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

does factory direct actually mean anything

VV

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

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

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

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

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

coming back to this i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate

RR

is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication

IM

nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did

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

FN

while im here prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice

GB

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

ST

unrelated but what packaging have people had from WWB

GB

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

🎉14🙏1

sorry to jump in lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out, still working it out

ST

update from 4 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity

weigh the vials

GB

sorry to jump in how long does support usually take to answer

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

GB

my first order from SSA was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved

10🙏2🎉3

cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times

💀10

unrelated but anyone found the price move on a repeat order without warning

not by dm

they improved

per mg including shipping

right so better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago

price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything

🔥113📈1

*Medutest not the other one

the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one

i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem

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

OO

a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour

🎉39

right so whats the minimum order like at KP

anyone had fill consistency problems with CPC

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