I'd been doing a good bit of my media supply shopping through mass spectrum botanicals, but they've been backed up by logistical issues amongst the wet season and I'm 1.5 months into waiting for an order of BAP.

Would anyone know a good secondary source that isn't too pricy? I'm only in need of 1mg.

Thx,
Nico

Plantmedia.com (via bio-world.com) is an alternative since phytotech has weird shipping terms. Its they tend to estimate and then bill upon shipment. Buy cold storage things separately so they don’t charge for a huge box with wet/dry ice. Amazon sometimes has baggies of BAP if absolutely necessary. Good luck with the plant tissue culture!

Sebastian is right. Phytotech's shipping is kind of weird and
sometimes it costs more than it should. For large orders their
shipping is reasonable but for small orders the shipping can more than
double the total cost. The good thing with Phytotech is they have
good customer support and you can call them on the phone and negotiate
shipping. They also will ship to residential addresses.

Although, BioWorld has weird fees too. I think they hit me with a
"fuel surcharge" and a "small order fee" last time I ordered from
them.

GoldBio is another decent choice. They have flat shipping fees (none
of the "we'll tell you the price later" game) but the minimum quantity
for 6BAP is 100g which is $54 USD.

I recommend that you don't do business with BioWorld. I was engaged by them to help their business ..... I can tell you that they don't behave ethically, have no concern for customers. So why reward them with your business? Of course in the end its for the customer to decide (disclaimer to keep my lawyer happy, lol).
