The cap gets hung up on the crimp. Pop the cap as much as you can then cut it free with scissors. I use a pair of toe nail clippers to trim the jagged bit off afterwards.

Can you post a picture. Take a picture then screen shot it and post the screen shot (file size will be small enough to upload).

I posted exactly how I do it, which sounds exactly like your issue and then you second guess me? You can toss them all out for all I care bro. I’m trying to help.

I mean the first thing you do is fill it with bacteriostatic water, which should buy you a little protection

Cap/crimp is trash. Imagine what's inside when they don't sweat simple details like this.

But yeah, I am being picky. Good luck.

And post the pic on vendors page with their label so everyone can marvel at the craftsmanship.

Yea. That’s perfectly fine. See the jagged piece, just trim that with the nail clippers. You can use all those. Pretty common issue with peptide vials. If that was a steroid vial it’d be inexcusable.

As long as the stopper stays seated you’re good to go. It’s actually pretty hard to mess those things up. If you’re curious enough, when you are done the vial, take some needle nose pliers to the metal crimp, peel it off and then try to get the stopper out. It doesn’t exactly pop off.

Thanks a ton my bad if I was asking stupid questions like i said it's my second time opening one, but Let me ask one more probably stupid question. It's still fine to use even though I took the lid off last night I'm assuming so but trying to avoid unnecessary hospital visits even if unlikely? Is there a system to like give u a medal or something on ur profile so other people know you are helpful that I can do on this forum.

Nah. That thing is fine.

You’ve used peptides before right?

Are those the flip caps that came on all of your peptides?
SHA's premium GH caps are definitely up there. "Generic" vials from CN, no way.

Trying to give perspective on relative cost for this portion of the packaging even for top of line.
