Whose the best net vitamin/supplement supplier? I've been using Puritans
Pride, but am looking for a better alternative. They don't answer
customer complaints.

I just buy the cheapest available at Wal*Mart, CVS, or RiteAid.
What kinds of complaints do you have about vitamins? They won't make
you Superman.

How can you tell the difference?
I buy on price. Some things from Costco, some from Trader Joe, some from
Rite-Aid/CVS and some from Puritan's Pride. I figure none of them is actually
shipping encapsulated floor sweepings.
And a 5-gallon drum of ascorbic acid powder from China. Nuisance. You have to
pick it up at a customs warehouse. It tastes like it's supposed to...

Used to live across the street from a fellow who worked for the
company that makes a lot of brands. He put it this way, there is no
assay of the finished products and a lot of the cheaper multivitamins
are primarily vitamin C, which is cheap, and the dregs of the B
vitamin vat, which stinks.
