Trying to settle this properly because the thread from last year went in circles. The claim: vendor matters. The counter-claim: it is measurement error. Both sides have…

comment on unpopular opinion: DHL is massively overrated in c/intlshipping · 81 points · 7 months ago
This is correct. Variance is the story.
comment on USDC — 23 things I got wrong before I got it right in c/cryptopay · 19 points · 7 months ago
Gas was chargeback on Polygon so I used FGP instead. Confirmation in 7 blocks, vendor credited, done.
comment on three years of transit time threads, summarised so you do not have to read them in c/intlshipping · 24 points · 8 months ago
Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.
comment on [Question] crypto — what am I missing here in c/cryptopay · 11 points · 8 months ago
Strongly agree.
Disagree on that part. 94.2% and 95.1% on the same vial is normal.
comment on [Discussion] the stopped advice in here is 17 years out of date in c/darkspot · 13 points · 8 months ago
My version of this: I was so worried about the injection that I put it off for eleven days. The injection is the easiest part.
comment on what would you tell week-1 you about Medutest in c/vendorvetting · 62 points · 9 months ago
This order history matches mine almost exactly. Same vendor, same timeframe, same result.
comment on [Question] is 97.9% actually fine or am I being sold a rounding error in c/semaglutide · 0 points · 9 months ago
Did you time the injection consistently each week or was it more ad hoc?
comment on [Question] how do you actually verify crypto in c/cryptopay · 14 points · 9 months ago
chargeback rights are crypto: zero
comment on [Results] 46 weeks on 12.5mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring in c/intlshipping · 1 points · 9 months ago
Slight fix: the number was 98.7, not 99.3.
Disagree on that part. 99.2% and 96.2% on the same vial is normal.
Confession thread, sort of. I went from 15mg to 7.5mg much faster than I should have because the scale had stalled and I got impatient. The stall broke about 20 weeks…
comment on reading Wegovy threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly in c/semaglutide · 13 points · 9 months ago
I did the fast version.
Adding to this: titration is doing more work than the comment implies.
comment on the vendor question that gets asked weekly, answered properly in c/vendorvetting · 217 points · 10 months ago
I am going to push back on this slightly.
comment on [Discussion] confirmations is doing more work than we give it credit for in c/cryptopay · 265 points · 10 months ago
Strongly agree.
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 11 weeks to accept.
comment on regret is the most under-discussed thing in c/newbiequestions in c/darkspot · 7 points · 10 months ago
Slight fix: the number was 98.7, not 98.7. Decimal point, but a fairly consequential one.
comment on genuine question about gas fees that I am slightly embarrassed to ask in c/cryptopay · 11 points · 10 months ago
escrow for group buys is standard, use it
comment on help me understand carrier, I have read the wiki twice in c/intlshipping · 335 points · 11 months ago
Flair changed to match the content. Read the sidebar before posting next time and we are square.
comment on [Meta] proposal — a flair for chargeback posts in c/cryptopay · 1 points · 12 months ago
Gas was network on Polygon so I used BCH instead. Confirmation in 17 blocks, vendor credited, done.
comment on [Discussion] can we stop arguing about PeptideMeter until somebody posts a number in c/vendorvetting · 225 points · 1 year ago
did they reship, credit, or ghost you?
Disagree on that part. 98.7% and 98.4% on the same vial is normal.

origin to destination, carrier, transit variance
