Been ordering off the websites locally, such as Mass119, anabolic-korea and bulk09... but not only do they not carry anything truly useful, some have started cutting even the relatively harmless products.

Was informed by anabolic-korea that they will no longer be carrying Animal Paks by Universal... WTF? It's a multivitamin pack.

Orally-available test? Forget it.

For those familiar with AS and even PS, I don't mind taking some 17aa compounds so long as I can get them from a reliable source (not some cloned local copy of a name brand product), but gear is best.

On that note, PCT stuff, can that be found here? And for liver support? I've asked a number of the vitamin stores at the supermarkets and malls, but they've really got nothing when it comes to liver support. I'd love to be able to ask for it by brand name.

Yes. BB.com is fine for the OTC stuff, and it might be a good place to get the animal paks in future (BTW, what are the shipping charges like on, say, a 200,000 order?) but I was looking more specifically for d-bol and the like.

I was charged 18%.

If it's under a certain amount (around $120 USD) I think they do not charge any import taxes.

Does bb.com still carry PH's? I thought the FDA was coming down on some of those companies. If they do still carry PH's, what are the brand names? Because I see a lot of crap herbal stuff with similar names.

Or you can just eat healthy.

I admit I'm not a body builder, but what do you need that you cant get through food?

Most multivitamins just get wasted unless you eat a very lacking diet.
Still good luck, it can be annoying not getting what you are used to.

I'm not a performance-enhancing drug user, but I do know that what you can get from them is super-physiological levels of testosterone, growth hormone, insulin, etc. that you can't get from food.

Really though, this isn't a very helpful post to the OP, so why make it (unless you think he hasn't thought of eating healthy or really believe doing so is equal to performance-enhancing drugs)?

If there are additional postings promoting ways of circumventing legal requirements in Korea regarding drugs, this thread will no longer be available and severe sanctions will be issued.
