I'll answer that one Doc as i have had several pharma hook-ups in the past. In previous years i had multiple sources for pharma gear. All have spent jail time or disappeared over the years. 15 years ago you could buy good stuff on the net without much of a hassle. Mexican gear, vet gear, euro pharma, all with just a little digging. Now any moron with a computer connection has realized the money they can make putting crisco in a vial, 10% product, or even going to great lengths to counterfeit even the cheapest test amps.
You can't be sure of any source as what is perfect today may be garbage tomorrow. I can attest to this just like many other members. My first few years dealing with Alin many, many years ago was spectacular. I was getting omnadren/sustanon amps that were full bore. Counterfeit? I don't think so at the time. I'm not sure when things went south, but he know puts out garbage that is counterfeit or devoid of anything at all.
Until people start compiling a shit list of bad suppliers/re-sellers this isn't going to change. Hell, most don't even bother changing names now. Alin is still going strong though i know he is a selective scammer at best. The young guys are all too ready to give up money for even the slightest chance of partial product. Sure, the suppliers are definitely the root of the problem, but the eager beavers are fucking it up for the rest of us and helping to create the environment as much as the bad suppliers.
When i say hold people accountable i don't mean hop on a jet to Europe and smoke someone. Obviously that isn't feasible. We can quit giving people slack in dealing with them. Two bad bloods, kick them to the curb. Fails a labmax and a bad blood, same shit. I know i don't jump on a source immediately here for fear of being burned or injecting estrogen because some dipshit mislabeled a vial/tab.
It is possible we may never find good sources through testing. It may turn out they are all bullshit and underdosed. I can tell you this though, i'm not pinning 2 grams+ of long esters a week to make up for some guy not washing his raws and trying to squeeze every little bit of efficiency he can out of things.
I wouldn't give Darius the time of day if he sent me garbage one time. Why the fuck do i want his replacement garbage? He told me they were testing, so what the fuck is up with that then? His word is shit as far as i am concerned and i consider myself lucky that i didn't get involved. As many others have pointed out, this is a tale that has been repeated far too many times here yet people keep jumping in the fire.
