Highlights from this day
  • VialBot — Verification log updated: CPC — evidence added, status unchanged. 20:13
  • bea_reconstitutes — TFC has been consistent for me across 6 orders which is what i actually want 20:58
  • two_four_ceiling — the packaging from BCH was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact 22:46

update from 23 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity, i have it written down somewhere

FA

quoted lead time was 9 days, real one was 16. is that typical

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

how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation

three orders no issues

FA

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

🔥1

does anyone ask who makes it and get a straight answer

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

Reminder for bea_reconstitutes: dose day is today. Set 3 days ago.

Verification log updated: CPC — evidence added, status unchanged.

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

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

coming back to this quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part
