S1Research User Review: Not Impressed

@Eleanor I think OP means 1ml per 10mg standard recon rule. My guess.

That's not what the post above says though. I've ordered quite a lot from them over the past week/10 days. They do wrap in bubble wrap, and it's either a box within a box (less than 3 vials), or a plastic tub with product bubble wrapped inside, 3 vials or more.

It would be so helpful if reviews could be somehow by "verified purchases"

@Eleanor I think they meant they reconstituted the vial like they have with vials from previous vendors.

Yes, I know what that means.

Yes, it would.

@BeeKind Some forums make order number mandatory, but that just adds admin overhead verifying it with vendors. We can just stay vigilant about new-user posting patterns instead.

I've been here a few months and never posted a vendor review myself, just chimed in on Licensed and Certified Pep threads to confirm bad experiences. lol

So yeah, an account under 24 hours old dropping a bad review does raise eyebrows.

Same goes for good reviews. I'm not sure I could trust any them unless it's from someone I've seen active here for a while.

@Nuncles I think many people simply never go to this "Message Board". They just use the "Vendor Directory" page to check and leave the reviews.

pep_researcher

@vpeptides That's quite possible. I knew this price index for a while before I figured out that there is also a community forum — much more exciting and active one than just viewing vendors and available peps. lol

Eleanor

What might be a good practice for posters accounts have a mandatory waiting period here, maybe 7 days after account creation. Many large merchants won't let you post a review for a number of days after the item(s) have been delivered. Could be applied to sign-up on a site. Just a thought.

Nuncles

@vpeptides Very true. I've seen Randy say the same thing. And it's kind of my point. You don't really know who is posting the review. It could be someone from the company pumping up their own business, a company's competitor trying to dump on their competitor's reputation, joe blow who doesn't know a mg from a mL, and the list goes on. I personally would prefer to see reviews by vetted individuals. That's just me. I realize it may be better than none, but most of the Vendor Reviews I mark as "read" and move on.

I also placed an order with them and like you, did not experience the usual outcome. I took 5 mg. scaling up from 2.4 mg switching from real Zepbound and already experiencing lowered food noise, lowered hunger, slowed digestion.

I had a good order with S1 and will probably make another one, no complaints here.

@pep_researcher

I've never posted here but I unfortunately had the same experience as OP. I'm normally super sensitive and have had very little if any positives from it. My skin has been more sensitive to the site and no reduction in food noise, just kinda fluey feeling.

I didn't really care about the bubble wrap and the cheap tiny bulk Tupperware, it's clearly bought in bulk and then broken up resold with a hefty mark up. Which I don't entirely mind the mark up, it was less than most. It came really fast and was easy to order. But I think it must be mostly filler. Either they are getting a bad source and not testing frequently (which is most likely) or they are adding something and repackaging.

Will pull up my order info and post it. Is this the best place or in the reviews?

Yes, I would like to know what you ordered? I know I got NAD+buf 1000mg. Might want to let us know the date and % media on the COA.

I got an order from S1research today and I’m impressed with the batch and COA tracking ability on each bottle. have not tried product yet tho. They have been super reaponsive to follow on orders and ship quickly

@Eleanor sorry it took me so long. I'm doing this on mobile and it took me a minute to get the response. See screen shot above.

Like I said before, they were super fast, great tracking. I paid a pretty penny for it but don't really care when I can order something to try quickly. It was nice to see the QR code with COA but hard to know if it was accurate. I'm taking way more and not responding to it other than negative response at source of injection (irritating hard bump for more than 5 days when usually it's only 1, hospra BAC). Paying a premium for convenience and it not working or being cut with filler, is a bummer.

taryn

@Eleanor and here's the website link with the COAs. Eager to know what you think. A bad batch can happen I'm sure, so I'm not trying to flame them but hopefully isn't not what it seems, like a garage business vs. a legit reseller.

@trex I don't take Reta, never have. I don't see anything wrong with COA's but that doesn't mean anything. Sorry you felt you overpaid; I'm a continuous window(s)shopper. Maybe someone with Reta experience will come along and give you some better info. How many doses, how much and when?

BeeKind

@Trex the price is pretty standard for single vials. Cheaper doesn't always mean better. Look around here and read through people's comments on reviews, testing labs, COA's etc to gain more knowledge and understanding. My first buy I paid $135 for a 30mg reta - wiser now and plenty of resources available to shop around.

taryn

That's a good point. I honestly would have rather it have been more expensive and not wasted 2 months on it at that price. Fast shipping and weak or inaccurate product doesn't move the scales.
