Dead space is the answer to the missing dose.

I am going to disagree with reconstituting low as a general rule. More diluent, more punctures, more in-use days at room temperature, and the stability trade-off is real. Precision is not the only variable being optimised.

The figures, for anyone assembling their own picture. Red flags, in rough order of how much they should worry you: no verifiable address, no batch numbers, prices far under market, vendor-commissioned tests only, pressure toward irreversible payment, and shipping with no temperature control.

I would rather be corrected than agreed with, if it comes to it.

Adding the part of the answer the thread has not reached. Prices dramatically below market are the strongest single signal, and the reason is arithmetic rather than suspicion. Synthesis, testing, and cold-chain shipping have floors. A price well under the floor means something was skipped, and the two things that get skipped are testing and content.

A narrower follow-up, since the general answer is now clear:

How to check the arithmetic without trusting a website calculator, since three calculators gave me three answers?

OP back with an update, since a thread like this is useless without one.

My error was treating units as a mass. Once I wrote mg/ml on the vial in marker and worked in millilitres first, the two of us got the same answer.
