Highlights from this day
- point_two_five — i have never had a problem i could not resolve with SWB, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it 08:04
- baseline_drift — who are people using for semaglutide at the moment 09:44
- dublin_dose — follow up is it worth paying more for better paperwork 11:29
- triple_ag_tom — cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that… 14:49
- triple_ag_tom — the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one, your mileage will differ 15:11

unrelated but update from 16 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity
cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing

they improved
reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for MKM
i have never had a problem i could not resolve with SWB, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it
sorry to jump in lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out
ok so better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago, still working it out
price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything
anyone had fill consistency problems with JEEP
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
thats the synthesis house
not by dm
coming back to this a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house
support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation
ask who makes it
[edited]who are people using for semaglutide at the moment
how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation
quoted lead time was 7 days, real one was 12. is that typical
i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate
sorry to jump in whats the smallest order anyone has placed successfully
anyone compared QSC and Homopeptide on the same compound
follow up is it worth paying more for better paperwork

ask for a cold pack
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour
do the arithmetic
per mg including shipping
first order from MKM, anything i should know
order before new year
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described, take that with a pinch of salt
weigh the vials
HJ has been consistent for me across 2 orders which is what i actually want
ok so is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication
no sourcing requests by private message. not from members, not from suppliers, and we report anyone who tries
cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times

option A: 5 x 10mg @ 38 + 25 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option B: 5 x 10mg @ 34 + 45 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option C: 10 x 10mg @ 32 + 25 ship = 345 / 100mg = 3.45 per mgthe same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one, your mileage will differ

sorry to jump in minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number
genuine question quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part
weigh the vials, still working it out
