Amazon supplies
-
For me, ADWdiabetes.com is markedly cheaper but I don't have Amazon Prime.
The only exception is vials; I will not use Amazon or other off color source.
@Eleanor where do you get vials then? I only know of either walmart or amazon for them. Thanks

I like medlabsupply.com
They have both Ultra Spec and ALK, which are both true sterile. Ultra Spec is generally cheaper; although neither is really 'cheap'. Look under Lab Supplies. -

This is a challenge for those of us who live in restricted states. ‘Official’ companies won’t ship to you unless you have a prescription for diabetes supplies. So in my case, I have to scour amazon looking for vendors who will ship to me.
Mind you, I can walk a block from my office and get free syringes to inject heroin or fentanyl, but I can’t buy syringes for any other purpose unless I have my doctor’s permission.
Yeah, well, I’m just here for the research, man. - The Dude
If I haven’t liked your post, no offense. I have exceeded my daily allowance.

@ResearchCat
Oh my, that must be very challenging. What State do you live in? -

@ResearchCat just have Amazon deliver to friend or family in a free state like Florida and then have them mail it to you.

The plan is to move to a free state. But yeah, if I get desperate, I can send it to a drop box across the border.
For now, I just keep 1,000 each pen needles and syringes in my preferred sizes.
-
@vpep 100% I have used a few brands and those are up there with the big brand diabetes needles.
-
I'd be curious if https://diamedstore.com/ would ship to restricted states. They don't mention anything about needing a prescription anywhere that I can see. I have purchased from them but live in a state that doesn't seem to give a shit.

You can buy from RUO supplies sites that sell BAC water, vials etc. They are more expensive but if you are in states like NY NJ that's the only option. I lived in NY for 5 yrs unaware of this and wasn't into RUO research. But now in the future I would never move there. What a pain.
I'm not sure if sites like Carewell strictly check state laws. Someone mentioned Diamed store too. Try ordering and see.

@Eleanor I second this. I haven't found any reputable vendors for vials on Amazon. I use Farris Labs for those.
Everything else is ready to find and there are good quality options. I like the Gluco-care syringes and pen tips.
I have found pen cartridges that were from a reputable source on there also. Just no true Clean Room prepared vials with COAs.

No issue in NY buying right from Amazon. No restrictions.

Surprisingly, no issues in Illinois. I think that the only state worse than Illinois has to be California.

This just got delivered last week

Just for the record, I was not trying to fear-monger. Most states do not have restrictions on buying syringes, needles, etc. MA is one of a very small number of states that has to control almost anything you do, and they aggressively pursue vendors who don’t comply. In the case of ‘diabetes supplies’, this translates into many major vendors not shipping to you without you providing ‘proof’ you are authorized to buy the items. Yes, it’s that f*d up.
In amazon world, that means that a lot of stuff won’t get shipped to me, but I can find some things, and it is entirely a matter of who the vendor is.
Ironically, because statism rarely makes sense, I can buy all the large format luer lock syringes, needles, and other stuff; it is only the insulin syringes and pen needles that are largely restricted. I also can’t buy pocket knives, slingshots, and other random things.
(Yes, I have to get out of here. Soon.)
