what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now

RL

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

NA

support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation

LL

is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication

RL

cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing

if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it

per mg including shipping

quick one is it worth paying more for better paperwork

VB

Purity check: no report on file for lot A-2418. Nothing logged either way.

hi. lurked in the archive about three weeks, first time actually asking something

i have two quotes for the same compound and one is nearly half the other. red flag or am i overthinking it

half the price is usually half the mg or a different vial count. it is almost never a conspiracy

quote A: 10 vials x 5mg   = 240 all in
quote B: 10 vials x 10mg  = 430 all in
both said shipping included
WN

A: 240 / 50  = 4.80 per mg
B: 430 / 100 = 4.30 per mg
difference 0.50/mg = 50 across the whole order
NH

oh. so B is the cheaper one and i had it completely backwards

KF

you had it backwards in the way basically everyone does the first time. that is why we ask for numbers

SB

also check whether A quoted per vial or per order, half the confusion in here is that

KF

both fine to buy from. JEEP is the one people in here reorder from most, TFC is solid mid-tier and cheaper on some lines

SB

TFC took nine days to answer me once and then answered properly. JEEP answers same day, usually within a couple of hours

KF

that gap is worth money to some people and worth nothing to others. depends if you like waiting

KF

WuXi TIDES is excellent and priced like it. they are also not really set up for a ten vial order

their minimums have come down but you are still talking gram scale on a lot of catalogue items

WN

i asked wuxitides.net for a 500mg quote last year and the reply was polite and basically said talk to us when you need ten times that

KF

correct. that is the single most useful thing you will learn this month

FA

and the usual reminder — nobody here tells you what to take or how much. we compare suppliers and paperwork, that is the channel

KF

lead times while you are here: JEEP quoted me 2 days to dispatch, TFC quoted 5 to 7 and hit 6
