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

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

coming back after 25 months, who has changed for the better

per mg including shipping

DV

lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out

SB

a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house, ymmv
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described

DV

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

VL

is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication

LN

if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it

VL

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

VL

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

GC

while im here i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem, n of 1 obviously

GC

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

paperwork is worth it

AA

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

*VendorInvestigate not the other one

AA

the packaging from JEEP was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact

GC

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

GC

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

AB

update from 26 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity

AB

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

WWB has been consistent for me across 7 orders which is what i actually want, still working it out

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

GC

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

GC

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

my first order from QST was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved
i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate

not by dm

AA

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

paperwork is worth it

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

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

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

reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying

LN

order before new year

coming back to this does factory direct actually mean anything

OO

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

is JEEP the manufacturer or a reseller

anyone had fill consistency problems with GGPeps
