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

LN

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

coming back after 21 months, who has changed for the better

update from 16 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity

WWB has been consistent for me across 5 orders which is what i actually want

LM

quoted lead time was 7 days, real one was 17. is that typical
the packaging from WWB was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact

a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour

DV

who are people using for tirzepatide at the moment

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

support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation, ill dig out the number
a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg

order before new year

does factory direct actually mean anything

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

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

i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem

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

BV

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

first order from HJ, anything i should know

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

VB

Reminder for van_isle_vial: dose day is today. Set 4 days ago.

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

😂2⚠️2

three orders no issues

FD

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

BV

for the archive my first order from SSA was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved

is it worth paying more for better paperwork

DV

nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did

VL

the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one

😂18👀9🙏1

is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication

LM

prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice, your mileage will differ

RR

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

not by dm

what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now

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

cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing

thats the synthesis house

RR

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

my first order from TFC was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved

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

paperwork is worth it

RR

better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago
