Superb service, very fast delivery, as with most peptides, the effects are not acute, so can’t comment on that, but they are certainly sterile.
I have ordered multiple times since my first order, which I think says everything?

Ordered over a week ago and still not arrived. Emailed them twice to say it’s not arrived. Spoken with Royal Mail who say I have to get Oxford labs to report it, which I have done twice with no response as yet. Very disappointed as I have had great service from them previously.
