Highlights from this day
- is_this_forever — update on the earlier thing a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house 19:06
- is_this_forever — no sourcing requests by private message. not from members, not from suppliers, and we report anyone who tries 19:17
- pooled_sample — while im here cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing 20:18
- ari_arrives — has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for QST 20:42
nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did, anyway
lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part

weigh the vials
does anyone ask who makes it and get a straight answer
prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice, from memory

if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it

my first order from WWB was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved
i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem, i think
coming back after 10 months, who has changed for the better
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described

reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour
genuine question i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate, ill dig out the number
whats the minimum order like at JEEP
cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times
three orders no issues

QSC has been consistent for me across 8 orders which is what i actually want
while im here cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing
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 mganyone had fill consistency problems with QYB
i would order from WXT again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone, someone check my working
has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for QST

price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything
ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot
update from 13 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity
ask for a cold pack
genuine question how long does support usually take to answer
do the arithmetic
the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one
i have never had a problem i could not resolve with CPC, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it
they slipped
*Medutest not the other one
a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg, ymmv
ok so the packaging from WWB was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact
the packaging from FGP was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact
what packaging have people had from GL Biochem
how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer
