Testing Vendor or Vendor + 3rd party?

[Lifeworthliving]

I have 6 mg of Reta reconstituted. I have the COA from a particular purple-boxed vendor. They have their Janoshik test report, which is all good. The group 3rd party testing is still pending.

Where does people's comfort level lie with this? If Janshik COA in hand, do folks proceed? Or do most wait for the third-party testing results as well?

Vendor-supplied test reports (calling them a "COA" is pretty meaningless since that only "certifies" that the vial(s) tested at that time had X results, nothing more; people seem to like the COA term because it sounds official and impressive) are only good for one thing: holding vendors to account for providing the product advertised when subsequent truly independent tests are performed.

A reputable vendor will stand behind their test results by guaranteeing that any independent tests showing lower mass/purity results outside an acceptable margin of error percentage will result in refund or replacement.

So no, making purchasing decisions based solely or primarily on vendor-provided test results should not bring anyone comfort.

Be careful with overfill. I assume you saw this today already:

Nexa overfill

Posting as an FYI only, as it tends to be mostly our newer users who would have these specific kits. If you have this batch, please be aware of the dose discrepancy and use with the possible 5mg variance between vials in mind. If you recon assuming 12mg and your batch is 17.4, and you plan to...

The 3rd party testing group, or better yet, the Flying Purple Pep Guild testing group, has the tests you should rely on.

Yeah, I contributed one of my vials to the third-party testing for this batch. I'm holding off on pinning this batch until we receive the test results. But I may assume everything is 17mg, and if I randomly have 13mg vials, if I'm a bit under, I'm a bit under.

If this were me, I’d decide how much of an overdose I was willing to inject and assume an amount where the 17 would give me that overdose. Say for example I am trying to inject 2.5 but I’m comfortable (or willing to accept) going to 2.875 (15% over), then I assume each vial contains 17/1.15=14.8.

Then if I get the 17 vial I’m still ok and if I have the 13 vial then I’m still getting 2.2mg.

There's also the option of dosing every 3.5 days, or 5 days, etc.

Is there a Telegram link to the Flying Purple Pep Guild? That is a new one for me. DM me if you don't mind.

I have three companies in mind for third-party testing, and was wondering if anyone had opinions on the following, or if anyone could offer another reputable company for testing.

• Forever Young Pharmacy
• Freedom Diagnostics
• Prime Analytical Laboratories

Until I get more experience with group testing, this seems to be the best option for me right now. Thanks in advance.

They all seem to be garbage. I know the first one has been mentioned in the forum before.

Thanks. Do you have any recommendations?

Just the most obvious one: Jano is the best as far as vendors accepting the results.

If you don't care about vendor acceptance, another one is Peptide Test.

Based on my research Analiza Białek in Poland is also really good, and slightly cheaper for single tests. That's who I plan to use.

SRY is sometimes using Chromate.

There’s little point to using any lab other Jano because vendors don’t accept anything else for reshipping or refunds.

If you’re just curious and don’t plan on asking for a reship or refund if the results are bad, Peptide Test.

@Calm Logic I don’t think FPPG wants the link publicly shared on this Google-able website.

Gone. I got the link by searching the forum.

Did you manage to find a group to split the costs of running a test?

Personally, I would wait for the independent results to come in. Below is a conversation I had last night with a seller who I contemplated doing business with. Needless to say, I did not purchase from him.

Your health is way too important to put into the hands of a stranger whose sole interest is in putting money in their wallet and not your well being.

It's impossible to remove all the risk, so everyone has to decide what their risk tolerance is. Even if you test 3 out of 100 vials, you still have no idea about what's in those other vials. For the one or two bad test results I've seen that become public, that company probably has a sizeable decrease in business. I think they are pretty clearly incentivized to deliver what they are saying. I tested several vials from one vendor myself, and they all came back exactly what they said they were. So I probably won't be doing every single batch going forward. But that's my personal decision based on my own risk tolerance.
