They used to be reliable but have recently started not responding to enquiries and occasionally taking people's money without sending orders Keep away from.

They have stopped responding to orders. If you make an order you risk losing your money.

Customer service should be a zero. When I emailed them about 3 or 4 times, they finally contacted me 2 weeks after my delivery came saying "Your order came, you signed for it, and tracking number is..... What a joke. Then the same person emailed me back after I emailed him a nice note, he had nerve enough to say, your welcome, have a great day. DON'T BUY

Although I did receive my order on the very last day that it was supposed to be delivered, I am still a little skeptical. I cannot get a hold of anyone in customer support or anything. So I was sweating it for a while since it had been 4 weeks since my order. But they did come through. Not so sure about the company but may use again since they did come through finally. Use at your own risk.

I had the same problem as Carol, I went through the ordering process and at the end it kept saying one moment please, finally after one hour I turned it off. I e-mailed the company about it but have not heard a word from them. I called my credit card company to see if a payment had gone out because I wanted to cancel it. They said they see nothing at this time. I can understand maybe the processing problem but not returning my e-mails there is no reason for that.

This company is impossible to get a hold of. I placed my order, they sent it out, then DHL (their deliverer)and it was sent back to them. I never received my order of over $150.00. I have emailed them ten times or more since then and have no response. I really just want a response. So if you are leary of online pharmacies, beware this is not one I would recommend. I have used others with much better succes like RX Life.

After using this site for the first time, I got my order within about 3 weeks. A little long and I wasn't notified at all by the company that my order even got processed even through multiple emails. However, my order came eventually at a reasonable price.

They do take longer than I would like. I only care about delivery. They deliver. I am glad I finnally found them. Because I am un insured. I need the services they provide. Use them, what more can I say?
