#vendor-verification 2025-01-26

somebody once offered to fund the testing programme in exchange for an entry. the offer is in the log

thin evidence

if you want to help, buy a lot, test it, and post the report with the lot number. that is the whole contribution

what does not count: the supplier certificate alone, a screenshot, a referral link, or a friend who says it was fine

if the evidence is thin the entry says the evidence is thin. that is more useful than a score

not a recommendation

thats evidence

update from 12 months ago: WWB added evidence and the entry now reflects it, not advice obviously

a supplier improving shows in the log as later entries, not as earlier entries being edited

who decides, the mods or the room

how does a supplier get verification revoked

what counts: an independent report, on a lot you bought yourself, with the lot number, from a lab the room recognises, anyway

we have never revoked on a single result. we have revoked on a pattern

a referral link is disqualifying because it makes the reporter an interested party. that is all

revoked stays in the log
