[Vendor] JEEP six orders in, zero problems, and i am suspicious of my own luck
Six orders from JEEP over about fourteen months. Guangzhou to Manchester every time. Nothing has gone wrong. Not one thing.
Which is genuinely making me nervous, because I have read enough of this community to know that a clean run is a sample, not a property. So I am posting the record rather than the conclusion.
- Orders: 6. Quoted 7 days, actual 8/9/8/10/9/8.
- Cold box with actual thermal mass every time, not a foam envelope.
- Two independent tests, both mine: reta 10mg at 98.9% against a 99.0% claim, tirz 15mg at 98.8% against 98.5%.
- Email replies read like a template but the answers were correct.
Somebody talk me out of this.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Not going to talk you out of it. That claim-versus-measured agreement is the strongest signal available and yours is tight in both directions.
The thing I would say: agreement matters more than the absolute number. A vendor claiming 99.0 and delivering 98.9 is telling you something about their process. A vendor claiming 99.5 and delivering 98.6 is telling you something about their marketing department.
that framing is genuinely useful, thank you. i had been reading the numbers as "is it high" rather than "does the claim hold"
this is the whole point of the vendor test log columns. claimed, measured, delta. the delta predicts your next order. the absolute number predicts nothing.
i have read that table forty times and only just understood why it is laid out that way
then it is badly labelled and that is on us. saying so in c/meta.
six is more than most people have and still not enough to be a property. carry on being nervous, it is the correct amount of nervous.
Flair is correct, receipts are present, and this is exactly the shape a vendor post should take — record first, conclusion optional. Leaving it up with nothing changed.
For anyone new reading: the reason we ask for the numbers rather than the verdict is that verdicts do not aggregate and numbers do.
the one warning worth giving with this vendor specifically: popularity means clones. check the domain character by character before you order, there are at least two lookalikes logged in c/scamalerts.
bookmarked from the address bar after the first order specifically because of that thread. good shout though.
the clones are getting better too. one of them copied the entire product page and just swapped the checkout.

Parent removed itself. For the record it was a link, which is why nobody saw it — links to vendor domains are stripped in this community regardless of intent.
never had to test their reship policy because nothing has gone missing, which is either good logistics or good luck. edit: two people have messaged saying they have, and both got replacements without a thread. adding it to the log.
pricing is mid-range for what you get. not the cheapest, not close to the most expensive.
six orders and no problems means you are not testing enough. everyone has bad batches, you just have not caught yours.
he tested two of six and posted both. that is a higher testing rate than about 95% of this community manages. what would satisfy you exactly
fair. i was being reflexively cynical. withdrawn.
