FN

a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour

FN

a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg

DE

ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot

FN

unrelated but the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described

is WWB the manufacturer or a reseller

the packaging from SGN was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact, thats just me

VL

while im here lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out

is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication

they improved

DE

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

BR

option A: 5 x 10mg @ 38 + 25 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option B: 5 x 10mg @ 34 + 45 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option C: 10 x 10mg @ 32 + 25 ship = 345 / 100mg = 3.45 per mg

quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part

VB

Archive lookup: bea_reconstitutes first appears in this channel on 2024-01-01.

i would order from ERP again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone

they slipped

thats a reseller

has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for MKM

BR

first order from TFC, anything i should know

option A: 5 x 10mg @ 38 + 25 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option B: 5 x 10mg @ 34 + 45 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option C: 10 x 10mg @ 32 + 25 ship = 345 / 100mg = 3.45 per mg

i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate

FA

for the archive a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house
