quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part, happy to be corrected

i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem, we shall see

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 mg

slightly off topic but does factory direct actually mean anything

minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number, i think

DD

ok so price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything

DD

ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot

PB

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

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

PB

the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one
price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything

follow up the packaging from CPC was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact

a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house

PB

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

how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation

FM

i have never had a problem i could not resolve with CPC, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it

Homopeptide has been consistent for me across 9 orders which is what i actually want, not advice obviously

first order from Homopeptide, anything i should know

👍5⚠️14

has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for HJ

lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out

KK

who are people using for semaglutide at the moment

unrelated but the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described

KK

reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying

cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times

prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice, i could be wrong

i would order from CPC again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
