- font_forensics — is WXT the manufacturer or a reseller 22:23
- noct.titrate — is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication 22:44
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
quick one better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago
ask for a cold pack

they improved
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour
i would order from GL Biochem again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for FGP
who are people using for semaglutide at the moment
🔥2
whats the smallest order anyone has placed successfully
[edited]💀7
cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times
coming back after 6 months, who has changed for the better
update from 21 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity, ask me again in a month
nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did
update on the earlier thing the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one
weigh the vials
i have never had a problem i could not resolve with GL Biochem, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it
lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out
a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg
*that should say weekly
while im here my first order from QSC was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved
prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice
quoted lead time was 3 days, real one was 5. is that typical
ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot, i think
whats the minimum order like at ERP
per mg including shipping
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described
is it worth paying more for better paperwork
i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate
Digest for the week of 2024-05-30 has been published.
cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing
right so how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer

sorry to jump in anyone had fill consistency problems with FGP
while im here price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything
SGN has been consistent for me across 5 orders which is what i actually want
paperwork is worth it
is WXT the manufacturer or a reseller

what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now
the packaging from WWB was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact
i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem
🤝3
minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number, from memory
thats the synthesis house
what packaging have people had from QST
ask who makes it
is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication
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 mgscreenshot the invoice
do the arithmetic
Reminder set. I will post here in 4 days.
anyone compared JEEP and GL Biochem on the same compound
a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house, i have it written down somewhere
three orders no issues
