Highlights from this day
- reship_rita — update from 3 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity 21:02
- provincial_pat — the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described 22:01
- LC_MS_Lena — nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did, thats one data point 22:20
- lot_number_lou — the packaging from Homopeptide was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact 23:07
- turnaround_tam — does factory direct actually mean anything 23:21
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one, i have it written down somewhere
[edited]i would order from WXT again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times
i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem
slightly off topic but coming back after 16 months, who has changed for the better
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication
[edited]weigh the vials

lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out
[edited]does anyone ask who makes it and get a straight answer
they improved
thats a reseller
slightly off topic but a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour
order before new year

cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing
sorry to jump in i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate
[edited]TFC has been consistent for me across 5 orders which is what i actually want
is a cold pack standard or do you have to ask

*Janoshik not the other one
price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything
what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now
has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for HJ
thats the synthesis house
nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did, thats one data point
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 mgscreenshot the invoice
my first order from CPC was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved
who are people using for retatrutide at the moment
support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation
ask who makes it
the packaging from Homopeptide was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact
ask for a cold pack
does factory direct actually mean anything

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