  • two_lifts_a_week — i have never had a problem i could not resolve with TFC, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it 22:13
  • retention_time — better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago, for what its worth 22:26

SS

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

SS

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

how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation

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

the packaging from MKM 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

Verification log updated: SSA — evidence added, status unchanged.

three orders no issues

update from 11 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity

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

RT

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

whats the minimum order like at QYB

is a cold pack standard or do you have to ask

is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication

SV

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

the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described, someone check my working

TT

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

TT

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