prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice
better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago

how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer
whats the smallest order anyone has placed successfully
✅3🎉3❤️1
the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one, ymmv
follow up how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation
price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything

they improved

lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out
update from 19 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity
quick one is a cold pack standard or do you have to ask
does anyone ask who makes it and get a straight answer
whats the minimum order like at QYB
i would order from QYB again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate
i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem, thats one data point
ask who makes it

order before new year
is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication
i have never had a problem i could not resolve with FGP, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
do the arithmetic
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 mgFGP has been consistent for me across 8 orders which is what i actually want
weigh the vials
slightly off topic but minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number, take that with a pinch of salt
nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour, ask me again in a month
three orders no issues
a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg
paperwork is worth it
for the archive anyone compared BCH and KP on the same compound
cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing
cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times, i think
is QSC the manufacturer or a reseller

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

thats a reseller
sorry to jump in the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part, n of 1 obviously
reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
anyone found the price move on a repeat order without warning
the packaging from WXT was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact
what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now
not by dm
