How to Verify if a Vendor is Legit? Here's a quick checklist to filter out trash vendors: 1. Third-Party Lab Tests (COAs) Legit vendors share recent, independent third-party testing (HPLC/LC-MS) for every batch. No COA? Sketchy! Watch out for fake COAs—check test dates, real lab names, and batch-specific IDs. 2. Community Reputation Check forums like Reddit, peds.chat, and AM. Look for consistent user reports, not just shills promoting new vendors. Search vendor name + “log” or “review.” If nobody’s talking about them, that’s a red flag. Too much hype with no bloodwork? Fake reviews or self-promotion. 3. Bloodwork Logs Vendors claiming high purity should provide user logs showing T suppression (for SARMs) or relevant biomarkers (like IGF-1 for peptides). No logs? No proof. 4. Website Red Flags Watch for: ◦ No contact info ◦ Generic images ◦ Wild claims (like “FDA approved” lol) ◦ Crazy cheap prices = likely a trash site or rebranded Chinese reseller. 5. Payment Methods Crypto or Zelle only? That could be fine, but if it’s combined with no reputation or fake COAs, it’s sketchy. No refunds or customer service? GTFO.
