FriendsMD - fast but short
      #216588 - 01/19/05 01:34 PM

I ordered from FriendsMD on 1/17 and received my order today (1/19). The pills themselves seem okay (yellow Watson 853's) but the order was 18 short. 1 or 2 short I could accept, due to human error or scale calibration issues, depending on whether they count or measure, but 18 seems excessive. I've contacted their CS and will post back with the results.

Just an FYI for others considering them.

Ouch ,That is crazy and so uncalled for.I think it is so wrong of these scammers to do this to us.They advertise there meds and quantity and that is waht we should get!!I know others are gonna say that is why you use a rop instaed of nrop and this would not happen.I'm working on that but for those who do not then they have no choice but use these people.AND they do it because they know they can get away with it and do not care as long as they get our money.It seems like every nrop i have read about has shorted people.

That NROP "family" Keeps Screwing People [Re: k004]
      #216740 - 01/19/05 09:25 PM

I stopped using that ever-changing family or 2 of NROP's that change from week to week and month to month. I believe that there are at least 2 "families" of these websites and maybe a few smaller families, or pairs of websites that operate similarly (i.e. same drs, page layout, shipping carriers, or methods of payment accepted, etc.)

I can't even keep track of which ones are related to which, but the one "family" started off as rxhotdeals and then morphed a bunch of times after that (skyrx, rxgooddeals, rxbetterdeals) spawning off some of the current ones I assume. After I shelled out $200 to one of these outfits, only to be sent #50 instead of $60, I got P.O.'ed enough to avoid them like the plague. One (or both) of these 'families' of sites keeps screwing people left and right and people keep rolling the dice and letting them do it. They don't answer the phones and you get nowhere after you are shorted that kind of sucks.

Their [censored] motivated me to get my records intact so I wouldn't have to use them any more. I would advise people to do the same, but I know everyone's situation is different. Nothing makes me more sick personally than getting ripped off by people who know full well that they are doing this on purpose to many people, knowing full well that they will change their name and website before anyone has a chance to catch up with them.

It sucks that their mobility, which is useful as far as them possibly avoiding scrutiny for possibly not adhering to the laws of internet prescribing that do exist, is also the same mobility which helps them avoid the customers who they screw over without consequence. They are in it for the quick buck, and I guess that knowing they can screw someone out of $30-$40 on a $200 order,they will often do what they can, and since they can, they do this to some people.

But not to everyone, because then maybe people will stop ordering, but just enough to continue to get people to order from them. You can read about these 'shorts' 100 times and would still keep ordering from these people, until you got screwed I bet. You would have just thoiught it was being exaggerated, or "wouldn't happen to me"... I felt that way too until I got screwed 10 pills.

I won't say that I will never order from these fly-by-night NROPs, but I will do everything possible to not have to run out of meds and need one, and even then I would take caution.

I just wanted to vent after reading about all these people getting screwed over, but they keep coming back for more. Kinda like when a girlfriend finds her guy screwing around with another woman, but shrugs it off and stays with him because "she still loves him", although she fully expects him to do it again...

Anyway, avoid these guys if you can...and if you can't, try some of the newer borderline NROPs like NHRG, which asks for minimal records, and whose prices are less than the NROPs.

They should list a thread where you can list these fly-by-night OPS and how much you were shorted by each one. That would point the finger at the bad ones a lot quicker than having to read through a bunch of threads and a bunch of posts.....

Thanks for listening. These places just get under my skin, the way that some of them do things.

Good luck in the new year....and if you have been screwed by these clowns, YOU ARE NOT ALONE !!!

Just wanted to post an update. I left FriendsMD messages via their "Live Help" feature (which is, of course, never live) and sent an email to the address that the order confirmation came from. Via another thread I found out the phone number of the pharmacy and called them -- a very friendly and professional-sounding lady told me she would have someone call me back. I never received any call or email in reply, but today UPS delivered a Ground package with the missing pills in it! So that's good, but hopefully I'll never again end up in an emergency situation and have to use one of these NROPs again!
