Company Information
We started by looking at the about us page of the pharmacy. It clearly states that the website has a physical pharmacy located in North Phoenix, Arizona. Apart from that, it also lists the other services which the pharmacy provides. Since it also mentions the retail hours and other details of the pharmacy in North Phoenix, one thing is pretty clear; it is not a shady operation.
Domain Details
When buying from the website of the offline pharmacy, it is good to choose one which has been around for years together. However, the online operations of this retail pharmacy have begun only since 2019. It means that it does not have the same experience online as it has offline. While this doesn’t necessarily mean that this is a scam pharmacy, it does not inspire a lot of confidence either.
Business Profile
This is where the red flags appear. When you dig deeper into the WHOIS details of the pharmacy, you will realize that it is using privacy protection. If the pharmacy is truly legit and has a retail location, it will never use privacy protection. This goes against the information provided on the about us page of the pharmacy.
It means that you cannot be 100% sure that this pharmacy has a retail location, and the website is also associated with the same pharmacy. In fact, if you need the administrative contact of the pharmacy, it is very difficult to get an actual one rather than the privacy registrar one.
Regulatory Agencies
The website doesn’t make any mention of the FDA. It doesn’t mention any other authority either. That is why you cannot be 100% sure that the medicines being sold through by pharmacy are legit. In the absence of such certification, there is no point in going with this pharmacy.
While they do ask for the prescription when you order from the pharmacy but apart from that, they haven’t disclosed any other details. Considering that there is no information about FDA-approved medicines, you cannot order from this pharmacy with 100% confidence.
Available Products
The pharmacy website does not offer many details regarding the categories in which it can provide you with medicines. However, a few of the listed names include:
- diabetes products
- hepatitis C treatments
- hormone therapy medicines
- arthritis medicines, etc.
It means that if you’re looking for some other medicines, you will have to contact the pharmacy or upload your prescription, and only after that can you know whether the pharmacy offers you those medicines are not. Truth be told, this is a pretty lengthy process. That is why, if you want a seamless experience, this pharmacy might not be the best for you.
Pricing
The homepage of the pharmacy states that it will not charge you more as compared to other pharmacies. However, if you’re looking to save money on medicines, the pharmacy does not make any claim regarding the low cost. When ordering meds from this pharmacy, you will get them almost at the same price as other pharmacies. That is why the goal of saving money cannot be fulfilled by ordering from this pharmacy.
Payments and Deliveries
One positive aspect of this pharmacy is that it accepts most credit cards. If you want to order medicines from this pharmacy, you can do that without much worry.
While the website does not provide you with details regarding the delivery information, it states that numerous delivery options are available. That is why you can choose one suitable for you. The lack of information regarding exact payment methods, and delivery methods certainly raises some doubts.
Customer Reviews
Unfortunately, the pharmacy does not link to any testimonials or social media pages. Neither does it has the testimonials on its own website. You will have to search for their physical location and cross-verify the testimonials. However, doing so is not easy either. Keeping this in mind, you need to consider that the pharmacy, especially the website, does not have testimonials.
Conclusion
While the pharmacy website might not be a downgrade scam, it certainly has many red flags. Its physical location has been in operation since 2004, but the website has only been in operation since 2019. Even when you look at other ValleyOfTheSunPharmacy.com reviews, you will realize that the reviews are mixed. That is why you cannot trust this pharmacy fully. Keeping all these red flags in mind, we give it only 2 stars out of 5.
