Had a quick look at them and compared a few products with who I currently use (iHerb).

They don't seem to ship internationally, and out of the 4 products I checked, all were more expensive at SuperSuppliments, with one being more than twice the price (before the 15% off). "Source Naturals, Inosine, 500 mg, 60 Tablets" was 10.92 at iHerb and $22.19 at SuperSupplements. The others I checked were closer, but still cheaper at iHerb. :sad: But still handy if you live near a store and were running short of something.

Yes, I often find Vitacost to be less expensive as well.

$9.99 at Vitacost.

I don't know what their international shipping policies are though.

By the way, the $22.19 was for the 120 count size, not the 60 count.

:oops: my mistake on the count.

I checked out Vitacost against what I normally order from iHerb, and some things were slightly cheaper, and others were slightly more expensive.

I also noted that Vitacost have their own brand on many products, which were significantly cheaper per mg dose as compared to the "big names". Is there any info on the quality of their own branded products?

With iHerb, if I order on the Sunday, I can usually pick it up from the couriers on the following weekend; since I am not home to collect the parcel. I think I will give Vitacost a go on my next order, as it has some different and interesting products. for example, their own brand includes a CoQ10 with all eight vitamin E's. :mrgreen: Their international shipping uses the same company, but has a different level of service in regards to tracking. :? and their average delivery time to aus seems high, but is probably for less central locations than Sydney. definitely worth a try. Thanks

My family takes several of Vitacost's branded supplements. All of the labels say that they are "Manufactured for Vitacost." However, sometimes the source is on the label and sometimes it isn't. For example, their phytosome curcumin says that it was made by Meriva and their pterostilbene says that it contains pTeroPure pterostilbene made by ChromaDex. In addition, they also sell Albion chelated minerals such as magnesium glycinate and zinc glycinate, but you have to read the labels carefully as sometimes they mix in extra ingredients.
