Need advice on Quing Le Peptides

[byefatlicia]

I guess I'm a little more forgiving of the labeling, because it's clear that these peptides get shipped unlabeled for a number of reasons - chief among them to reduce import and customs difficulties, and for sheer volume. In the supply chain from lab manufacturer to wholesaler to rep or independent seller, I have to assume the individual kits never get a label until shortly before the final end/retail sale (and per-vial labels seem to cost 10x markup...). As long as it tests accurate to content, fill/dosage, and expected purity, pretty much all else slides right on by in these parts.

If you had a facility full of vials of white powder that all look the same, do you think it would be a good idea to wait to label them until shortly before the final retail sale?
I don't think this is the case.

I don't think this is the case.

To be clear, if I had a receiving facility full of sealed cases with lot numbers and shipping/tracking numbers that I can check separately against a manifest electronically sent by the manufacturer, and if we're really diligent I get the cap color per batch and visually spot-check a sample from a few cases-->boxes-->kits-->vials in each shipment... and then pull a vial from each case (maybe 1:600-1000) and send it to a lab for testing? And by doing this I have a minuscule error rate and save possibly two orders of magnitude cost versus demanding retail-level labeling? I think that's absolutely the case, no pun intended.

I've worked in at-scale logistics, and the end unit label on something the size of a 3ml vial isn't authoritative if it even exists until very late in production, because effective quality control has to happen much earlier and at a vastly larger scale in order to be effective and practicable. Throw in the hurdle of semi-hostile import/export processes, and there's a large incentive to delay or dispense with as much labeling as possible. That means missing or sloppy labeling is happening at the distributor level not the manufacturer; a lesser problem in my mind, as long as the item is correct.

Would I prefer better information as an end-unit consumer? Yeah, I'm with you there. But my very first grey order for one T60 kit from a retail site cost $1050 (ugh), and the most recent from a US vendor here was $260.... and the going rate from CN-shipped is $200. With the 75%-80% savings, I send a few vials out for testing to assuage my brain, and bought my own label printer to assuage my nerves.

TL;DR: It's all cool, but as the old guy said: trust but verify.
