Where do most of the people taking/planning on taking steroids aquire them? I know most have a dealer at their gyms or a friend of a friend etc. I've also heard a lot of people obtain them through the internet. Anyone know how legit those claims would be? I've never used any before and at times I am torn on wanting too. I started working out again in October after stopping for roughly two years due to injury. I've put on about 40 lbs since then which puts me basically back up to my old weight before I was hurt. I was 140-145 and now I'm around 180ish and that was with strict diet and excercise for 4 months and then just farting around due to travel and other stuff taking too much of my time. I am back to bulking again and hopefully by the time my 90 days are up I'll be hovering around 200 lbs though I have to bust ass since my metabolism is so high. Ok enough about me ;p

I'm not asking for links or names lol and it's pretty obvious people are getting them from somewhere. I guess I didn't make it clear before. I am wondering if people have gotten them through the web before? I can go get them from random guy A at my gym np or through buddies but I have heard and seen people say they order them through the web and have them shipped in. I don't see how that is possible and I'm curious if people here have done it before. If people were that worried about exposing themselves it's a little late.

I think I trust internet stuff more than local, but supposedly it should be the other way around. I'd worry more about local stuff coming back on me than internet, but it is all a risk. Hang out on gear boards, there are even pay boards that have lists (I know only of 1 for sure that is trustworthy, all member referals, and hardly anyone ever gets added, or removed).

Thank you. I don't care for names or links. I was just wondering if people did indeed order through the net.

Basic rules of internet sources, SPAM is SPAM, delete it. Websites that look wide out in the open, probably are fakes or possible sting operations. Get reference checks, and always be suspicious. Some forums now have secure reference checks where mods will say yay/nay/dont know, and nobody else can read your posts in said forum, the other methods are just requesting a ref check and posting your email address (secure email, not Ziplip, not Hotmail etc). The problem with that is you will get possible bad ref checks (sometimes from the supposed supplier themselves), or will get spam for "hey buddy, here is someone I use," so you have to use your brain and keep the money in the pocket until you feel sure of who your dealing with.
I still feel its the best way though, you just have to be smart about it.

well the nets a good place for gear and i trust it alot more than any local idiot. But like anything you have to become a very trusted person before any one is willing to share info on sources. A good sorce doesnt find u u find them.........

No local gym business. Loose lips sink ships. If they go down, you can bet on them singing like a bird.

Exactly, you can go down off the net but I really think the gym is alot more risk, I know some out there disagree but that is how I see it.
Reference checks are alot easier for most on the net, try finding 10 people in the gym "hey, did you buy gear off Robert? Is it good shit? How are his prices?"
I also think with precaution you are much less likely to get caught through a shipped package, although of course it can and has happened. Lots of sources going down right now, and lots of users getting some heat too.
Dai Shin.. If you take my advice, I say you build a circle of trust, yo stick around, you read, you learn, and after a while somebody will kind of let you in the big boy league..
I started wondering and just as skeptical as you are. Eventually, I paid my due, and NOW I have a nice circle, I can go to for advice, for recommendation, and their input on who is in for real, and who is just wasting my time.
my 2 cents

and Lee u can use hushmail, operamail.. there are several out there
Posted by: Mudge
Yes, Hushmail and Cyber-Rights are both based on the "Hush" engine, Ziplip does not mask IPs anymore so its a risk.
