Reta order taking forever?

[BurnPizza]

I ordered some reta online from a place that seemed pretty legit. They're saying it could be a month before it even ships. Does that sound right to anyone else?

 

[Jess1988]

That's not been my experience at all. Unless it was right at the start of a big holiday, or they were out of stock. If they had it and it wasn't a holiday, that's a red flag for me. I usually see shipping notices within a few business days. Time to get here is a separate issue, that can take a while.

I've done group buys where it took 5 or even 7 weeks, but it always showed up eventually. I don’t usually buy directly from the source.

I placed an order on Saturday, and it shipped last night. The label was actually created Sunday, but the US holiday on Monday slowed things down a bit.

The longest I've personally waited was about a week from China.

 

[StallsRUs]

My only order from overseas took about 12 days from ordering to my door. Though, for GLP-1s, there's one source that seems to get things here in only 3-4 days and has the best prices.

My longest order from CN took between 2 and 3 weeks, largely depending on customs delays. My usual vendors are on holiday until late February or early March, so there may be delays related to that.

I wish more of the things I need were available from that supplier.

My last package (coming into Switzerland) was quoted at 7-9 days and showed up on day 8 - so today! Overall, I'm really pleased with how fast they respond, how quickly I get a tracking number, and the delivery speed.

 

[Jess1988]

I'm located in the US. I ordered on Saturday, got a tracking number the same night, and they said it usually takes about 5 days but could take up to 2 weeks max. The tracking hasn’t updated yet, so I'll reach out again if it's not moving by the end of the week.

 

[Kelly02]

I made an order right before the new year in a "last chance before we stop shipping" kind of sale. It's been 18 days with no movement, and after I contacted them, I got more promises...

 

[Dog-Lady]

I'm in the US. I contacted a vendor directly, placed the order Sunday, got tracking Monday, and the package was here Wednesday.

 

[BurnPizza]

Thanks, all! I guess I'll give it the full month and then start asking questions if nothing happens. Just wanted to see if this was normal.

 

[sema-saved-me]

It's wild how many people are sourcing this stuff themselves now. I saw an article about people mixing their own Wegovy because of shortages. Seems risky! https://www.statnews.com/2023/01/18/risky-sources-wegovy-ozempic-obesity-drugs/

 

[Lab_Mouse_4421]

I saw someone mention a new peptide supplier advertised on YouTube... anyone tried them? They claim rigorous testing. Good prices, too.

I'm curious about the shelf life of NAD+ once it's mixed.

what’s the shelf life of NAD+ once reconstituted? Like what’s the longest u would use a reconstituted bottle for?

I've heard refrigeration helps a lot.

 

[Kelly02]

I agree, sema-saved-me, mixing your own stuff sounds scary! I'd rather wait, or pay a little more for something that's already prepared.

 

[D_Jen]

if you're grabbing from chinese vendors, no worse issues than normal. there's a whole thread comparing what you actually get versus 'real' stuff, plus shipping headaches if you're curious.

 

[recomp_era]

Do these need to happen permanently? What's the situation once stopping?

Crypto payment is standard for most overseas vendors. Good that it went through.
