1. Reputable online stores
The first stopover for many people who want fillers is at online stores. Some sell
genuine stuff but a bigger percentage have counterfeit goods. Yet another category
will have legit products but sell them without a medical license which can land you
on the wrong side of the law if you do business with them. So, how do you determine
who to buy from?
Here are a few pointers:
– Contact information: You’ve probably come across companies that have
an online presence but lack real contact information. A genuine company
would have a phone number, a form to fill, and perhaps an online chat
where you can chat with real humans and not just robots.
– Product identification: Look out for the lot number/batch code that can
help trace the product. Things like manufacture and expiry dates should
also be a part of it.
– Physical location of the company: A little background check of the
company’s VAT or tax number should get you there.
– Reviews: Go beyond the self-praise of the company and seek to know what
other people are saying about it.
