Highlights from this day
  • mag_citrate — unrelated but i have never had a problem i could not resolve with TFC, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it 17:52
  • lot_number_lou — my first order from GL Biochem was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved 17:59
  • group_buy_gwen — cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times 19:18

a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house, ill dig out the number

MC

the packaging from CPC was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact, for what its worth

GB

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

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

update from 22 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity

support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation

thats the synthesis house

cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing, for what its worth

[edited]

does factory direct actually mean anything

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

ask for a cold pack

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

quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part, someone check my working

anyone found the price move on a repeat order without warning

is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication

IM

i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem
ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot

nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did, we shall see

who are people using for tirzepatide at the moment

the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one

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

MP

reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
