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

ask who makes it

screenshot the invoice
slightly off topic but does anyone ask who makes it and get a straight answer

they slipped
[edited]sorry to jump in a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house
paperwork is worth it

anyone compared ERP and GL Biochem on the same compound
has anyone worked out the actual per mg cost including shipping for QSC
they improved
✅1
per mg including shipping
is_this_foreveri have never had a problem i could not resolve with BCH, which is a low bar and a lot…
the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one
reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying
ask for a cold pack
who are people using for retatrutide at the moment
weigh the vials
💀6✅3
a 10mg vial at 38 in a pack of five, plus 25 shipping, is 215 for 50mg. thats 4.30 per mg
i would order from SWB again and i would still weigh the vials, as i would with anyone
quick one cheap per mg is not the same as good value. i have paid more twice and been glad both times
quoted lead time versus actual is the number i track. the gap is the informative part
a supplier who tells you something is out of stock rather than shipping late is doing you a favour
update on the earlier thing anyone found the price move on a repeat order without warning
how many suppliers do people actually keep on rotation
👀1📈1
coming back after 14 months, who has changed for the better
not by dm
😂5📈15🙏10
thats a reseller
update from 21 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity
GGPeps has been consistent for me across 3 orders which is what i actually want
option A: 5 x 10mg @ 38 + 25 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option B: 5 x 10mg @ 34 + 45 ship = 215 / 50mg = 4.30 per mg
option C: 10 x 10mg @ 32 + 25 ship = 345 / 100mg = 3.45 per mgright so is it worth paying more for better paperwork
prices move without announcement more often than people expect. screenshot your invoice, we shall see
