Highlights from this day
- month_six_me — FGP has been consistent for me across 2 orders which is what i actually want 17:49
- month_six_me — if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it 17:55
- lean_mass_lex — minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number 18:45
- tenpence — has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for KP 19:34
do the arithmetic
quoted lead time was 6 days, real one was 15. is that typical
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour
nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did
while im here i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem
minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number
slightly off topic but update from 20 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity
how long does support usually take to answer
ask for a cold pack

weigh the vials
has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for KP
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 mghow many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation
coming back after 10 months, who has changed for the better
reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
is it worth paying more for better paperwork
