Koi Peptides or US Peptides?

On our stars Koi Peptides comes out ahead, 3.6 to 1.6. Koi Peptides lets you open its certificates before you order; US Peptides does not, and for a first order that gap matters more than any price. Only US Peptides lists the reference vial, so we cannot call the price question. Koi Peptides takes cards and US Peptides does not, which decides it for anyone who wants chargeback rights.
