Highlights from this day
  • dorm_fridge — great, three answers, very helpful 18:56
  • tarpit_tam — JEEP answers fast and ships small. GGPeps is a shade cheaper and slower to reply. GL Biochem is upstream of half the market and will not care about your 10 vial order 19:05
  • tarpit_tam — GL Biochem in Shanghai make peptide at scale for other people. some of what you buy elsewhere started life in a house like that 19:32
  • tarpit_tam — a reseller buys bulk, splits it, lyophilises into vials, labels it, sells you ten. that is a real service, it is just a different business 19:54

my first order from WXT was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved

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

RL

whats the smallest order anyone has placed successfully
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part

🎉1🙏14

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

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

MP

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

*that should say weekly

DF

tirz, 30mg vials, uk delivery, i do not want to spend forever emailing

CF

GL Biochem if you want the actual synthesis house and you can meet their order size

TT

they are not actually contradicting each other. they answered three different questions

JEEP answers fast and ships small. GGPeps is a shade cheaper and slower to reply. GL Biochem is upstream of half the market and will not care about your 10 vial order

TT

GL Biochem in Shanghai make peptide at scale for other people. some of what you buy elsewhere started life in a house like that

TT

a reseller buys bulk, splits it, lyophilises into vials, labels it, sells you ten. that is a real service, it is just a different business

CO

and a reseller is not a slur. somebody has to do the vialling and QC the fill

TT

yes. the tell is whether they can tell you a synthesis date and a lot, or only a lot

CO

JEEP. you said you do not want to spend forever emailing, that is the answer to that constraint

TW

i will defend GGPeps though. GYC has never once shorted me and their vials are consistent

QH

keeping this one open because the synthesis house vs reseller bit is worth having in the archive

roughly. TFC and GGPeps are the two i would call solid mid-tier. neither is the cheapest, neither has burned anyone in here

TT

TFC batch variance is real but small in my testing. GGPeps has been flat across everything i have run

TT

meaning the numbers barely move between lots. that is the thing you actually want from a supplier
