support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation
cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times
does anyone ask who makes it and get a straight answer
my first order from GGPeps was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved
while im here if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
quick one is it worth paying more for better paperwork
price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything
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 mg⚠️1📉1
is WWB the manufacturer or a reseller
coming back to this cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times, not advice obviously
coming back after 21 months, who has changed for the better
better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago
is a cold pack standard or do you have to ask

how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation
a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg
Purity check: no report on file for lot B-0329. Nothing logged either way.
the packaging from SGN was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact
not by dm

ask who makes it

per mg including shipping
Testing queue: 3 submissions open, 60 awaiting dispatch.

nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did
while im here quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part
for the archive cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing
prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice

what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now
do the arithmetic
does factory direct actually mean anything
reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
i have never had a problem i could not resolve with FGP, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it, for what its worth

three orders no issues
lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out, for what its worth
how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer
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 mgright so i would order from ERP again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone, someone check my working
is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication
while im here anyone found the price move on a repeat order without warning
what packaging have people had from ERP

TFC has been consistent for me across 5 orders which is what i actually want
i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem
