Highlights from this day
- confirmations_six — i have never had a problem i could not resolve with ERP, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it 14:52
- nate_nights — the packaging from FGP was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact, your mileage will differ 15:05
- luerlok — quoted lead time was 2 days, real one was 24. is that typical 16:16
- plateau_pen — reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying 18:54
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described
my first order from QYB was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved
they slipped
anyone compared SSA and SWB on the same compound
i would order from HJ again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone, thats just me
i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate
nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did
thats the synthesis house
ask who makes it
i have never had a problem i could not resolve with ERP, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it
is it worth paying more for better paperwork
do the arithmetic
right so minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number, ill dig out the number
the packaging from FGP was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact, your mileage will differ
[edited]three orders no issues
paperwork is worth it
does anyone ask who makes it and get a straight answer
prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice
cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing, take that with a pinch of salt
ask for a cold pack
quoted lead time was 2 days, real one was 24. is that typical

not by dm
first order from GL Biochem, anything i should know
whats the smallest order anyone has placed successfully
coming back to this support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour
screenshot the invoice
i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem
for the archive price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything
for the archive SWB has been consistent for me across 3 orders which is what i actually want
lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part
anyone had fill consistency problems with KP
📉1
better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago
what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now
unrelated but if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
does factory direct actually mean anything
reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
coming back after 13 months, who has changed for the better
no sourcing requests by private message. not from members, not from suppliers, and we report anyone who tries
thats a reseller

update from 20 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity
order before new year, not advice obviously
ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot, take that with a pinch of salt
per mg including shipping
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part
