OK so I finally pulled the trigger on a WWB (Wuhan Wansheng) order after lurking here for literally 3 months. I was SO nervous the entire time so I figured I'd document everything for anyone else in my shoes.
Day 1 (Feb 14): Placed order through their email. Paid via crypto (BTC). Got a confirmation within about 4 hours. Tracy sent me a payment confirmation screenshot.
Day 3: Got tracking number. It showed origin scan in Wuhan.
Days 4-9: Tracking didn't update AT ALL. I was convinced it was lost. Almost messaged Tracy like 5 times but didn't want to be annoying.
Day 10: Suddenly tracking showed it cleared customs in LA. I literally screamed.
Day 12: Package showed up at my door. Plain brown box, no indication of contents. Inside was bubble wrap, cold pack (still slightly cool somehow??), and my 10 vials of semaglutide 5mg.
Day 13 (today): Reconstituted first vial with 2ml BAC water. Drew 0.25mg dose. Injected in belly. No pain, no redness, clear solution.
I cannot believe I was this stressed over something that went completely smoothly. 😅
Total cost: $220 for 10 vials + $45 shipping = $265. My insurance copay for ONE month of brand Ozempic was $350.
Will send a vial to Janoshik next week for testing. Will update this thread.

Welcome to the club! 😄 Your timeline is pretty standard for WWB direct from China. 10-14 days is typical.
> Days 4-9: Tracking didn't update AT ALL
This is the "dark period" everyone goes through with their first order. Tracking always goes dark for a few days when it's in transit over the Pacific. Totally normal.
Definitely get that Janoshik test done — it's the gold standard for peace of mind. My last WWB sema came back at 98.1% purity. You'll probably see something similar.

Nice write-up. A few things for your future orders:
1. You can ask Tracy for USPS tracking once it hits the US — sometimes the China tracking number converts, sometimes it doesn't
2. Cold pack being cool after 12 days is actually normal in winter. Summer orders sometimes arrive warm but lyophilized peptides are stable at room temp for weeks
3. $22/vial is the standard WWB price. If you order 20+ vials you can usually get it down to $19-20/vial
Your experience mirrors mine almost exactly from my first order 18 months ago. Now I'm on order #11 and it's completely routine.

Oh my god thank you for posting this. I've been lurking for two months trying to get the courage to order. The step-by-step really helps.
Can I ask — how did you set up the crypto payment? That's the part that intimidates me the most. I've never bought Bitcoin before.

Dr.ReproEndo I used Coinbase! Made an account, bought BTC, then sent it to the wallet address Tracy gave me. Coinbase has a really simple interface. The whole process took maybe 20 minutes including verification. There's a guide in the wiki here too.
One tip — buy slightly more BTC than you need because there are network fees when you transfer. I needed $265 worth and bought $280 just to be safe.
