Auragen Research Review: Former Black Gold Peptides, No Public COAs, Slow Dispatch Terms

Auragen Research is the store that now answers at the Black Gold Peptides web address; the old domain redirects to it, and the new site says it was formerly Black Gold Peptides. It trades as Auragen Research LLC and lists a street address in Mineral Wells, Texas, with a phone number and support email.

We looked at the homepage, both shop pages, two product pages, the FAQ, and the shipping and refund policies. A documentation page linked from the site did not open. Product pages give clear chemical identifiers, but the testing paperwork is not public.

Who Auragen Research is and what the catalog covers

The shop listed about 22 products when we looked. They include Selank, Semax, MOTS-c, KPV, DSIP, GHK-Cu, NAD+, tesamorelin, the KLOW blend and GLP-1 class compounds under in-house codes. Prices run from about $30 to $100, and several items were out of stock.

Alongside the vials, the store sells spray versions of MT-2, NAD+, Selank and Semax, and ready-mixed 10 mL liquids such as a B-12 product and a lipotropic blend. Each product page lists the CAS number, formula, molecular weight and storage temperatures, which is more chemical detail than many stores give.

Testing claims without public reports

The homepage says products are tested by a US-based third-party lab for HPLC purity and ESI-MS identity, and it claims purity of 99% or higher with batch-specific certificates available through a lookup tool. It does not name the lab.

The product pages checked tell a different story. Their lab reports tab states that no public report has been uploaded yet, and the batch field simply refers buyers to the product label. The separate documentation page did not load when we tried it, so we could not confirm the lookup tool works.

Until reports appear, buyers have only the supplier's claims. Ask support for the report that matches your batch and confirm it with the issuing lab before relying on it.

Labeling and purchase checks

Product pages state that items are for research use only and not for human or veterinary use, and they give no amounts, use directions or effect claims. Buyers represent that they are qualified individuals or labs doing lawful research. We saw no age gate or 21+ confirmation, and no separate terms of sale page was found.

The spray and ready-mixed liquid products are self-administration formats that do not fit research-use-only supply, even with research-use notices on their pages.

Shipping, refunds and support

The shipping policy says orders are processed after payment and may take up to 20 business days to ship, while product pages promise dispatch within 24 hours. Carriers and costs are set at checkout, and the policy does not cover cold packs, international delivery or lost parcels. Packages marked delivered by the carrier are the buyer's responsibility.

The shipping page says all sales are final, while the refund page allows returns in exceptional cases with prior authorization. Damaged or wrong items must be reported within 5 business days of delivery with photos, and approved refunds go to the original payment method within 5 to 7 business days after inspection. Payment methods are not listed. Support is by email and phone.

Verdict: what to check before ordering

Auragen Research suits buyers who value a reachable Texas contact and detailed chemical identifiers. It is a weak fit for labs that need published, batch-matched certificates or firm dispatch times.

Before ordering, ask for the lab report for your batch, confirm it with the issuing lab, and ask support how long your order will take to ship.
