unrelated but if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
is a cold pack standard or do you have to ask
minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number
what packaging have people had from GL Biochem
update from 26 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity
cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing
lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out

i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate
22:40ferrous_ash pinned a message
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part, ask me again in a month
KP has been consistent for me across 8 orders which is what i actually want
prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice
not by dm
quoted lead time was 6 days, real one was 25. is that typical
is KP the manufacturer or a reseller
the packaging from FGP was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact
*PeptideMeter not the other one
better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago
is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication
what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now
a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house
no sourcing requests by private message. not from members, not from suppliers, and we report anyone who tries
right so has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for JEEP
screenshot the invoice

unrelated but the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one
per mg including shipping
ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot
a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg
ask for a cold pack
three orders no issues
i have never had a problem i could not resolve with MKM, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it
price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything, i have it written down somewhere
slightly off topic but a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour
*Janoshik not the other one
support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation
thats the synthesis house
do the arithmetic
nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did
paperwork is worth it
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described
