Left up. It has a hash, a chain and a timeline, which is what a payment report needs.

the group-buy version of this loses everybody's money at once, which is why no escrow means no group buy.
comment on [Failure] lost £340 to a group buy. posting so somebody else does not. in c/darkspot · 378 points · 3 days ago
The partial-delivery detail is the important one and I have not seen it written up this clearly before.
Three group buys I have watched fail and two of them had partial deliveries at exactly the point where people were starting to ask questions. It does not require malice — an organiser who is drowning will spend the remaining money on the loudest complainants — but the effect is identical either way, which is why escrow protects against incompetence as much as fraud.
comment on [Pattern] the nine scams. that is it. there are only nine. in c/scamalerts · 121 points · 3 days ago
three that i have watched go wrong. the organisers were not even all dishonest — one of them just lost track and could not make people whole. escrow protects against incompetence as much as fraud.
comment on [PSA] the "send it again and we will refund the first" message is always a scam in c/scamalerts · 121 points · 6 days ago
the group-buy version of this is worse because the organiser has everyone's money and a plausible story about a payment failing.
comment on [Seizure] third one in two years. the pattern is the carrier, not the country. in c/customs · 1 points · 8 days ago
Correcting myself upthread: the guidance I quoted was superseded last year.
This is why every thread here has to start with a country.

Rate quotes expire because the underlying rate moves. A short expiry is ordinary; urgency about your decision is a separate signal and should be read separately.

That is not what patient-specific means. It refers to the prescription, not to a customisation of the formula.

comment on [Discussion] the TB-500 advice in here is 2 years out of date in c/researchpeptides · 52 points · 1 months ago
Research-use-only material is not approved for human use. In this catalogue that covers essentially everything, which is why the board discusses material and analytics rather than outcomes.

Disagree with the "more water is safer" framing. It is not safer, it is just a different number to divide by.

Correction: the starting dose is a tolerance step rather than a treatment dose. The distinction is the answer to the question above.

Yes. The shortage list is the legal hinge for the whole arrangement and its status is public.

Reconstituted at 3mL when I meant to use a different volume. Caught it because the units looked wrong on the barrel. Now I write 10mg/mL on the glass before I put the cap back.

I keep a laminated card in the drawer with the arithmetic on it. Looks ridiculous. Has never once let me draw the wrong volume.

Declared value and product description are chosen by the shipper. Asking what they use is a legitimate pre-order question and the answer tells you how routine this is for them.

This. Showing the working is the fastest way for somebody else to spot the mistake.
