Domain Name Information
Checking the domain records relating to this pharmacy shows us that they have used a Pakistani registration service and that they have only been online since January this year.
Short domain registrations pose more of a potential risk to customers than stores which have a long history.
The person or organization which registered this domain has chosen to hide their details using a privacy service. This is something else which isn’t ideal to discover and is often associated with scam pharmacies.
Mirror Pharmacies
When visiting this store for the first time, a very obvious issue is apparent to us. We have seen this pharmacy site before despite not going to the domain name previously. This is because there are a number of copies of this site online and selling meds.
This is a bad thing to find and not what you would expect to discover from a reputable business. Just a few of the mirror sites we are aware of:
■ tabstore-online.com
■ rxshop-24-online.com
■ frepillsonline.com
All of these other pharmacies use different site logos but that is where the differences end. They offer the same products and use the same content to sell their products.
Business Contact Details
As with the other mirror stores, this site provides no contact information about the business which is behind the store or where they are located. This leaves us without any clear idea of which country they are operating from. We are left to fall back on the indication in the domain name record that shows a link to Pakistan.
Is this pharmacy business really operated from Pakistan? And if it isn’t, why would they use a Pakistan domain registrar? It seems most probable that the owner is in Pakistan which is known to have a problem with producing counterfeit and fake medication.
Regulatory Approvals
The pharmacy is very lacking when it comes to regulatory seals. This is normally something which drugstores like to show to their customers because it improves their credibility and gets them more sales. Since they don’t display any accreditation, it means they don’t have any and are operating in a potentially unsafe way.
Pills Sold by this Pharmacy
This pharmacy sells a mixture of brand and generic pills. While they offer access to a fairly reasonable range of products, the main focus of the store appears to be towards the selling of men’s health drugs. This means that the front page of the store is filled with this type of meds, with them even giving away men’s health pills with orders.
The prices we find here are very low and while that would normally seem to be a good thing, it isn’t necessarily the case with this site. Bearing in mind the link to Pakistan and everything that comes with it, this raises the chances of the pills being sold to be of dubious quality and perhaps counterfeit.
Low-quality meds are a real issue which causes problems to people’s health the world over, and something which you need to be on your guard for when shopping online. It seems highly probable that this pharmacy offers low-quality and fake pills to its customers.
Payment and Shipping
When you go to place your order and enter your contact information they transport you to a different website. This other site will take your address details and give you your payment options:
■ Diner Club
■ JCB
■ E-check
■ Bitcoin
Shipping is a choice between the more expensive courier delivery or airmail. Courier delivery has the advantage of a tracking number, is expected to take up to 9 days and will cost you $30. Airmail is a $10 option with delivery in two to three business weeks.
BuyBestMeds.com Reviews
A page full of very positive BuyBestMeds.com reviews can be found within this site. This is never going to be the most impartial of places to get customer feedback on a pharmacy. Store owners are likely to not post anything negative, but it can be worse than that. And that is what we find here, the feedback on this page is fake.
We can be certain that these are fake customer testimonials because they can also be found on the other mirror stores. Not only that, but the dates given for these comments are all at least a year before this site was created.
Conclusion
There is little doubt that this is a pharmacy that you should avoid. They lack any sign of regulatory approval, have links to a country known for fake meds and are a mirror site of other pharmacies. We award this drugstore just 20% of trust.
