I would never buy supplements off Amazon - if they're trying to get you to accidentally buy melatonin for 10x the regular price, then they're probably also trying to get you to buy counterfeit melatonin for 1x the regular price.
- buu700 7y agoI buy all my supplements on Amazon (Subscribe & Save), but only brands I've validated against https://labdoor.com https://labdoor.com.
- bashinator 7y agoDoes that protect you from counterfeit products that duplicate the branding?
- buu700 7y agoNo, and that's a good point. I've lost a lot of faith in Amazon since it turned out that their Apple chargers were counterfeit (or were actually Apple but from a different country with different safety standards, or something).
- bashinator 7y agoI've definitely gotten counterfeit Advantage flea medication from Amazon. A) It didn't work, and B) the cats had no reaction to applying it (usually they hate it because it burns a little on the skin). Packaging was about perfect, and the applicators were filled with water. Now I only buy it from the local pet store, where I can make the safe assumption they're sourcing the stuff responsibly.
- buu700 7y agoWow, that's pretty bad. Guess I should also switch to another source sooner rather than later.
