reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying

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

update from 9 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity

unrelated but what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now

Digest for the week of 2024-10-11 has been published.

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

quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part

i would order from QST again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone

a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg

sorry to jump in how long does support usually take to answer

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

support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation

thats the synthesis house

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

lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out

price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it

no sourcing requests by private message. not from members, not from suppliers, and we report anyone who tries, your mileage will differ

first order from JEEP, anything i should know
SWB has been consistent for me across 3 orders which is what i actually want

better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago

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

they improved

anyone had fill consistency problems with WXT

sorry to jump in i have never had a problem i could not resolve with HJ, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it
