Credit card companies are so paranoid lately. They call and ask about a $100 charge. There is so much identity theft they are getting ridiculous.

There are some cards with very high interest that let high charges go by so they can get penalties , over limit charges etc. Bank Of America I have found to be good about not letting weird charges that are out of the ordinary go through without a phone call.

I canceled all my cards. They are raising interest rates and it does not matter how high your Fico score is or how good your credit is. If you opt out they cancel you.

Just in case anyone was wondering, I ordered Phentermine from basicmeds.com and received fake pills.

Cost $199.00 for 90. I emailed them and they asked for a scan of the medication's paperwork (there wasn't any). Since I received a plastic baggy with an orange sticker and hand written 08/11 on it, I took a picture and emailed it back.

The fake pills I got were the white with A-159 imprint. While the counterfeit is a good fake, I do have the real pills in my home (from CVS) and there are marked differences. The blue specks are a completely different consistancy. On the real A-159, the blue specks are more difficult to reproduce, they are similar in size and 'sharp' points. On the counterfeit pills I received, the specks vary in size and are 'blurry'.

The consistency of the pill is not similar, the counterfeit pills are dusty and the bag is full of the dust that came off them. The real pills have a coating and do not 'dust' or 'flake' as easily.

Most importantly, I tried the medicine and there is no effect. Phentermine is cheap to make and produce, so it is very sad they went to the trouble of making the pills look real and not adding the actual active ingredients.

I asked for an address to return the counterfeit pills, along with the pictures, and the differences in the 'real' pill and the 'fake' pill and here is the response I received from basic meds:

So, apparently they will not refund or allow me to return or make excuses for sending fake pills. I am off to my credit card company for a 'not as described' complaint.

Don't waste your time.

Sorry to hear about that jenny. Those are one of the more common meds to be bootlegged, and if you google it people on a few forums are complaining about them (from various suppliers). Here is a little reading...

- INTELLIGENCE ALERT -

PHENTERMINE COUNTERFEITS (CONTAINING ACETAMINOPHEN)
IN PASADENA, TEXAS



The Pasadena Regional Crime Laboratory (Texas) recently received a submission of approximately 100 oval white tablets with blue speckles, each imprinted with “A 159” and half-scored on one face (see Photo 2; scale tick-marks are 1/8th inch). The tablets were turned into the Pasadena Police by a private citizen who had found them in their child’s rucksack. The tablet packaging was not included, but allegedly indicated that the tablets had been produced in and shipped from Pakistan, apparently filling an order made on an Internet website. An Internet search indicated that the tablet type and imprint were consistent with a pharmaceutical phentermine product. However, although most of the tablets appeared to be in good condition, a number of fragments and powder from broken tablets was noted, and subsequent handling showed that the tablets were not properly compressed and crumbled easily, suggesting that the tablets were not a legitimate pharmaceutical product. Analysis of the tablets (weight not determined) by UV and GC/MS indicated not phentermine but rather only acetaminophen. This submission is this laboratory’s first encounter with counterfeit phentermine tablets.

Good work. It never ends does it.

So how bout all of us go to a real doctor and get real scripts so we dont have to deal with [censored]] [censored]] lol. Thank god IM back with my insurance and wont have to deal with this online [censored] anymore, I wish the best of luck to all who order from basicmeds, they did reship mine and they seem to be real and they were loose which seems to be the norm for them, sorry to hear that yours is fake, that sucks balls, Good luck peeps for real.

Wow. I had been lurking on their site and was close to putting in an order for P. Looks like will not now until reviews get better.
BTW on their site they say they price match. Would like to konw if anyone has taken them up on that?

What do you need? Basic does have the best prices, but I ordered elsewhere simply because there have been numerous complaints about the quality of the medication. I personally would rather pay a little bit more for some meds I know I won't have to throw away. Some of these IOPs have crazy prices nowadays though

Yeah depending on what u need, Im telling u Airmailpharmacy1 was super impressive to me, so fast, from germany, didnt check and see it in customs, just right to my door. BM did show up eventually on reorder but the valiums seem to be maybe 5s or less but say 10. I get prescribed 5s generic diazepam and these arnt as strong as those but they seem real at least. Its paramil some indian company that made em. I would go with airmail they were STADA 10s and were nice and fast, but yes a little more expensive depending on what u need.

My klonopins were week as hell

Yes, I ordered Klonopin from Basic Meds and it's VERY WEEK !

[quote=HotDamn]The airmailpharmacy fluke is their own thing, nothing like BM. sounds like you got EMS shipping (if its trackable) for both orders. and thats known to be the easiest way to get a confiscation. and you have 2 orders that way, one thats still there from paki and now the new one. im sure with EMS shipping they took both of them, you should of either not used EMS, or you should of waited until you got your paki order (or seizure letter), and then got the reship sent. i wouldnt doubt the reship got snagged because the paki one is still there/fresh in someones memory. and its not odd at all that both ended up in NY customs. [/q



well PAKISTANNY ORDERS HAVE CLEARED customs and are being delivered this week!
they are a very honest place, its a shame to lose this iop! for htfi! omo
now that ny went through maybe the one stuck on west coast will move !
BM's meds come to both sides of country and if you are paitent you will get an order or LL but to the one whos name i wont mention (not HOTDAMN) but thanx for bitchin about pakky orders you just got me two orders thanx!
now i feel like if the reship comes they should get paid for it!

Yeah my Paky order cleared as well, just later then the INdia reship which was put out later so looks like I will get both of them as well as long as no police involved im str8 lol. But yeah on the quality the valiums for sure are not 10s, they are some india company that made these palima 10 valiums and there less strong then my 5s. The Stadas from airmail, about 7 or 8mg probably instead of 10 so they were stronger and better, well see about this PAKISTAN freaking valium see how they work out, ROCHE or a company I am familiar with would be nice these wierd ones and packagings are crazy, but hope everyone gets there stuff. GOOD LUCK

I have not heard of a LL being sent registered or certified in the US. A pure LL will look like a normal government letter, usually HLS or customs. NEVER acknowledge it, scan if you are going for a reship and burn immediately. I would prefer that to an empty envelope with customs stickers or tape on it, which some POE's do or used to do.

re-stock looks to be in place........gd news

For those of you lurking, and worried about a BasicMeds shipment:

Placed order on 8/13, received today, SE US. Not from Pakistan. I found the generic 2mg clonazepam to be comparable to US generic strength.
What was impressive was the packaging. I've been playing the IOP game for 12 years (anyone remember MOPID? Before they went south?) I've never seen this much effort put into good generic packaging. I'm amazed anyone using regular ship (never use Express!) could ever get an LL.
I don't mind a 30 day wait if it's priced well, decent quality, and doesn't get seized.

I rarely post, but I wanted to give BasicMeds snaps. Some on here are fast to criticize.

Ordered 8/24
Received 9/8

Pakistan to US V's

ordered 8/20
received 8/27
A couple complaints. Package came from pakistan when told from india. I was dumb and used EMS and it did make it, but my order was split. I was told because of problems with customs over in their country no more EMS (so I paid extra for nothing and still waiting for the other half)

Just my 2 cents

ever order any oxy? do u no where????legit company??

there is no legit co. that sells oxy. very very very few iops will offer it and it be shipped . the only ones i know that ever offered it was starlite, more than a year ago (no longer offer it) and 1oxycodone, sold out and currently having shipping problems. the only other place to look is in the blatantly illegal and shipping form US forum. but that is a bigb big gamble

I see they don't sell any benzo's or even zolpidem anymore, is there a way to get
those products to show, or do you have to go to a different IOP?

Yes, I can't see interesting things in BM list now...
They promise to restock or what's happen ?

Date Time Location Tracking Event

International Hub Damage noted
?????

damage.... shyt LL might be coming now... or knock at me door..

0r am i paniking for nothing.....

Just ignore any LL !

Yes ignore it, but if you want a reship you need to provide it to the seller. At least a copy then get rid of it.

Keep the LL to provide it to the seller but don't contact your Customs about the package !

I thought I just said that.
