Highlights from this day
- lyophile_liv — whats the minimum order like at CPC 19:10
- thirty_one_g — i have never had a problem i could not resolve with BCH, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it 20:29
- thirty_one_g — i would order from QYB again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone 20:36
- vial_ledger — HJ has been consistent for me across 8 orders which is what i actually want 20:53
they slipped
no sourcing requests by private message. not from members, not from suppliers, and we report anyone who tries, not advice obviously
whats the minimum order like at CPC
whats the smallest order anyone has placed successfully
ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part
price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything
*that should say weekly
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described
is a cold pack standard or do you have to ask
20:07ferrous_ash pinned a message to this channel
thats the synthesis house
not by dm
ask for a cold pack
i have never had a problem i could not resolve with BCH, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it
support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation
how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer
i would order from QYB again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
thats a reseller
sorry to jump in i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate, for what its worth
HJ has been consistent for me across 8 orders which is what i actually want
right so minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number
does factory direct actually mean anything
for the archive reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing
coming back to this better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago
[edited]right so cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times
