How long to wait before leaving a negative review for a top 5 source? No reply to emails in 14 days+
Hi, new account but long time user. I have never had a problem so I never made an account previously.
I recently tried a new source with great recommendations from my local gym bros. I know at least 10 guys on this sources gear and never heard a problem. For context, none of the other guys run TE, they run TC. I ordered Test.E (300mg/ml) and it's absolutely the most painful stuff I have ever used in my 20 years running gear. Yes I read the sticky about PIP, I have done all of those recommendations short of adding sterile oil to the vial. Also for context, I am very confident in my ability to inject. I've also had multiple other people (RNs, & MD) inject this gear into me and the outcome is the same. I am just trying to cruise on about 0.75-1ml.
1ml in the delts is impossible. My arm would have a lump the size of a racket ball, it would be so painful I wouldn't want to move it, the swelling, warmth and redness definitely would indicate an infection. Same with glutes & quads.
I've used 5 injections, all in different sites, 2 different bottles and I'm just done with this garbage. I've run a lot of different compounds and various dosages over 20 years+.
I emailed the source, from multiple accounts including the specific email servers he says to use. No reply. It's been 14 days on one email and 5 days on the other.
I plan to write a detailed review and ding the gear to a 1 star but give him 5* on shipping. I'm not trying to reverse scam for $100 in gear, I literally don't even want anything in return. I'm simply trying to help other people avoid what I am experiencing right now. I've lost far far far more than that many times on stuff that never arrived before finding legit sources(back when sites like eroids didn't exist!) .
How much longer should I wait before reviewing?
EDIT: Between now and when I got home the source wrote me back. I'm really glad I didn't rage and negative review him. He's sending me a replacement 4 vials, different compound of Test C. He stated it was overdosed (I believe it, I was horny af vs what my baseline is on a TRT dose) I don't mind stuff being over dosed but it does kind of screw up TRT for some of us! I guess the alternative is worse. I will update after I get the new gear and inject it.

You could probably PM someone here you feel comfortable with and at least discuss the source first without putting it publicly if you’re that fearful of retaliation.
Bought two vials of test from a “gym bro” it looked oddly green, something was off, pinned three weeks worth of sustanon 350, tasted half a ML, it was extra virgin olive oil, from there on out I depend and rely on myself to source the best gear.
So you get 4 more free bottles of the same exact stuff and you are gay and giddy now lol? Wouldnt you want to inject something else? Wouldnt trying the test c instead be more reasonable?
I forgot to say four replacement bottles of Test C. I wouldn't use the same stuff again TBH, not for a while.
Ill always mix anything more than 250mg anyway so i never felt it off his Test. Even if its just a 1/2cc of something. Don't even need to be strong enough to compliment the test but more for dilution purposes . ½cc deca ½cc eq or even ½cc of grapeseed oil from etsy
Ok then i apologize. It sounded like you so pissed then when you got another 4 you were ok with everything even the pain lol
Fuck no! I gave this stuff to my buddy, he shot 1 injection and text me WTF BRO!!! I said throw it away!!
Not to put it in the review area, not yet at least, but if you’re having a reaction like that to the gear you’re doing the forum a disservice by not letting anyone know where it’s from. The key point about what we’re doing here is looking out for each others safety, if it’s simply a bad batch, you could save a lot of people from a lot of racquetball sized lumps if you were to disclose where it came from. There won’t be any hard feelings and the source may not even know for a few days. Everyone takes vacations.
My pro level buddy is going to snag a bottle from me and give himself a mL and report back to me sometime in the near future. We were talking about it. I will post in my final review what he says and what my original review of the product is.
Have you commented on his si page requesting help, reading through to see if anyone else has had the same situation.
You are well within an acceptable time frame to write a review. Now you have joined eroids send him a friend request, when he accepts you can send PM's back and forth. I take it you have the order # it will probably be the first thing he will ask of you.
Have you sent a message to the site manager/owner on eroids? Private message can handle a lot. Emails are not always reliable, you see multiple complaints on multiple sources. They all use third world countries as servers. Proton mail normally gets it done. I’d send a friend request to the rep here and let them know what you are dealing with. Any source worth a damn will make you whole again.
48-72 hours is acceptable email response times from any sources I've had the experience of dealing with, I've never had one take longer than that...
If your email regarding that issue is 14 days unanswered then I think you've given plenty time, go drop a review.
Just make sure you're truthful and have receipts, sources will always come back with "Why didn't you email or PM us about this before going public" and other gaslighting responses trying to make you feel bad about being honest.
Don't be scared to give less than 5*, your review is YOUR experience, doesn't matter how pretty the packaging or how quick it was delivered if the gear is unusable.
I'm going to give the source a few more days on email. I am not in a hurry, I grabbed a shot from a friend yesterday with known good gear. Zero issues as of now, and frankly if I haven't had an issue yet, I wont.
Def have saved emails and won't be gaslighted into anything other than an honest review. I'm even going to make a video of myself injecting something insane like extreme hot sauce into the open and unused vials to prove I am not trying to scam him. I simply can't use this stuff.
anvilHave you fr the source here and reached out? Or gone on their source thread and posted a request for help? I would definitely make contact before leaving a negative review, because most respectable sources here are able to correct issues.
As I said in my above comment, I have reached out via multiple emails. I get gmail might not go through so I made a proton account and still got nothing. I will try to PM him on here before I leave a negative review, but I do want people to be aware the gear is bad. It needs to be throw away IMHO.
anvilI have no doubt, just that fact you asked before doing says it all. The best is to cover all bases first because as Walt stated above people will come at you. That shouldn't stop you and wouldn't stop me but just wanted to let you know because its the first reply you are going to get is what did you do about it.
