Highlights from this day
  • first_and_last_four — WXT has been consistent for me across 2 orders which is what i actually want 22:32
  • batch_bandit — no sourcing requests by private message. not from members, not from suppliers, and we report anyone who tries 22:36
  • third_shift — price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything, thats just me 22:40
  • apnoea_down_two — i would order from QYB again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about… 22:46
  • apnoea_down_two — my first order from JEEP was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved, i have it written down somewhere 22:58

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

🤝2

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

TS

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

*Medutest not the other one

quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part

i would order from QYB again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation

RS

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

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
the packaging from QSC was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact

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

PP

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

paperwork is worth it

per mg including shipping

coming back to this ask who makes it

TS

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

🎉3

anyone found the price move on a repeat order without warning

update from 21 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity

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