How to tell vendor pills fake

[Fiery Lass]

So I just received what I'm quite certain is fake rit from a Mexican vendor (their either fake or incredibly weak but either way I experienced nothing from the 10mg I took and I haven't taken meds in a month!) Not sure how I should approach vendor now. Do I ask for refund, let it go ask for a discount? This would be a first for me getting bunk

Has anyone else had bad experience with Mex Rita's?

Haven't heard of members receiving fake ones, but I do hear that a lot of people don't like the generic ones and will only buy the name brand.

You can try and offer to return the unused ones and say they don't work for you can you please exchange them and see what happens.

Thanks that's very helpful I am going to try that

Just a tip for everyone

I know it's frustrating to get bunk, but always be nice and respectful when letting the vendor know.  It is very possible this is news to them also and they may be just as upset as the purchaser.

@bud you are definitely right I've been treading lightly

I have not run across fakes of those.  In my mind it's not worth it for anyone to take the time to fake those.  When I can, I get the generics and they are very weak. Usually I have to take 2 of the 10 mg white A/B.  For much cheaper, I order some raspberry ketone with green tea extract and caffeine pills and they keep me awake and work better.  I don't have ADHD, though, diagnosed.  They are just enough to keep me awake, but I can sleep even after having one in the evening which doesn't happen with name brand or A$$ies.  You would need a test to tell for sure what they are and it's even possible they are fake.  Ask to exchange for a lesser quantity of name brand and see what you think about that.  Do the ones you have leave powder residue if you put them on a desk or table?  Is the imprint readable and equally stamped when look at under a strong light and magnifying glass?   I tried to look and see if I have one to look at imprint for you, but I am out.  I hope you get it cleared up.

@Handsley thank you that is helpful! I'm used to taking addy it helps me stay focused but never enough of them around so I tried the generic Rita.. you are right it's just they are incredibly weak I had to resort to 3 to get through spurt of the day and it was only at 3 I noticed a small difference..I was debating ordering the brand to give it a try but I don't want to waste more money, do you think the brand makes a big enough difference that it's worth it?

If you read the threads (it takes awhile) almost every genre of vendor on here (US, email, mex, etc) has sold fake pills to someone at some point.  There are a million on the market,  it is part of the game.   The only vendor (at least as it appears on boards) that always sells real pharmaceuticals is Starlite. 

Here is a quote from a user in the quality thread who got mexican Ritas with the psicofarma logo.  "Bad news guys/gals: Rita's tested negative for expected ingredient. No color at all.  Buy safe and be careful! Do not take anything that you are unsure about! " 

Mex and other vendors sell a ton of meds  (oxy, xan, etc)  supposedly made by Psicofarma,  so  - the post above has pretty significant implications IMO

Thank you @Royxanne.  I didn't read that one, but good to know.  So now I know for sure that is one place I can save donations for something else.

@Fiery Lass.  I know I've done a donation comparison, and although I like the small effect of having a 10 generic because I've had heart problems in the past and I want to be careful and they give a little boost, the comparison led me to believe it was not worth it to donate for that many. If I have to take 2, I might as well go brand name, but I don't think I ever did.  For what I'm using them for, Addies are too expensive. The caffeine, green tea extract, rasberry ones help me much better in that department.  Again, I use them to stay awake, not to focus or ADHD.  When I hit the afternoon doldrums, when someone else might want a strong espresso, I take one from Ama$zon that I mentioned.  You can message me if you want the exact brand.  a$$ies are so much better, though.  If I needed them, I would donate to those.

is it Tradea Pbarmaceuticals? What is the imprint on the pills? I also have concerns with my 10mg ir ritz so i'm wondering if we have the same ones.
