weigh the vials
i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate
whats the smallest order anyone has placed successfully

i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem, we shall see
ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot, i could be wrong
minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number
support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation
i would order from GL Biochem again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
paperwork is worth it
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part, thats one data point
the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one
prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
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 mgOn this day 3 years ago this channel logged 98 messages.
quoted lead time was 6 days, real one was 15. is that typical
a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg, thats just me
how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation
thats the synthesis house
cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times

no sourcing requests by private message. not from members, not from suppliers, and we report anyone who tries
order before new year
do the arithmetic
*PeptideMeter not the other one
the packaging from TFC was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact, someone check my working
better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago
coming back to this how long does support usually take to answer
ask for a cold pack
screenshot the invoice
not by dm
my first order from CPC was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved, from memory
nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did
