Self-Introduction of 1-pharm.com
1-pharm.com is a world famous online pharmacy that is having more than one million of happy customers, they are offering fast delivery and a company offering low prices for medications, as they claim, the best prices on the web. There’s information on their site suggesting that the pharmacy has acquired a big popularity because they are having a high trustworthy level due to their security, privacy, low prices, high assortment and because they have started to operate back in 2001 which means this is a 17 years old pharmacy. They claim to have customers all over the world meaning that regardless where you live, you would most likely find this pharmacy helpful in getting your medicines. This is a company which is offering world wide delivery with 100% delivery guarantee policy, offering both generic and branded medications so people are free to choose their preferred medications. The pharmacy claims to be all reliable with multiple quality certificates claiming to be CIPA and MIPA approved – we’re going to check if that’s true in this review. They are also claiming to have a secure shopping environment since they are verified by VISA. All of which we are going to check later. There is no information on their website suggesting where they are located, but on the copyright there’s “Canadian Pharmacy Ltd.” which makes me think they are a Canadian pharmacy. Their priority mission is their customers state of health and speedy delivery which I find to be really good, of course, in case that’s true. Overall, the company offers only high quality medications throughout the world for cheap prices with high trustworthiness and effectiveness. But until I’m going to review this company, so far, all of these remains only claims.
Assortment Diversity
I earlier mentioned the fact that 1-pharm.com is offering a wide selection of medications, or at least that’s what they are claiming. Checking this myself I found their *catalog* of drugs and by checking that catalog it seems to me they are having a lot of medications for various health conditions and issues. The catalog of drugs on their site looks like this:
As much as we can see, there are the following drug categories that we might find on their site: erectile dysfunction, allergies, antifungal, antiviral, antibiotics, anxiety, arthritis, asthma, birth control, blood pressure, cholesterol lowering, depression, diabetes, hair loss, heart disease, herbals, man’s health, muscle relaxants, other, pain relief, skincare, sleep aid, quit smoking, weight loss, woman’s health. Each and all of the drugs that we are going to find on their site are all genuine, safe to take, high quality and FDA approved drugs that are manufactured only by well known manufacturers.
Most of the drugs found in their bestsellers category seem to be ED medications – the types of drugs I’m going to pay more attention to. So, checking their ED medications I found out they are offering a really wide selection of such drugs. There are generics and there are brands as well.
There are a lot of different drugs either such as: Cialis Professional, Viagra Super Active, Extra Super Viagra, Cialis Extra Dosage, Cialis Soft, Viagra Soft, Kamagra, Cipro, Cialis Super Active, Extra Super Cialis, Female Viagra, Sildalis, and many others. I also checked a bit through other categories of medications and there seem to be many other drugs as well.
I did not found what’s the overall number of items found in their drugstores, nevertheless, they are offering brand medications, generic medications, prescription drugs and OTC drugs all for a lot of health conditions. Since there’s such a high chance that you would find whatever you need to improve your health conditions, my rate is going to be 5 stars for the unit.
Prices Affordability
As I said earlier, the pharmacy offers branded medications but they are also offering generic drugs. Usually, generic drugs are having the exact same ingredient as the original drug, only the name is different and that’s why, it is a much cheaper drug. That’s why often, people tend to search for generics – less expensive medications. As I said it earlier, the pharmacy is claiming to offer the best prices on the web the prices here most affordable compared to other online pharmacies.
But I wanted to check if that’s true myself, of course, and I’ve been searching for prices of drugs that I’m familiar with – medications from Erectile Dysfunction category. Talking about the branded medications I found out that their lowest prices for pill is as following: Brand Viagra 2.56 USD; Brand Levitra 3.71 USD per pill and Brand Cialis – 3.09 USD per pill. To be honest, these are some really really good prices taking in consideration they are offering brand medications.
I then started to search for prices for generic medications and there I found out that generic Viagra is priced with only 0.27 USD per pill, but that’s if you’re going to get 360 pills of 25 mg pill. Purchasing a normal dosage of 50 mg and a normal quantity of 90 pills that would cost you 0.94 USD per pill which is an amazing price as well.
Talking about the next generic drug called Cialis, you can get it for only 0.68 USD per pill but that’s if you would get 360 pills and 2.5 mg a pill. If you get 90 pills of 20 mg Cialis that would be 1.50 USD per pill which is still a very good price.
Lastly – generic Levitra lowest price is 1 USD if you get 360 pills and 10 mg per pill. But if you wish to get 90 pills and 20 mg per pill this would cost you 1.87 USD per pill which, as the previously 2 other drugs – that’s a really good price.
Since the drug prices at this online pharmacy seem to be really attractive I am going to rate them with a 5 star rating as to my opinion they really deserve it as it is really hard to find better prices online.
Shipping Options
According to the information on their website, this company is providing world wide shipping which means that everyone is able to order from this pharmacy. There are 2 shipping options available to people which they can choose to get their medications.
First one is regular airmail shipping which is having a delivery time of anywhere between 2 to 4 weeks and it has a fee of 9.95 USD but this option is not having a tracking option.
The second shipping option is EMS which has a higher shipping fee of 19.95 USD, however the waiting period is shorter – 3 to 9 days and this option does comes with a tracking.
The pharmacy is claiming that people can get free shipping option in case they are going to purchase more than 200 USD.
All in all, my overall rating is 3 out of 5 for the shipping option since there is no overnight shipping option and because 200 USD is quite a lot to get free shipping option.
Payment Options
This online pharmacy is accepting credit cards such as Visa and Master Card, this is being confirmed by the icons which I found on their website looking like this.
I went on their checkout page to check if they are offering any other payment methods online and unfortunately, I was not able to find any other payment options. Accepting famous credit cards is good, but I think they should add other payment options. Until then, I rate them with 2 stars here.
Technical Characteristics
Google Page Speed about Website Loading
Checking the technical characteristics of the online pharmacy is really important to my opinion. Without a good loading page speed, people might experience delays in their search of drugs or attempt to purchase them – that can be really annoying and time consuming experience. Here’s the information I got there about 1-pharm.com.
As much as we can see, the Page Speed for both Mobile or Desktop versions are being marked as unavailable which usually means there is a high chance that the page speed is not good. as much as we can see, the optimization isn’t really good either. While it is medium for mobile version which is not so good, it is low for desktop version which can be really annoying.
Since there is a high chance that the customers will wait for some time before the site’s pages would load and since the optimization is not as good my rating goes with 1 point.
Mobile Version
A mobile version for a website is really important and it gets more important day by day. That’s because people tend to purchase their medications using their smartphones and having a mobile version for a website that’s much more convenient for the customers. Having a mobile version people can easily order online not only from their PC but from their phones too. Here’s the message I’ve got searching for it.
Since the *page cannot be reached* there are 2 reasons why this happened. Either the pharmacy simply does not have a mobile version of this website or there are some technical issues that prevented google robots to check it out. Using my own smartphone it makes me think that they do have a mobile version for this pharmacy as the information doesn’t seem too hard to read and the images seem to be properly displayed on the site. My rate here is 4 stars.
Is the Connection Secure on 1-Pharm.com?
In order to check if any website is having a secure connection you can check it by entering the website – as soon as you do it, check for a green lock near the address bar. If there isn’t one it means that the website does not have a secure connection.
As we can see in the picture, the green lock isn’t there. Instead, I found out that the connection is getting secure only when you’re getting redirected on the billing page. Other than that – the connection is not secure. On the billing page, they are using a 256 bit SSL encryption. This is the reason why I am going to rate this online pharmacy with 3 stars only.
Antivirus Presence
By searching for an antivirus on their website, I did have found out that they are having an icon suggesting that they are McAfee secured.
Having an antivirus software means that you can safely browse the site without the risk that you would get an antivirus in your personal computer stealing your personal data. The problem is – except for that icon which is not clickable there’s nothing else suggesting they are having an antivirus. Simply having an icon on the site is definitely not enough as we need some proof of it being true. My rate is 1 point.
How to Make an Order Online?
It seems that it is very and very easy to get medications from 1-pharm.com since the ordering procedure is very simplified. People are not being required to register on the site in for ordering and that’s really good. I often find online pharmacies which are requesting the customers to register on the site so they would be allowed to order.
Obviously, for ordering a drug you should specify which one. You can find your needed medication either using the catalog of drugs depending on the condition that you’re having, but you can also search for it using the search function and lastly, you’re also able to search by the letter of the drug.
After you have found your needed medication you should select your preferred dosage and the quantity. After choosing them click on *add to cart* looking like this.
You’re then on your shopping cart where you can review your product, you can select free bonus if you have one, select the shipping option, enter the coupon code if you have one and see your order sum. You should then click *checkout*. Here you’re on your last step. You should enter the payment information, the billing address and click on next where you’re redirected to step 2. Only after second step you can confirm your order.
All in all, the ordering procedure is pretty easy and that is why my mark for the unit is 4 stars.
Is 1-Pharm.com Legit and Safe?
Rating on ScamAdviser.com
ScamAdviser.com is an engine which can help us determine if a website is safe or not and according to the information that I found there, 1-pharm.com unfortunately, is not safe at all. Scamadviser.com rated it with 0% trust meaning there’s a high risk purchasing and browsing from this site. They claim that the site is having a low trust rating, therefore the site may not be safe to use. According to the information on scamadviser.com, there are several reasons why they rated it like that. Domain age is 178 days unlike 17 years as claimed on the site. plus to that, bad review detected, the owner of the site tries to hide their identity, a malware report has been detected for the site, possible related to high risk countries as well as high number of suspicious websites on the server as well.
Taking in consideration the information I found on scamadviser.com, I cannot give this online pharmacy anything else more than 1 star for this unit.
Prescription Requirements
I’ve been searching for information if this online pharmacy is asking for a valid prescription and according to the information they have shared, the pharmacy does not actually ask for a valid prescription. They only ask to consult a health care provider before taking a drug but they do not ask for a prescription. Not asking for a prescription is a sign of illegal activity of the pharmacy.
Since they are not asking for a valid prescription, I am not able to rate this unit with anything else more than just 1 star.
LegitScript.com about 1-pharm.com Legitimacy Status
I checked the information on legitscript.com to find out what’s the legitimacy status of 1-pharm.com and exactly as with the information I got on scamadviser.com – I got really disappointed. This online pharmacy has got the status of rogue.
This means that the pharmacy might easily steal your money without sending you anything or sending counterfeit products. Since the risks of such things to happen are so high, my mark here is 1 star.
Verification Certificates
As I have mentioned this earlier in my review, 1-pharm.com is claiming to be CIPA and MIPA approved. They are also claiming to have FDA approved meds, secured by VeriSign and Verified by Visa.
Unfortunately, I was not able to click on either of those icons and that’s why I had to search for this information myself. Cipa.com is the official Canadian International Pharmacy Association where we can check if a site is being approved or not. unfortunately, I found this to be a lie.
Since those quality certificates turned out to be a lie, I am going to rate this unit with 1 star.
1-Pharm.com Reviews
Reviews on 1-Pharm.com
Searching for the reviews on their own website I have found out there are quite some good number of reviews on their specifically designed page – “Testimonials”. Those reviews are claimed to be written by real people and all of those reviews are only positive, suggesting that this site is worth using.
My rate for this unit is 1 star. You may ask why I rated with 1 star when there are customer reviews and they are all positive but that’s because those customer reviews are everywhere else on a lot of different pharmacies. I am all sure that they are fake – copied from other pharmacies, that’s why we can’t have trust in them.
1-Pharm.com Reviews on Third-Party Websites
By searching for customer reviews on third party websites (reviews which are much more trustworthy since the pharmacy’s administrators can’t control them) I have found 9 different reviews. All of them written on trustpilot.com. the problem is – 8 of them rated them with 1 star and only one rated them with 3 stars.
That’s an extremely low indicator of trustworthiness. Here is an example of what kind of review I found about this online pharmacy:
It is obvious that with such customer reviews I am going to rate this unit with 1 star!
1-pharm.com Coupon Codes
I have already mentioned in my review that they are having a special field upon checking out where people can insert a coupon code and get a discount in case they have a coupon code. The problem is that there does not seem to be any coupon codes anywhere. Maybe they are only offering seasonal codes, or maybe codes to people who already ordered or maybe they don’t have any codes at all and they only want to attract people. I can’t be sure.
But I can talk about those things they are offering. The pharmacy claims to offer free bonus pills with every order and it doesn’t matter what or how much you’re purchasing. You are going to get at least 2 pills of either Viagra, Cialis or Levitra pills. But you might get more if you purchase more.
People are also able to get free shipping option as I have earlier said in my review
The last thing that I can mention here is the fact that this pharmacy is having a special offer as well.
For all of this, I think the pharmacy well deserves a rate of 4 stars, I would rate it more if I would find a coupon somewhere.
Customer Support Service
“Contact Us” Section
The contact section is nearly empty at all. I have found out there are 2 phone numbers listed on their website (one US and one UK) which you can find as soon as you enter the site but that’s pretty much it except for the contact form on the “contact us” page.
It seems people are not able to talk with the pharmacy’s customer support service through other methods than calling or writing through contact form. To my opinion, a lot of information is missing and that’s why I can’t rate this pharmacy’s contact section with more than 2 points.
Customer Support Service
Getting no response from the pharmacy when writing them can be really annoying and might make me think they are scammers. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what happened. I never called them, but I did wrote them by using the contact form on their site and I waited for a long time and yet, no response.
I simply cannot have trust in an online pharmacy that is not responding to customers’ questions making me think that they are, indeed, scammers. Unfortunately, the pharmacy is receiving only 1 point for the customer support service.
Conclusion: Bad Reviews, No Legitimacy, No Trustworthiness
1-pharm.com is an online pharmacy claiming to be world famous, all trustworthy, good prices, special offers and a lot of happy customers. Unfortunately, all of this seem to be a big fat lie. This pharmacy is having a lot of drawbacks and negative points making me recommend people to actually stay away from them.
The pharmacy has only negative reviews suggesting they are scammers. Scamadviser.com has 0% trust; legit script offered rogue status; the customer support service is non existent; no antivirus and no security on the site.
The overall image of this pharmacy is really bad. They might have wide selection of drugs with good prices and good special offers, but this might be only to attract customers and then to scam them out. Or at least the risk this being true are too high. I personally, don’t recommend ordering here as the risks are too high but everyone is free to decide for themselves.
