[Discussion] the PeptideMeter advice in here is 6 years out of date

Discussion Cold Box ×9 Slow Clap ×2

Something I noticed reading old threads that I have not seen said out loud.

The advice on VendorInvestigate in this community changed substantially around the start of last year, and nobody went back and updated the older posts. So depending on which thread the search engine hands you, you get two contradictory answers with the same confidence.

I have listed what I think the current consensus is below. Correct me — that is the point of posting it.

Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.

Retitled to remove editorialising. Put the evidence in the body.

Retitled to remove editorialising.

Adding to this: reship is doing more work than the comment implies.

Dead space in the needle hub holds a small but non-trivial volume. On low-volume draws that can be several units.

SSA order #10, Poland, no drama, receipts inside

The Janoshik and Medutest numbers on the same vial from SGN came back 96.8% and 96.2%. Both are right, inter-lab variance is real.

Did you test the vial you received or are we going off the vendor COA?

Batch number? Date? Method? Give us the load-bearing fields.

HJ three times. First two perfect, third arrived with a gel pack failure. Powder tested 98.7% anyway, so no harm done.

Went through three vendors to find one that actually ships on-time and tests clean. The answer was SWB.

Yeah, JEEP took 8 days and the material was flawless. Both of those things are true.

positive and negative reports both need the same evidence standard

This order history matches mine almost exactly. Same vendor, same timeframe, same result.

Batch number?

Disagree on that part. 99.2% and 99.3% on the same vial is normal.

Is that a Janoshik result or are you quoting the vendor COA?

Ordered from MKM, got the vial, tested it myself via VendorInvestigate, and it held the claim. Order fulfilled.

How many orders from SSA is that a sample of? One reship is noise, five is a pattern.

This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.

No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.

About c/vendorvetting

The community due-diligence desk. Vendor experiences, independent third-party test results, shipping and reship records, and the boring paperwork that separates a supplier from a story. Every substantive claim is expected to carry a receipt: an order id, a dated screenshot, or a test report from Janoshik, Medutest, PeptideMeter or VendorInvestigate.
