I was wondering if they are still doing a good job in sending out meds. They say 7-10 days, is this a good estimate for getting your meds in the USA? And also does anyone know what the quality of the (lorazepam - Chobet) Lorazepam 2 mg are? Are they like sugar pills? Cause they seem to be pretty cheap and too good to be true..
thanks all!

Welcome to the freeboards, gaba!
Your first post is a good one, there hasn't been a whole lot of feedback on Farmakos recently. They were the hot IOP just a few months ago. I think they lost a little luster after a string of seizures and empty envelopes being delivered. I only used them once, but that was 4 or 5 months ago.

Good questions... The doc just sent an e-mail out to previous customers requesting orders again. Only ordered once, received no problems at all - of course - this was some time ago.

Again I can offer only last summer's experience. I ordered twice, using 2 different variants of my name and two different addresses. My first order was 88 dollars including shipping and I got it. My second was 52 dollars including shipping and I got it. I attribute my luck to 1)small orders,
2) giving the appearance of being a different customer
3)ordering no more than twice.
That was a good rule of thumb for Farmakos' last run and one that I divined by reading the response thread very carefully. . . that his intentions were to squeeze a certain amount out of each customer and then stop delivering. If you sent enough money the first time, he didn't have to bother to ship your order at all. In general, nobody was receiving more than two, except for one or two selected customers to keep the word going (or they may have just been shills.)
The latest list has shown him get d*Best if kept off the board* greedy, hitching his med prices up beyond the already 1000 percent inflation we get on the English list compared to his Spanish site and charging more for his (at last sighting) completely insecure shipping. At one point he was considered speedy but pretty quickly his orders were coming at the same rate as if they were crossing an ocean.
You might want to check the report forum. If the thread isn't in site, bump it. Sometimes people who don't have anything bad to say don't say anything at all.
One factor that might encourage some faith is that DB now has a $10 discount for VIPs. But check the experience forum for experience.

Toe, I might add I received at least twelve orders from Dr. A and i'm no shill. Of course I don't use him anymore due to him harrasing me via e-mail and doing something to me in his chat room at his website that I won't mention via open forum. I will say this, be VERY VERY NICE if you want to receive your order and keep your computers privacy.

Doesn't seem like a very professional "doctor" to me. It's sad cause I thought I would order because he was closer to us than china or thailand, but if the orders take just as long... thanks all.

Close to 20 successful orders some as fast as 5 days. My last order that arrived 3 weeks ago was 10days. Ive had very small orders and larger orders, I see no pattern of ripping someone off on first,second,third,or forth orders etc.
Yes his prices did increase, but I dont know of any IOP whos prices have not raised. Every OP has certain hot items, and the IOPs certainly follow the law of supply and demand.
Ive got a pending order as I type. I expect it anyday now, but as DBers know I will be yelling from the highest tree if I feel something aint right.

Skizzik, you were one of the selected customers to which I was referring, DM, you may have been the other. I just remember Skizzik's frequent posting. Of course, I have no reason to suspect you are a shill. Please respect the order in which my words were written as the only reasonable assumptions . . . I said that the few posters that the one or two posters who reported aeveral orders, with the'shill' comment as a fair and reasonable guess. . . you did trash one of their competitors in one of the other forums. Interesting, as the other boards had a many positive responses from different readers.
Still, I am/was not implying that you are a shill. Maybe you got your name picked out of a hat. Maybe Dr. A has someone who check out the boards and noticed how voraciously you were promoting his site. I don't know WHY you two have received dozens of orders while so many people were lucky to get their third. After reading so many such posts, I wasn't going totake the chance of ordering a 3rd time and prohahly still won't. I only only placed a second order because I believed that I ordering with a different first name to a new address with an order worth less less than than cost of shipping and WU fees. I now have yet another address and Dr. A now offers a VIP discount, but. . .I don't want to donate.
Maybe a year from now and he has become the guru; the New Pharma 24, accepts credit cards, and answers e-mails rbuyer concerns, and realizes that we are not total idiots (the [ real price list is on his board. Even if you don't know Spanish is not hard to figure out how to read a pharmacy pricelist). . maybe then I'll try him again. The gador alprazolam for 48 dollars and 60 30mg dalmane were great deals for an American. But if I want or need 2 mg xanax bars, I can get 90 of them them from any USOP for under 65 dollars and they are sure to get here, undamaged, on the exact day I speciify.

Actually, the total cost of receiving xanax from a USOP with consult IS cheaper than Farmakos. US residents should take note and invest just a little bit of time in reading the USOP boards and ordering from them. I just wrote an entire post with the details, then changed my mind and was going to PM you with it, since it's off the topic.
However I made the mistake so many of us unfortunately do! I assumed you were in the US. I do apologize for that. I've never lived in Sweden, so I have no idea what your risk of seizure is or even how much alprazolam costs at the regular pharmacy if your doctor prescribes it. With subsidized medical care, though, I am guessing it's even harder to get a "legit" script there than it is here. I can't believe I actually made that mistake myself when I so often complain about others doing so!
(If you ever should happen to travel to Poland, though, I can tell you that your doc visit as a Swedish citizen will be free and if you walk in to one of the "International" clinics and tell them you need a prescription for _____ because your's ran out, they will write it in an instant. Well, for benzos, anyway. I wouldn't take such a chance on, say, morphine. But I was getting 20 packs of 5mg valium all year for about one dollar.)
So all I can say is that Farmakos' Gador Alpraz 2mg is VERY good. Don't waste your money on the upjohn 1 mg xanax/tafil if you order. The best way to tell how they are doing now is to read the topic in feedback. If it seems like it's not current, trying "bumping" it and asking the same question. "Are there no posts because everyone is so content with their Farmakos products that they can't get up to post, or because nobody has received anything?"
I hope that helps. I'm also curious about the Chobet loraz myself. I was going to order it with my second order, but I didn't have enough money for it.

I don't mean to go off topic, I just wanted to say I never ment to say you WERE calling me a shill, and I think the reason a lot of people didn't receive orders was simply because of the HORRIBLE shipping he used in the past. Of course, that doesen't explain why so many received first and second orders and THEN got burned... Anyway, I haven't used Dr. A in quite some time and don't plan on it, I don't even really use IOP's anymore. For an American IOP's seem to be to much trouble, in my eyes at least. I don't like getting burned when I can simply state that I used to receive 90 2mg Xanax and show my papers, tell the Dr. I want to receive my order the next day, then just be home for a small time frame the next day.
