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

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

[edited]

*Janoshik not the other one

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

BB

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

BB

is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication

is it worth paying more for better paperwork

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

order before new year

CC

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

CC

SGN has been consistent for me across 3 orders which is what i actually want

BB

i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem, someone check my working
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part

RW

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

RW

prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice

update from 14 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity, thats one data point

VV

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