You know, your continued hatred and bashing of giga is making me think you have other 'agendas'.
Look through all the many threads here on giga, notice how most are very happy and that those who did have a seizure, were issued a refund or reship. NO ONE has ever lost money with giga. How many other sites here can say that.
I'm 4 for 4, and several friends had no problems either. One did have a seizure but was issued a quick refund.
You've made your point so many times that you're sounding like a stuck record. You hate giga then fine, so maybe post in the forums of the sites you prefer. geezus man 
I know those "love letters" are painful, but at least they are genuinely trying. They seem to happen on certain dates too. I don't know, wish I had the answer for that. But again, you won't lose anything other than time. I know that hurts too though.

I've lost money and I personally know people who've lost money.
I don't care what you guys think. I've personally had business dealings with this company before they were even open, and I've been doing business with in the wholesale of pharmacueticals since 1994. These guys have been around for a long time, doing business under different names every couple years. Look back and I bet you'll figure out who they were before they were gigapharma.com and then you can tell me why they closed the first site they had. But can you? I doubt it.
I don't know much about other IOPs' business practices, but I do know about this ones, and I've been to their Madrid office and warehouse. So you can either believe me or not.
Yes you will sometimes get products, but this IOP will ALWAYS be a hit or miss thing. For instance, the argentinian Dr is the best, I've probably received well over 100 envelopes, NEVER a seizure. 20 orders from Joseph in the .ph region NEVER a seizure. Couple more orders from other various .ph sites NEVER a seizure.
Pharma24.cc=Seizure
Gigapharma=Seizure
Spain=Seizure
This is the point you're not understanding, they will ALWAYS have problems because of their location and current heat from the US DEA and FDA. Again, you can say I'm a hater, but I've received from Gigapharma.
However, I can also get 300 Rivotril for $130 total, and 100 Valiums for $39, so you're wasting your time if you're depending on this IOP.
Take my word from it.
Oh, and no.......I will not tell my sources, look around on here, they're around.

For one I can say giga isn't out to rip anyone off. I had an order sent end of June and still haven't got it or a love letter. I emailed giga about it and what do they do? They say they are refunding me my money. Shady companies don't go and refund your money.

No one is calling them shady - just pain stooopid!
Seizure after seizure. Then they close to get the heat from the customers off their backs.

I am 5 for 5 with them and never had a seizure...at least they are upfront enough to issue refunds, a lot of higher priced IOP's will not do that, or reship either. All things considered, price, customer service, length of wait time, this place is one of the best IOP's I have ever dealt with..and that would be A LOT.

Calling them stoopid for seizures is how you put it stoopid. I have received from them many times. This is the first time I have had a problem. I really don't think there is much giga can do about customs and seizures. I don't put blame on their packaging either. Very discrete and well done for an IOP.
If they closed to "get the heat from the customers off their backs." why did the promptly return my email and offer a refund? Maybe they took the site down because packages from their Country are not getting through.

I myself received a love letter today as well from a June 28th shipment.
CAN WE FINALLY LEARN THAT THIS SITE, WHEN IT COME BACK ONLINE, SHOULD NOT BE SLAMMED WITH ORDERS, OR WE WILL ALL BE SCREWED? I don't think you people realize what this place does, and how it does it, or you wouldn't be ordering from them what so ever, especially with the HUGE rash of seizures in the past two months.
No way I will ever order again, found much cheaper, same quality meds from better places than Spain (hello, don't you guys realize Spain is a HUGE terrorist threat because of all the "cell" activity going on there).
I just don't understand what people don't understand about the politics of this country. If you order meds from a country during a time when that country is having or receiving attention for Terrorism, their mail is going to get looked through with a tooth and comb, and if you think thats impossible, you don't know how big the Customs staff really is at each port of entry do you?
People need to learn to order from the right sites, and order meds from the right countries, and leave spain alone, there's too much trouble there.
Well, I am 5 for 5 with this site, and in spite of being a self-confessed news junkie, was completely unaware that Spain is a terrorism threat. Perhaps you have it confused with SYRIA? Spain is the nice European country that is our ALLY. If you know as much as you profess to know about IOP's, you would know that Thailand carries a much higher seizure risk than ANY Euro country, which is where all of these 'other' IOP's are that you speak of, I believe. Or maybe PAKISTAN carries less seizure threat. Folks, as one that's been around the block a few times, I'd take my chances with a Euro IOP anyday than a Thai one. And could you kindly explain 'what this place does and how it does it'? Except have the integrity to refund people's money when there is a massive seizure issue?

Obviously you haven't been watching the news. Spain is having a lot of terrorism (what I mean is SPAIN is having the problems, not us), which makes Customs nervous.
Spain has had multiple "suicide bombings", public transportation bombings, etc. So maybe you should watch CNN a little closer, they have been getting a lot of terrorism directed towards them, for helping us.
Don't you people know how politics work?
And my one order from giga that made it through, WAS NOT PACKAGED LIKE THEY USED TO, IT CAME IN A HUGE ENVELOPE (WOULDN'T FIT IN THE MAILBOX), AND IT RATTLED AND WAS VERY OBVIOUS. Just so you know it was only 60 Tylenol3's. I wasn't ordering a large amount of anything.
I never said they were rip offs, however, they do convieniently come and go when they have problems, and it seems to be that every time they come "back" a rash of seizures happen, then they "go away". If you haven't seen this pattern then you haven't read the past and OLD threads on this board about Giga.

And you all can beat me to death about this issue, but fact of the matter is there are MUCH more RELIABLE IOPs out there than Giga.
Fact of the matter is this, about half the people receive, and about half don't, thats not a very good ratio. Especially considering they personally told me they made over 500 refunds since 6/15 meaning they've had over 500 packages seized.
Do you really think its safe to order from a company who was obviously watched very heavily during its "reopening" and almost all of its packages were seized during about a months time? Looks to me that orders made after July 4th, were fine, but almost EVERY package before that is missing, or a love letter has shown up. Does that not say anything?
I'd love to post a picture of the envelope with my 60 tylenol3's online so you could see just how poor and obvious they are being.

Fine. Then why don't you use 'them' and stay out of and stop your bs in the giga threads. Most of your comments make no sense, you don't back anything up. You hate them yet you still order from them. I believe we're all a bit tired of your samo samo.
Quote:

That is complete and total bs. Shame on you!  Prove it? All one has to do is read through the many threads to see all the positives. You spout all these things as your 'facts' and never show any proof. Most of your comments are as believable as me saying I'm Elvis Presley, and just left burger king.
I have no doubt some companies open back up under new names. medscorp is one I know of. And they HAVE ripped people off. Giga has not.
Yes giga has closed down several times and I've tried explaining why they have, several times. If one is too dense to understand then too bad so sad. They still refund, they just stop orders (close down) till *best if kept off the board*. Among other reasons. But it is for our benefit. That's the bottom line.
Now jesse, would you mind  Read over kandi's post about Spain. There's much more to all that. But spain is at least a friendly country to us.

Yes, do you? geez man take a chill pill. Spain is aware and cracking down on terrorists. In case you missed the last few months, they caught a few more just days ago. I'd go on but I know I'd be wasting my time. Probably already have since you've made your mind up.
peace -  Maybe just stick with the ones you like. That isn't so hard, is it. You've made your points, many many times. If something bad comes up about giga, I'll be among the first to get on them, once I know for sure. But, I don't see that happening. Yes, I've talked with them a lot too.

*I apologize if I do get a bit too defensive sometimes. I'm usually like that to those who do me and my friends well. And so far that has happened with giga. They have kept me abreast of some things too. 
But if one does me wrong, see one of my sites: www.trollhunters.com

I think you all are over-reacting. I never said once that I "hated" them. I never said they are a "scam".
Chill.
If you want to order from them fine, but I would advise not to, for very many reasons, and if you've been around long enough you should smell trouble with this place. EVEN WITH REFUNDS. Refunds are great, but they are not your meds delivered on time with accuracy and reliability for years.
www.farmakos.com has been going for years with only few interruptions for holidays here and there, but I'm sure they've not even been down as much as giga has just in the past six months.

we all have our favorites, and we've all been burned by someone. I keep all my stamps from IOPS (donno why, they're pretty), a lot are from spain, a lot from other places as well. i don't see any pattern, except the ones i got burned from, which used france! darn those french they're crooks!
anyway, i'm waiting for giga to return. i like 'em.

I think this thread is about as dead as Gigapharma. Take it from my experience, just forget about these guys for now, move on, and find a few other sources that cover what Giga was doing for you. If/when Giga pops back up the news will be on DB within no time, and if you were a previous customer you'll likely get an e-mail saying they're open under a new name. At least that's how it often happens. Giga reps themselves (afaik) said that they were down & wouldn't be back up under the same name, so i'd not count on seeing to many more Gigapharma threads. I know I got my refunds from them and have no beef with 'em. I've found cheaper sources which have now delivered (one in 7 days, yipee!) so i've gotten on with life. This is the nature of the IOP beast. Nothing good lasts forever... nobody lasts forever.

Good Post. They had a good service while it lasted, the deprancol they offered suited my needs great. I Paid 25 for 20 and they were worth it. Strong and efferctive, great alternative to Hydro. Now who offers fasr shiipping, fair prices and products like Giga did? Listover please check your PMS becuase you wrote that you hpound a good IOP. I agree posting on the free board can blow good med sources, even the ViP board. Have a good day to all
