Highlights from this day
  • tail_factor — my first order from MKM was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved, still working it out 17:33
  • ten_of_ten — i have never had a problem i could not resolve with SSA, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it 17:54
  • first_and_last_four — unrelated but prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice 18:12
  • first_and_last_four — i would order from FGP again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone 18:19
  • ten_of_ten — better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago, we shall see 18:55

my first order from MKM was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved, still working it out

PM

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

a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house, thats one data point

nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did
update from 11 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity

TF

if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it

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

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

ST

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

TO

how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer

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

TO

better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago, we shall see

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

💀2🎉2

GGPeps has been consistent for me across 6 orders which is what i actually want

i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem

anyone compared ERP and GL Biochem on the same compound
