Highlights from this day
- reship_rita — a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour 19:53
- VialBot — New independent result logged — JEEP, lot G-0641, purity 99.2% (Medutest). 20:59
- thirty_min_wait — cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times 21:13
is MKM the manufacturer or a reseller

quick one a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house
how long does support usually take to answer
[edited]right so a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg
cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing, take that with a pinch of salt
thats the synthesis house

price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything
does anyone ask who makes it and get a straight answer
i would order from SSA again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
weigh the vials

anyone found the price move on a repeat order without warning
paperwork is worth it
support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part

per mg including shipping
reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
the packaging from QST was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact
quick one whats the smallest order anyone has placed successfully
thats a reseller

ok so i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate
