    I hear you, @stevepep

    When we first joined this site, nearly every lab we used drew criticism. We moved to Freedom, and apart from some members here on Peptide Critic, the feedback has been very positive. We’re still a young company and still going through growing pains, but we stand behind the quality of what we ship.

    Every lab makes mistakes, and that includes Freedom and Vanguard. I noticed you were asking about Vanguard’s issues in another thread too. Hundreds of peptide companies use Freedom, which suggests they’re getting a lot right. Their customer service and response times have also been excellent, which hasn’t been our experience with Vanguard.

    That doesn’t mean we’ll stay with Freedom forever. If the data tells us to switch, we will. I am not trying to convince you guys of anything, just being honest with what we are doing and why, and all it is met with is harsh criticism, at the end of the day, every lab is only as good as the trust any individual researcher has in it, I will look into places like trustpoint, but Vanguard has made it horrible in every fashion to work with

    We have had only 4 tests every fail with Vanguard, we sent 2/4 of those items to freedom to compare, yet you guys also push aside the fact those results were also within 3% variance from lab to lab

    That being said, we are ALWAYS trying to improve, I will leave it at that on my end whether or not you want to believe that I respect your decision and opinion

    Or they are using Freedom, because they always get a high purity % (which again now we are finding out is not accurate) and you get back results quickly. Don't make the mistake thinking because so many use them, they are good and respectable. At the end of the day, its the consumer who chooses who is a leader and who isn't. And this community as well as others that @stevepep has mentioned in group buys, telegrams etc are steering away from Freedom as people are questioning their actual testing capability being accurate.

    Perhaps you are doing amazing sales and having nice growth, but I suspect if that was the case you wouldn't really be here. You are looking for more business, and this thread and community has told you what it takes to get it from us. Everyday because of sites like this, the consumer is becoming more educated and aware what we should expect and look for. If there was no competition out there you could get away with not even offering a COA, But again the market is saturated and providing testing and trackable COAs has become the bare minimum we all expect now. If it's repeat business you are looking for, then you know what you need to do.

      @denti Very valid statement, and I appreciate the honesty and proffessionalism and also understanding, I dont think it ever hurts to ask more people what they prefer and thats what this comes from

      I also understand you guys are very vanguard heavy in preference, which is also why I ask these things, because again there is alos a very LARGE part of the community that love freedom, through and through, so that's why I come on here and ask

        @mikebricker you can’t be this unaware you post on here more than me and that’s saying something. You want to point to one issue with a lab to make a point that’s fine. Do a search and see all the freedom issues. The one thing they do well is get you your 99pct results in a day or two. Nexaph literally called them out. Peter has called them out. Other labs have as well because they are worried they will screw up the market when someone gets hurt and that ruins it for everyone.

        ^^^ THIS SO MUCH.

        Is Vanguard perfect? Absolutely not. Is Freedom basically untrustworthy and trash at this point? Yeah, pretty much. So it's an easy choice.

        Studz came here because he wants our business. Those who post and those who just browse. Yeah it sucks for him it takes a month to get a COA and that's capital for him tied up in inventory that is just sitting there that is not being turned over. But this is the business he chose to get in, which again has little to no barriers to entry. So it's the price he must pay if he wants more business as the consumer becomes more educated daily because of sites like this. If he just wants one time business off people who don't know any better, then he should just go advertise on FB and TikTok. But eventually those consumers also become educated and end up in places like here.

        Nexaph has earned its reputation and Goliath position in this industry for a reason. It wasn't because they cut corners. Other high end retailers like Peptidology also earned their reputation even though their prices are sky high. It's because they also don't cut corners.

        @studzpeptides You don't lyophilize yourself. You are a reseller from the same places I can purchase from. Not sure what you expect from us. To give you a pass for using Freedom because Vanguard takes so long? There is nothing proprietary to your business that puts you in a position to get a pass from us, the consumer.

          @mikebricker https://testing.nexaph.com/TES1007182026-21

          Right on Nexaph website take a look at the two different mass/purity COA’s.

          And I am open to Krause they have two samples right now I am just waiting on them. I could care less about the lab name we just want accuracy in all phases and it’s not that hard

          @Stevepep Interesting. I’m assuming this isn’t an isolated incident, so there must be dozens like this?

                        The Reta 10 was an outside test from someone 60% purity is kinda crazy

                        The Re-test from Jano came back good

                          @MikeMiranda the whole thing is crazy. It appears they screwed up the sample and thought it was Reta 30 not 10.

                            @StudzPeptides
                            What I can’t deal with is a vendor who knows a lab is absolute garbage and then tries to defend it by saying other labs make mistakes like we don’t know this to be fact. You still want to go with at the very least a trustworthy lab and take your best shot at accurate results. Not the one who is consistently bad and now has the reputation for it but gives you your Pass Pass. It just tells you everything you need to know about that vendor IMO

                            Just don’t tell us studz wants to improve testing and then go with the lowest of the low. You can’t make that make sense. You are dealing with the educated consumer on here. It’s the wrong place. I bet most consumers have no clue that freedom is a joke they just don’t have the information so you can feast on them. Although it’s getting out there on multiple fronts so maybe not the best long term strategy
