Highlights from this day
- surpass_two — nobody here gets paid to say anything about any supplier and the mods would end me if i did, ask me again in a month 12:06
- hydrate_hana — support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation, i think 14:08
- ferrous_ash — how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation 14:25
- hydrate_hana — slightly off topic but how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer 15:41
update from 10 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity
anyone compared WXT and WXT on the same compound
coming back after 1 months, who has changed for the better
cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times
a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg
paperwork is worth it
📉5⚠️2
anyone found the price move on a repeat order without warning

they improved
ok so lead times stretch badly around chinese new year. order early or wait it out
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part
[edited]a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour
[edited]not by dm
i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem
[edited]WWB has been consistent for me across 7 orders which is what i actually want, for what its worth
the packaging from SSA was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact
is a cold pack standard or do you have to ask
if three people give you three different suppliers, that is because all three work. pick one and test it
i would order from Homopeptide again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
quoted lead time was 4 days, real one was 5. is that typical
Digest for the week of 2025-08-14 has been published.
quick one the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one
thats a reseller

price per mg including shipping is the only comparison that means anything
support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation, i think

cold packs are not standard everywhere. ask explicitly and it usually costs nothing
three orders no issues
how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation
💀13🙏3
do the arithmetic
what packaging have people had from JEEP
📉2
minimum orders push people into buying more than they want, which is a real cost nobody puts in the per mg number
🤝3👍3
ask for a cold pack
the room does not rank suppliers on price. it ranks them on whether what arrives matches what was described
sorry to jump in i have never had a problem i could not resolve with QST, which is a low bar and a lot of suppliers fail it
has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for JEEP
first order from QYB, anything i should know
better paperwork is worth paying for and i did not think that two years ago
screenshot the invoice
thats the synthesis house
order before new year
slightly off topic but how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer

per mg including shipping
my first order from WWB 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
they slipped
*Medutest not the other one
Inter-lab diff for lot D-0718: 99.2% vs 98.6%. Within expected range.
for the archive prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice
how long does support usually take to answer
ask who actually makes it. about a third of suppliers answer honestly and that answer is worth a lot
no sourcing requests by private message. not from members, not from suppliers, and we report anyone who tries
thats the synthesis house
what does everyone consider a fair per mg price now
i asked for a non standard vial size and got it without a surcharge. that told me more than any certificate
order before new year
ask who makes it

is SGN the manufacturer or a reseller
weigh the vials
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour
[edited]does factory direct actually mean anything
