Highlights from this day
  • red_flag_ruby — quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part, i think 19:39
  • red_flag_ruby — better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago 19:45
  • red_flag_ruby — if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it 19:51

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

TC

how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer

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

LM

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

BB

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

LM

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