Highlights from this day
- myrrh_measures — minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number, ymmv 15:12
- myrrh_measures — how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer 17:30
- pharmac_pen — a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour 17:36
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part, n of 1 obviously

ask for a cold pack

how long does support usually take to answer
quoted lead time was 2 days, real one was 23. is that typical
better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago
do the arithmetic
nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did
prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice
anyone compared SSA and SWB on the same compound
ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot, we shall see
slightly off topic but cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing
reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
does factory direct actually mean anything
ask who makes it

no sourcing requests by private message. not from members, not from suppliers, and we report anyone who tries, we shall see

they slipped
while im here i would order from JEEP again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
[edited]i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour

*Medutest not the other one
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 QST, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it
they improved

coming back after 25 months, who has changed for the better
