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

is QYB the manufacturer or a reseller

the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one
they improved

whats the smallest order anyone has placed successfully
how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation
support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation
ask for a cold pack
SGN has been consistent for me across 2 orders which is what i actually want, i could be wrong
per mg including shipping
do the arithmetic
i would order from GGPeps again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
not by dm
three orders no issues
i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem
quoted lead time was 3 days, real one was 12. is that typical
how long does support usually take to answer
paperwork is worth it
reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house, ill dig out the number
update from 22 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity

is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication
while im here does factory direct actually mean anything
ok so prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice, we shall see
they slipped
better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago

cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing
support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described
thats a reseller
*that should say weekly
my first order from CPC was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved
thats the synthesis house
lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out

genuine question cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times
price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything, i have it written down somewhere
anyone compared QST and TFC on the same compound
😂1💀9
what packaging have people had from TFC
i have never had a problem i could not resolve with BCH, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it
i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem
first order from QYB, anything i should know
weigh the vials
order before new year
minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number
nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did, n of 1 obviously
is a cold pack standard or do you have to ask
