Poll Question
If you ordered a free sample from Biotran, did you ever receive the free sample in the mail in a timely manner?
Poll Background Information
Biotran is one of the very rare International Online Pharmacies that readily offers free samples of his medications namely Codeine (Codeisan/Perduretas) and Limovan (Zoplicone). However, there has been numerous reports that Biotran does indeed fulfill th ese free sample orders and others reports claim that they never received the free sample even months later despite being told it was shipped out. Biotran ships out of England where the customs confiscation rate is low and for a package containing one little blister pack of 10 pills in a letter type envelope it is highly unlikely these packages would be getting seized. So is Biotran the rare IOP that offers AND dose indeed ship free samples of Codeine And Limovan?
Everyone answer the poll and lets find out

I've never heard of him offering Sample Of Perduretas. You could take that off the list. He offers samples of Codeine. When he is ready he will normally switch you to perds, unless you tell him not to.

Yes I realized that after I posted and some spelling errors but it wont let me change or edit the polls only the post. I posted a great survey with many polls for Starliterx and Jim youll like it. Cant wait for some results. Alot of spelling errors and a couple missing voting options but its the best one out there. Go see.

From the Biotran site:
If you are interested in trying a free sample of Perduretas or Codeisan, send your full name and address by email and you will receive information how to get 10 pills of Perduretas or Codeisan.
He does offer to send samples of PERDS but apparently you can get one or the other depending on his supply.
He told me only Codeisan was available when I asked for PERD samples - he did not say he doesn't offer PERDS as samples.
People, just recently, have reported asking for Codeisan samples and receiving PERDS instead.

I have never noticed that before, but I do know that I have never head of someone getting the perduretas as their sample. It seems to me from all the reading that you will get the codeine first, and then the perds.
I do remember at one point someone had posted that biotran said he wanted to get you to the perdurates, because he did not make money on the codeine. True or not, I don't know, but I do know I read it.

well I missed "the boat on that" I actually like the weaker codeine, (instant release) better. But it is more expensive, on all sites I have seen it at.( mg to mg comparison)

The other thing is ( and more of a point) is the the news reporter said that "wayne" an asian livinging in the UK, had more respect for the people of the UK and would not send meds there way. Maybe Admin will post the article again sometime.( back from 2004) but it still has a lot of information that holds today.
Received my sample of codes after several months of waiting. Sent payment immediately and another order for codes. After 3 weeks received 20 perds. I'll send him his payment and another order requesting codes, but if he sends me perds again that's it. I didn't order them and I don't want them so why does he send them?

dede, I think it's a matter of stock and what he has on hand. Also, Wayne doesn't have much respect for your wishes and does whatever he wants. If you don't like it he doesn't care and will tell you so.
Like his business approach, his customer service is also not what I'd call normal. He doesn't treat his customers in such a way as to show them they are important to him.
This is based on many posts about Biotran that I've read and my own personal experiences.
Other than that, it's pretty hard to beat his prices on the few meds he has to offer. So, I wouldn't expect much from this source, it's just like they say. You get what you pay for and in this case you pay less but get less service at the same time.
If you're need is for a more reliable situation you may wish you look elsewhere. This source is great if you're not picky about the products you order and great customer service.
This is just my OPINION, reading the posts here you can definitely tell he is no scammer. It's more like a lack of effort on his part.

I wish people would stop referring to him so negatively. I think he's a great guy. If you think negatively of him, go elsewhere please.

Perds are codeine just like the others, except timed release and there are ways around that.
More mgs of codeine in one Perd than one Cod.

I Think he sends whats in stock, he has pointed out before that he does not make money ( or much ) on the codeine product. My only suggestion would be to send him extra money, and include a note that you want codeine and not perdurates. I would think he would do it for you, but if not you may have to order from the other site that carries codeine. If there is one ( and I know it's off topic to list any other sites here) so good luck to you.

Me too. and I don't ever need to talk to him, so the service is good, and seemless. Those of you who might want to try him, will find 2009 spring time a better bet, as he will close up for a month for christmas, and then take some time to catch up with his regulars. But you never know when he will start you wih a sample.

Thanks for that info, Strawberry. Would be interested to read the article, will do a search to see if I can find it. He sounds like a real gem if he sends stuff out before you pay, I like that he operates on trust.

I didn't mean to personally attack him if that's how my post is viewed. I don't want to get anyone upset over an opinion. I know he has a very loyal following so I'm not ignorant about that.
Also, just because someone doesn't utilize his customer service doesn't make it good customer service.
I'm sorry if I've offended anyone, NBG particularly. I apologize.

As far as the sending him extra money thing goes...a while back when there was a great deal of discussion about just that...my monkey's Uncle sent an extra $25 (as a "tip") on his second order.
This is after he totally bypassed that sample mess and just payed for what he wanted "up front" on his first order (and waited 7 weeks to get it). Of course, he included all the forms, and a note indicating what he was doing, and otherwise followed all the little peccadillos specifically.
With the second order he again followed all the peccadillos and included a note indicating what he was doing...including sending a "tip".
When he received his second order...about 2 weeks later..."Wayne" sent him $30 cash back...along with a note with instructions on a discounted price to send for the next order.
"Wayne" is good by me!
He is "different" no doubt. How many people would even consider operating under his business model?
Can you imagine how many times he's been shafted?

yes, though the Perds are time released. I do not like the Perds but would take them in a pinch.
