Peptide prices and lab budgets: cost per milligram, shipping and payment

Plan a research peptide budget: compare cost per milligram, total landed cost, bulk-order trade-offs, payment protection, purchase orders and discounts.

Compare listings on a like-for-like basis before looking at headline prices. The price-per-milligram guide shows how to normalise vial sizes and peptide content, and the total-cost guide adds shipping, taxes, testing and replacement risk so the cheapest listing is not mistaken for the cheapest usable lot.

Next decide how you will pay and order. The payment-methods guides explain what protection each method gives the buyer, and the purchase-order guide covers institutional routes. Read the bulk-order guide before committing to volume, because retest dates and storage limits can cancel out a per-unit saving.

Use the budget template to plan a year of purchases, and check the supplier discount pages last. They list only what each supplier publishes on its own site, with the date it was checked, so confirm the terms on the supplier's site at checkout.
