Same product, different vendors, different results. Is this normal? Powder City/Ceretropic

Due to the Great Powder City Crisis of 2016 I had to find another source for my Adrafinil. I researched reputable vendors and finally settled on Ceretropic. My experience with PC's Adrafinil has always been clean, long lasting and extremely effective. The Adrafinil from Ceretropic felt off, clunky and delayed. I had to reconfigure dosage all over again even though I've been using Adrafinil for almost a full year now, in the end wasting product and therefore money. I am not saying that something is wrong with Ceretropic's product, only that it did not give me the specific effects that I have come to associate with Adrafinil.
What I want to know from you, O Great Reddit Community, is if differences like these are to be expected from one vendor to the next, or if nootropics and their effects are generally consistent across the board. I have only ever used PC, so I have nothing but this one instance to use as a comparison.
I'd just like to have a reliable backup in case something like this temporary shortage happens again in the future. What say you, wise ones? Should I expect similar experiences in the future with other companies? Have you?

What are your thoughts on omega3-augmented phosphatidylserine, like those found in Vayarin? Would there be a difference between DHA and EPA bound to phosphatidylserine? Does it matter if you already supplement high quality fish oil?

I see no advantages to that compared to taking PS and fish oil separately. It looks like that company did it to capitalize on an orphan drug status, and make something they could patent and sell exclusively. Just take a good fish oil with your phosphatidylserine.
