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

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

AA

SGN has been consistent for me across 3 orders which is what i actually want, take that with a pinch of salt

TT

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

the packaging from WXT was the best i have had, double boxed with the tray intact
the same 50mg at 185 with free shipping is 3.70 per mg. cheaper, and i still ordered the first one

follow up how long does support usually take to answer

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 mg
PM

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

PM

they slipped

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

TT

coming back to this i keep three suppliers on rotation so a stock gap never becomes a problem

PM

is there a supplier anyone would recommend purely on communication

update from 6 months ago: switched suppliers on fill consistency, not on purity

TT

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

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 mg

support answering in two days is good. answering in nine is a data point about the whole operation, from memory

quoted lead time was 9 days, real one was 12. is that typical

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

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

WW

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

HH

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

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

🔥3🤝1
DE

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

a reseller relabelling a synthesis house is a different risk profile from the synthesis house

PP

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

TT

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

TT

sorry to jump in anyone compared HJ and SGN on the same compound

📈9

my first order from WXT was fine and my fourth was better. they have improved

DE

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

OO

how do you tell a synthesis house from somebody with a sticker printer

PP

reordering or trying somebody new, whats the argument for staying

HH

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

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