Is the quality of product worth the effort? I still hear people say QSC is their favorite despite all the hoops to jump through. Or maybe it's just the type of people who love the chase? :sneaky:
 
Ordering from QSC can be a lot like playing Red Light, Green Light on Squid Game….there’s no forgiveness for error.
QSC will either change or die. The peptide industry, even in China, is moving rapidly to higher quality and greater ecommerce capability. QSC will compete on both or lose its market.

Yes, there are now many competitors with the same good prices and quality, if not better, and they will not ask you to eat shit from Amazon if there will be a problem.
We just have to watch them all closely and push them to improve, for some it works (GYC, SRY) and for some not yet (QSC).
 
Update: It turns out I did get the account number correct on my Wise transfers to QSC for their T30 sale at the beginning of September. My only error was choosing "checking" instead of "savings."

The money hasn’t been deposited into QSC’s account, so it’s not like anyone is ripping me off. But it’s also looking like I won’t be getting that money back.

I have called Wise at least six times over the past couple of weeks, each time hoping to catch someone who might see a new way to help. And they all say it needs to be QSC who lets their bank know about the error, so that the bank can either deposit the transfers or send them back to Wise and I can pay again, correctly.

(There are two transfers because the first invoice QSC sent was lower than it should have been. Canadians pay an extra 20% to ensure seized packages are re-sent. QSC sent me an e-mail letting me know that I would need to pay more if I wanted that insurance)

I have talked to QSC’s bank many times as well. They say it must be QSC who notifies them that the wire I sent contains an error, so that the bank can either deposit the flawed transfers or send them back to Wise.

I have sent MANY e-mails to QSC, and they say the bank will automatically send the money back. And around and around it goes.

Both Wise and Citibank say the ball is in QSC's court. Apparently all it would take is a phone call, and the bank employee assured me that if there is a language barrier, they have staff that could speak Mandarin or Cantonese.

The bank send the money back automatically when the wise transfers are unsuccessful.

I blame the banking system. In today's world the transaction should be doable within seconds with all kinds of checkback and confirmations.

I want to place an order with QSC right now but BoA charges $45 for an international wire transfer in US dollars. Kinda kills the good deal. Can we do it in Chinese money? That would be free for me. Can QSC do a domestic wire transfer in USD. That would be free for me.

We need some sort of tutorial on how to pay by different methods. The Alibaba trade assurance is awesome. Why can't everyone get on board with that?

I do not have the knowledge to create such tutorial. I used the WISE app. It takes a bit to get set up the first time. I connected it to my checking account. Fees were minimal and if you enter all the information CORRECTLY (sometimes they forget to mention select SAVINGS not CHECKING for target account) it worked quickly. I'd rather not do cypto if I don't have to.

Yes they can do domestic wire.. I've done more than one... though BofA will charge for that too ($30).. so that's really not a good option IMHO.. you can do it much cheaper through Wise (should come to less than $2 in fees in total). Domestic wire only makes sense if your account does not charge a fee for that service.. and unfortunately BofA does even for their "VIP" customers..

Probably the best option is to do the USDC transfer (on Solana) via Coinbase exchange and Coinbase Wallet (note those are two different things). There are practically no fees for that..

I kinda think it's time for us to sit down and write all this up :) I am tempted...but always short on time and motivation isnt' great.. though I hate to see folks struggle..

This is just my experience from buying and sending crypto once. There are some tutorials online for how to pay with crypto BTW! I used crypto to pay QSC and it was only semi-complex. Sort of easy. Really there were 2 steps, and a third that is recommended which I didn't do. 1) buy crypto. I used Coinbase to buy it and put it in their wallet. 2) send crypto to QSC's crypto wallet account that they give you. QSC will want a hash number which says your money was transferred. With Coinbase it sends a bunch of small transactions in a bunch so I had to do some googling to learn about how crypto transactions look, then found it. But it was pretty straightforward.

I had about $10 in fees I think from transferring and buying the crypto. But it was surprisingly easy. I'd rather do this than a wire transfer. I don't know what a wire transfer is and it scares me. 👀

The third step that I skipped and some recommend is NOT using Coinbase's crypto wallet to send to QSC because it can get banned or something after transferring to QSC but that didn't happen to me. So maybe one transfer to a separate wallet after buying crypto with Coinbase. There are a few online but probably some scam bitcoin wallets also so be careful with that.
 
All this drama and it was all your error? I think you should update the title.

And apologize to everyone.
Can I update the title . How is that done ? I would like to Update and let this thread end . There were still communication issues but I will carry my own bag .. Tracey was not to blame . Just miscommunication (not with Tracey )

You can pay in RMB, using bank transfer, Alipay application, or wechat if you are familiar with payment in RMB.

Go to the top of your post in the upper right corner. Choose the three dots and then from the drop-down "edit thread."

I recommend using crypto to pay your orders, it's the easiest, fastest, with less to no fees.
I just don't want to fuck with it. I'd rather pay a fee to wire you the funds.

I can wire domestic for free.

And maybe we should be more skeptical of someone who registers here, and their first post is to cry like a 2-year-old about a vender. People complaining about the vender not telling them to wait for a better deal. There are some whiney bitches on here

You should always transfer via a self custodial wallet when paying they/black market stuff.

It isn’t very likely, but you could indeed get banned
 
I’ve done orders with wire transfer and crypto and crypto is honestly the best way. Things can get messy if promos sell out while they are waiting for your bank transfer or you might run into situations like this one. Crypto was super easy and I had tracking the next day.
