*Medutest not the other one
coming back after 12 months, who has changed for the better

thats a reseller
weigh the vials
three orders no issues
i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate
cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times
reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described
a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg, thats just me
they slipped
paperwork is worth it
i have never had a problem i could not resolve with CPC, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it, happy to be corrected
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
order before new year
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part, i think
what packaging have people had from SSA
anyone found the price move on a repeat order without warning
🔥11🧊10🙏15
my first order from QYB was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved
quick one no sourcing requests by private message. not from members, not from suppliers, and we report anyone who tries
is a cold pack standard or do you have to ask
screenshot the invoice
😂18👀1
ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot
a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house, n of 1 obviously
does anyone ask who makes it and get a straight answer
ask who makes it
how long does support usually take to answer

whats the minimum order like at QST
i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem
🙏1😂4
they improved
the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one

thats the synthesis house
is QST the manufacturer or a reseller
not by dm
has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for GL Biochem
how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation
price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything, i have it written down somewhere
👍2
anyone compared MKM and CPC on the same compound
lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out
i would order from GGPeps again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone

first order from QYB, anything i should know

per mg including shipping
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour
do the arithmetic
paperwork is worth it, from memory
Assay note: CPC lot A-2601 reported at 99.2% of label content.
anyone had fill consistency problems with KP
💀1❤️1👍12
quoted lead time was 6 days, real one was 26. is that typical
thats the synthesis house
what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now
😂4
do the arithmetic
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
lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out
ERP has been consistent for me across 2 orders which is what i actually want
the packaging from GL Biochem was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact
support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation
*PeptideMeter not the other one
update from 15 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity
nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did
better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago
whats the smallest order anyone has placed successfully
thats the synthesis house, i have it written down somewhere
my first order from HJ was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved
three orders no issues
