thats the synthesis house

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

TL

genuine question i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem, for what its worth

TL

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

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

ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot, ask me again in a month
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour

price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described

a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg, we shall see

ask who makes it

i would order from QYB again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone

ok so no sourcing requests by private message. not from members, not from suppliers, and we report anyone who tries, not advice obviously

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

what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now

is it worth paying more for better paperwork

screenshot the invoice
