Highlights from this day
my first order from FGP was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved, from memory
😂7⚠️17
genuine question is GGPeps the manufacturer or a reseller
who are people using for cagrilintide at the moment
quoted lead time was 2 days, real one was 26. is that typical
three orders no issues
what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now
do the arithmetic
for the archive how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer
is it worth paying more for better paperwork
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
per mg including shipping
they slipped
thats the synthesis house
follow up i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate
minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number
while im here reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation
is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication
follow up quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part, take that with a pinch of salt

order before new year
😂9🔥10
a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house
i would order from WXT again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
while im here nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did
better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago
update on the earlier thing prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described

anyone had fill consistency problems with ERP
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour

support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation
*PeptideMeter not the other one
ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot
is a cold pack standard or do you have to ask
update on the earlier thing ERP has been consistent for me across 6 orders which is what i actually want
first order from WXT, anything i should know

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

follow up cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing
the packaging from MKM was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour
thats a reseller
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, someone check my working
Recon calculator: 15mg in 0.5ml = 4mg/ml.
