Have you tried shining your phone flashlight from the bottom through the glass? Sometimes that creates enough contrast to read the faded batch numbers.

What brand was this because I had a similar issue last month with a grey market supplier.

That is a brilliant trick actually. I will try that next time instead of squinting like a madman.

Honestly I keep a roll of thermal sticker labels nearby and just slap my own clear text over the bad ones immediately.

I would rather not name them directly on here but they are pretty common in the community right now. It is just super frustrating when safety and clear identification should be the bare minimum.

That is indeed the case; ice packs and temperature cause the text to disappear.

I supply peptides in bulk using double packaging; while the packaging is simple, it ensures the product remains clearly identifiable.
