[Question] how do you actually verify order records

Questionbranch of 10 comments

Trying to get a straight answer on this: how do you actually verify order records. Why the directory has two tiers, since the question comes up whenever somebody new finds it. Twenty suppliers have enough independent results, over enough separate lots, over enough time, that the log says something. Those get a page,…

About c/vendorvetting

The community due-diligence desk. Vendor experiences, independent third-party test results, shipping and reship records, and the boring paperwork that separates a supplier from a story. Every substantive claim is expected to carry a receipt: an order id, a dated screenshot, or a test report from Janoshik, Medutest, PeptideMeter or VendorInvestigate.
