RR

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

VB

New independent result logged — GGPeps, lot C-4402, purity 97.4% (Janoshik).

TT

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

TT

the packaging from QSC was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact, happy to be corrected

RR

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

minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number

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

SS

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

OO

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

OO

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

SS

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

TT

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