ask who makes it

slightly off topic but how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation

they slipped

update on the earlier thing whats the minimum order like at QSC

coming back after 18 months, who has changed for the better

not by dm

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

update from 6 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity

has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for HJ

quick one prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice

what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now

right so the packaging from Homopeptide was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact

sorry to jump in SSA has been consistent for me across 2 orders which is what i actually want

anyone had fill consistency problems with CPC

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

quick one does factory direct actually mean anything
better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago

anyone found the price move on a repeat order without warning

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

whats the smallest order anyone has placed successfully

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

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