Highlights from this day
- per_mg_pete — i would order from SWB again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone 17:36
- VialBot — Recon calculator: 2mg in 2.5ml = 2mg/ml. 18:28
- batch_bandit — how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation 19:11
- void_volume — unrelated but is QST the manufacturer or a reseller 19:32
- void_volume — i have never had a problem i could not resolve with FGP, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it 20:06

first order from SWB, anything i should know

Recon calculator: 2mg in 2.5ml = 2mg/ml.

better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago
a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house
thats the synthesis house
a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg
how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation
🎉16🔥2
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described
cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times, ymmv
how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer
the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one
unrelated but is QST the manufacturer or a reseller
nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did
i have never had a problem i could not resolve with FGP, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it

whats the minimum order like at WXT
minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number
i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem, still working it out
ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot
does anyone ask who makes it and get a straight answer
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part, your mileage will differ
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
