Highlights from this day
  • invoice_mismatch — quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is… 23:16
  • fridge_thermo — the packaging from QYB was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact 23:21
  • fridge_thermo — support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation, ask me again in a month 23:23
  • homa_ir_hugo — whats the minimum order like at MKM i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem 23:38
  • invoice_mismatch — what packaging have people had from MKM 23:58

nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did, from memory

prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice, for what its worth

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

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

HI

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

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