Remember back in December when I broke down what conformity testing is and why it matters? 🔗 What is Conformity Testing? (And Why It Matters) If you missed it — the short version is that most vendors test ONE vial from a batch that could be hundreds or even thousands of vials. Conformity testing means testing MULTIPLE vials from the same batch to make sure what's on the COA actually reflects what you're getting. Well… conformity testing is starting to catch on in the research space. Big time. In just the last two weeks, 7 companies have reached out to me to let me know they're adding conformity testing across the board — for every new batch of peptides going forward. Let that sink in for a second. That's not a coincidence. That's YOU guys. That's this community pushing the standard higher. Trust me when I say your opinion matters. Companies that truly care about the customer WILL go the extra mile — and it's happening right now in real time. We're 9,000+ strong in here and it wouldn't be possible without you guys supporting peptideprice.store! Over the next week or so, I'll be highlighting the new companies that have stepped up and added testing. And we've got some exciting ones coming that are going beyond just purity — we're talking sterility and heavy metals testing 👀 Stay tuned. This is just the beginning. The bar is rising, and it's because of all of you. 💪

Has anyone used Retatrutide and low-dose (2.5 mg) Semiglutide together on their RS? Low-dose semaglutide would be used to reduce food noise rather than increasing the Retatrutide dosage. Other researchers have used Cagrilintide for the same reason. I’d love to hear your opinion, thoughts, or experiences. Thank you.

9K. Nine thousand. I still can't believe it. When I started this community, I never imagined we'd hit this number. There was a stretch where I actually stopped promoting Skool because I wasn't sure if the platform would stick around — but you guys kept showing up, kept helping each other, and kept building this into what it is today. And that's the thing — YOU built this. This community isn't what it is because of me. It's what it is because of the people in here answering questions, sharing experiences, and looking out for each other every single day. I genuinely believe this is the best free peptide education community on Skool. And that's not because of any one person — it's because of all 9,000 of you. I will never take all the support on peptideprice.store for advantage! Thank you. Seriously. Let's keep it going. 🙏

If you've ever ordered from a research company and noticed your package shipped from a completely different state than where that company is based — you're not alone. I get questions about this all the time, so let's break down what's actually going on behind the scenes. What Is a 3PL? 3PL stands for Third-Party Logistics. It's essentially an outsourced fulfillment operation. Instead of a research company handling every single order in-house — storing inventory, labeling vials, packing boxes, printing shipping labels, and dropping them off with carriers — they contract that work out to a 3PL facility that specializes in exactly that. Think of it like this: the research company handles the sourcing, testing, quality control, and customer service. The 3PL handles the physical grunt work of getting that product from a shelf into your hands. How Does It Actually Work? Here's the full pipeline of what happens when you place an order with a company using a 3PL: 1. Inventory is shipped in bulk to the 3PL facility. The research company manufactures or sources their products and then ships bulk inventory to the 3PL warehouse. This could be hundreds or thousands of units at a time. 2. The 3PL receives and stores the inventory. The facility logs everything into their warehouse management system (WMS), assigns lot and batch numbers for traceability, and stores the products — often in climate-controlled or temperature-monitored environments, which is critical for peptides that can degrade with heat exposure. 3. You place your order. When you check out on the company's website, that order is automatically pushed to the 3PL through integrations with platforms like Shopify, WooCommerce, or custom systems. 4. The 3PL picks, labels, and packs your order. This is where the magic happens. The 3PL staff pulls your products from the shelf, applies the company's branded labels (including any required disclaimers like "For Research Use Only"), packs everything up — often in plain, discreet packaging — and generates your shipping label.

I saw another post in the community sharing why they started their research journey, and it inspired me to share mine — and I'd love to hear yours too. For those of you who are new here, here's my story: I lost all my weight naturally — no peptides — going from 250 lbs to 175 lbs over the course of about 2-3 years. Pure discipline, diet, and consistency. But then came the hard part. For about two years after that, I struggled with maintenance. I couldn't find a steady place where I was eating whole, clean foods that actually kept me satiated and kept the food noise quiet. I found myself stuck in a brutal cycle of binging and restricting, and it got bad — to the point where my mental health was seriously suffering. I pushed through all of it, but being in college at the time made everything harder. I had heard about semaglutide, and some compounding pharmacies carried it, but the newer option at the time was tirzepatide at a microdose — which is what compounding pharmacies were offering. After three years of struggling with binge eating, I finally took the leap and got on a microdose of tirz from a compounding pharmacy, where I paid over $1,000 for just 10mg. Even at a low dose of 1mg, it completely changed my life. The food noise? Gone. Silenced entirely. But here's the thing — even making decent money as a software engineer, I knew I wanted to save for my future, and there was no way I'd be able to afford that long-term. So I started researching. I found the most popular research companies, did deep dives, compared prices across four or five different sites, constantly flipped back and forth, managed coupon codes — the whole nine yards — just trying to find the best deals. And then one random day, after doing all of that yet again, I thought: "Let me just build a tool for this." Instead of making a spreadsheet just for myself... Peptide Price was born. I documented that entire journey on TikTok, and fast-forward about eight months — here we are. This community, this platform, all of the resources — it all started because I was just a guy trying to not overpay for something that genuinely changed my quality of life.
