Highlights from this day
  • bea_reconstitutes — anyone had fill consistency problems with FGP 00:46
  • vial_ledger — my first order from SGN was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved, i think 01:18
  • bea_reconstitutes — prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice 02:48
  • eight_mm — ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot 02:49

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

anyone found the price move on a repeat order without warning

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

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

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

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

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