People don't want to buy legal drugs from their UPS guy.
EDIT: i'm from outside the US, and after reading all the complains about delivery people throwing packages etc, i thought people don't trust delivery guys enough for medicine.
It appears i was wrong.
- pen2l 8y agoWhat exactly do you mean here? That you don't feel safe receiving your medicine being delivered last mile from some random UPS guy? If this is what you mean -- I get my medicine by mail order from CVS. I cannot imagine now having to go to CVS every single month I get my medicine.
- pkaye 8y agoI mail order my recurring prescription medicines from the hospital pharmacy all the time. No waiting in line and they give me a substantial discount.
- vkou 8y agoMy partner buys legal drugs from her pharmacy. Half the friggin time, there's some supply problem on the back-end, and she can't get her drugs in time. Anyone who could fix this problem will get her business in a heartbeat.
- reaperducer 8y agoDitto. I detest Walgreens because of its invasive marketing and spamming, but I use it because CVS in my area can't keep even basic meds in stock. I'll be among the first to switch to AmazonRx.
- thomaslangston 8y agoFor pills, I would expect they'll use USPS, not UPS. That's how I get my medicine. It comes in a shipping bag instead of a box or rigid envelope.
- mountainofdeath 8y agoIn many cases, insurance mandates that you use their contracted mail-order pharmacy when possible. In other cases, they recommend but don't require it since the fees are lower for everyone that way. This is in the USA.
