    @denti I understand and respect that, in the end what you guys want is what you guys will deal with, plain and simple, I just hope you can understand from our point of view at least a little bit, we have been waiting over 3 business days for added endotoxin results to the original COAs we paid for from vanguard, that right there in that of itself it very difficult on top of the 8 business days we waited for the initial results, like I mentioned we are doing everything in our power to send as many items off the vanguard as possible, I would also appreciate some general education on the incompetent/malicious testing results that have occurred at freedom as I am not aware of these things but have heard them mentioned again and again

    You’ll have to search this forum for that or maybe Randy or someone else can fill you in.

    Regarding on waiting for Endo testing. Why not a compromise of you put up the initial vanguard coa and start selling the pep with a notice that endotoxins report coming soon? With a guarantee that if it comes out bad you will refund the purchase for anyone who has already bought and received from you. I believe I’ve recently seen similar on Nexaph where they put up the Jano COA with the usual identity/mass/purity and said endo and heavy metal report for that batch was coming soon but we’re still selling it. You could do the same.

      @StudzPeptides You asked what this community wanted and we told you. We don't care if it takes 30 days for testing as long as it's from a reliable lab. Sterility testing should be 14 days unless you are cheaping out and only doing the PCR.

      There's plenty of information on why Freedom is not preferred if you do a little research in the forum here you'll see many complaints against them.

      @BeeKind Heard, thank you, I will go searching for sure, like I had also mentioned we are just splitting labs not moving forward with freedom, I understand and appreciate the outlook, we are sending as many things off to vanguard as possible

        @denti You're right we can 100% do that, its not so much the worry of endo coming back back or something of the sort, its the fact there is little to no communication as to what exactly is taking so long, and not fulfilling what they state they normally would with us supposed to have been receiving endotoxins along side the initial results

          @StudzPeptides they respond to emails within 24 hours I have found. There are taking longer to test that’s for sure

            @studzpeptides I agree with @stevepep @denti.

            Freedom being too popular and vendors flocking them actually raises questions, same as ILS or Kovera. Even grey vendors started flocking Kovera who traditionally always used Janoshik.

            If one lab takes time find an alternative that has not had issues reported repeatedly in the past. Pivoting to a "fast turnaround" lab is actually worse for customer trust.

            I raised this Freedom and ILS question on another Skool forum and a vendor argued "oh every lab has had problems sometimes". My response was — bring your receipts, when exactly and which lab and what was the problem, and how many times that repeated? Throwing this hand wavy statement is just dismissing the issue and creating distraction.

              @Stevepep Exactly. Vanguard is usually very quick in response. I didn't even order any testing but just wanted to know their pricing and process and I got a reply in 1 business day.

              A few other times I emailed them to cross verify a new vendor COA and again got a response in 1-2 business days.

                @pep_researcher Sounds good yall, I understand, and again we will be sending multiple samples off with better testing off to vanguard today or tomorrow, paying for expedited testing as well

                  So with vanguard I feel Studz pain. One thing thats not talked about is their typo/coa error rate. I know many vendors that have moved away from them because they input the wrong year or misspell the vendor then getting it amended takes as long as getting the tests.

                  They recently flubbed the tests for our truck reta testing. Luckily i had two sets of samples to get it done.

                  Freedom im not so sure about either.

                    I have witnessed Freedom botching dates too. I remember seeing a COA in Jan 2026 where vial submission date was Dec 2025 and result date was Jan 2025. Asked vendor and they said, it's a typo they just chose to not get fixed to save the delay.

                      Speaking of Typo's in the Tegridy GB the COA from vanguard originally had the Loretta formula had Elora @ 10MG an Reta @ 2MG
