  1. Weak

    Posted by Unknown on 13th Jan 2015

    These pills are very weak. I would equate 1 mg of US made Ativan with 4 mgs of this source.


  2. Good all rounder

    Posted by Pauly44 on 18th Feb 2014

    My order took a long time to turn up but it did! I was quite surprised at this point but umar was as good as his word. Everything I ordered turned up. I ordered several products and so far they all seem good! I will definitely use this site again as the products are a lot cheaper than other sites. The shipping fee is quite expensive but you only get charged once. Other sites say free post but the price has been added to the product first.
