They seem to have the real deal for everything they sell, even if they aren't investing much in things like packaging (super crappy, and they should spend more money in making it look nicer (the word "invest" doesn't exist in Swedish apparently...) but it's only packaging). They don't have third-party tests, but their supplier provides tests for them, and as I understand it their supplier does not manufacture the product, which is maybe a good thing? Still, third-party testing would obviously be good, but again they REALLY don't want to spend money if they aren't immediately making a profit, which shows their business acumen is somewhat lacking. Moreover, they aren't scientifically literate at all - they know next to nothing - but they seem to be doing everything correctly (the only two steps of importance are getting pure substances, and providing accurate dosages). Of course, nobody has checked against them yet, but this is all I've inferred from my private conversations with them.

Just posting this on here so people know, though - if NootropicsDepot don't do it, these guys are the next safest bet! :) They certainly aren't perfect though, so I've made some criticisms…

Sure, many large supplement brands won't give you lab results, either. They are also large companies selling natural supplements, and who have a lot of money to get from them if you sue them for selling a fake/impure product. It's a much different situation than a small brand new company selling peptides and other advanced compounds, then putting up supplier COAs but lying and telling people they are secondary tests that they ran. Furthermore, I think the large brands should be called out for not giving detailed results as well. One wrong doesn't make another right. I would also trust a brand like NOW to put a lot more QA/QC into things than a no-name company outside the US. You can sue NOW. They have a lot to lose, and they have the money to ensure things are done right. Not so for the small sketchy suppliers of peptides. Plus, there is no incentive there. Multiple other vendors have sold shit for years with no testing. People still buy from them. They know most people don't care, or don't know any better. I think that needs to change.
While I don't disagree it would be ideal for all companies to do this it doesn't seem many do or see it as an issue (Jarrow point blank told me they don't give coas) but I would not take that itself as them selling impure products rather just their mentality. From the different subs here I've only seen nootropics and cbd actually have labs o…

I get not giving lab readouts, but they should at least give a COA. I would hope Jarrow is doing things right, but again that's just a hope without data.
Regarding your stance with nootropic depot's products where could I access your 3rd party labs? I did not see it on your site. Do you plan to have that available in the future?
We won't have them on the site, because it would be too much work to constantly update them all for every lot of every product. I want to eventually have an app that you can scan the barcode/QR code of the product you got, and it will pull up all the info and COA on the product, but I have not found a developer that can do that for us yet. For now, you can ask my support team for the COA of a specific lot.
