The reps need to be responsive as well. To everyone.With QSC seemingly back from the dead next SSA promo's going to have to be EPIC to stay on top.

Like this one. I place the syringe on it and fold it over onto itself and it warms the oil up fairly quickly.What heating pad?
Calm down. 9999/10000 people get their pack from SSA. They have covert shipping ops. Packs get relayed. You wont be able to see door to door shipping, just the tail end.Ordered from SSA got tracking number and it said that package USPS is awaiting package by partner shipping company and said the package departed from said shipping company but it’s been a week and it hasn’t gotten it yet. That doesn’t make sense because it said that the partner company was in New York City so there’s no way that there’s not a USPS in New York City.
Order placed 7/17, tracking received about 10 days later once asked. Will arrive on east coast at my place this Thursday so about 20 days total. Pretty respectable considering the large sale they had. Never used them before, mostly hgh and some peps.Ordered from SSA got tracking number and it said that package USPS is awaiting package by partner shipping company and said the package departed from said shipping company but it’s been a week and it hasn’t gotten it yet.

I have heard similar comments regarding chinese oils in general. Some people claim there may be contaminants and the cheap vials they use can be problematic. I did not want to filter and buy new vials if at all possible, but the oil is cheap enough to make it worth it I guess. I just wonder how filtering affects the shelf life. I haven't filtered oil in the past, but I know once the vial is pinned, the shelf life decreases
That's normal. I've had them not update till the day they were delivered.Ordered from SSA got tracking number and it said that package USPS is awaiting package by partner shipping company and said the package departed from said shipping company but it’s been a week and it hasn’t gotten it yet.

So transferring oils from one vial to another, assuming both are sealed and sterile, and a sterile process is used, should not affect long term storage shelf life? My concern is the same as the post you were replying to here, that by piercing the stopper, it somehow starts some countdown timer. I imagine this belief assumes sterility is compromised by this by either the introduction of bacteria or by a compromised stopper seal? I plan to use a thinner gauge needle to insure that the stopper reseals itself fully, so instead of an 18g maybe a 23g. Would a filter be necessary, or only needed if there is some assumed contaminant already present?That's only true for vials that have been terminally sterilized. That is, sterilized after the vials are sealed, using heat or radiation.
Pharma does that. UGLs and homebrewers don't, They just filter sterilize, like you are.
Are we talking about transferring CN oils? I think the main purpose is to filter, getting them into new/clean vials is secondary.So transferring oils from one vial to another, assuming both are sealed and sterile, and a sterile process is used, should not affect long term storage shelf life?

No, I'm talking about domestic oil from a very trusted source who over fills his vials so the stoppers are in contact with the oil, and in turn benzyl benzoate, which is a bad idea for long term storage. I typically don't mess with CN oils, personallyAre we talking about transferring CN oils? I think the main purpose is to filter, getting them into new/clean vials is secondary.
If you're taking the time to draw it out of an old one why not push it in the new one through a filter. I know some of the CN stuff I got have visible floaters. Looks like dust or whatever.
I've been waiting for these to come in stock for months now, no luck. Couldn't find them anywhere else, either.If you transfer vials, you should refilter.
You can get one of these seals (Tho I've not tried)

Thank you. I actually just found that one, and a few others, all in 1000 piece quantities. I'll have to decide if it's worth itI found this by randomly googling, but its 1000 seals lmao
Wiser man than I. I couldn't resist the cheap prices. But there in the long term stash and I'll use the domestic stuff while I can.No, I'm talking about domestic oil from a very trusted source who over fills his vials so the stoppers are in contact with the oil, and in turn benzyl benzoate, which is a bad idea for long term storage.

The prices are definitely difficult to pass up. I did get about 30 test E vials from a Chinese supplier, but those are backups to my backups lol. As for the over filled vials, I've only found one of the four domestic sources I've bought from to have this "issue". The rest have plenty of clearance. I've purchased a bunch of vials with PTFE stoppers, which are highly chemically resistant, and plan to transfer everything over to those. The "how" is what I'm trying to figure out now. Trying to do everything possible to make these oils last as long as is possible. MCT oil (fully saturated means much lower oxidation risk), PTFE stoppers, filled as much as possible without stopper contact (less air=less oxidation), stored in a cool place with minimal temperature fluctuations and zero light.Wiser man than I.

Now you have me wanting to make sure I don't have any over filled. Thanks for the heads up.
