Just thought I'd share since we have several new comers and will probably have more over the next few months with the T shortage supposedly no longer.

Invest in a label maker!! They're $20-30ish dollars on amazon! I have This Label Maker from Amazon, Nimbot D11. Simple and easy to use.

Why? Cap and top colors! You'll eventually order 2-3 items from a supplier or a few kits in a group buy and may end up multiple deliveries with the similar cap colors . When that product arrives you may or may not be the person that opens the box. If you're not, someone else may throw packaging away with marking info. Hopefully, all the items you have bought are different colors and easily identifiable (another issue if they're not). Or you order multiple products from different sources and by coincidence they are all the same cap color! Then, since the kits are all over the place in your freezer you'll want a storage case to organize everything.

Here's an example: Due to fomo, I recently ordered several kits of T30 at different times and from different sources, but all within a few days of "Black Friday". They were all delivered within a couple of weeks of each other. Thankfully, I label everything as it comes in religiously (peptide and dose, date, supplier, promo/group buy, and qr code for the test. etc). When I send in for testing or participate in a group test I'll change the label to my own test and update with newest. Usually my orders are different peptides with different cap colors and I sort my cases accordingly. This group of orders was all green caps (thankfully the same peptide)!! So if a vial would have been put in a case or unpackaged without labeling who knows where it came from, the dosage or worse what pep was in it!

I was driven to post this when my last order was delivered today and I noticed how similar the top colors were for it and the two rows of greet tops I already had next to the yellow top peps.

You're a very kind and organized person, I love everything about this post and I think it's the golden standard that everyone should try to achieve!
 
So I just pulled to unlabeled vials out of the freezer, one has an orange top and the other a white top, can you tell me what they are?

Just kidding - I label EVERYTHING! (I love my niimbot)
 
Labels don't have to be perfect or fancy. They might just be "T60" or "MOTS5" or what have you. I feel like if you don't label (somehow: by labeler, by marker, by sticker, whatever) then this hobby isn't for you or your vendor happens to already label the kit well.
 
+1 for the Nimbot D11! I put the contents, quantity, date, supplier, and QR code to the COA on my labels. Is kind of fun and IMO critical for keeping track of what is what once you start buying multiple kits.
 
When I see bunches of vials like that I like to think of it like they could each be $500-$1000 of brand name meds
