Because Amazon retail is a joke. I don't trust ANYTHING on amazon to be a legit product. there's no way in HELLZ I'll trust drugs from there. I'd rather take my chances on Silk Road. My rule for buying from Amazon: if it goes in me, if it goes on me, or it is an electronic item, it doesn't get bought from Amazon.
To get legit products from Amazon is like winning a scratch off. It's not rare, just not common.
Drugs are a much more highly regulated industry where you won't have random sellers stock intermixed for fulfillment so the plague of fakes and knockoffs are unlikely to extend to their pharmacy play.
i've had my fun with better living through chemistry taking pills of unknown manufacture. you go ahead and have fun with that. if you get them cheaper, and i pay more for something i personally feel assured about, then you do you.
i've been around the sun enough times to know that when things are too cheap, there's usually a reason. history is full of pills being sold that weren't what they claimed to be on the box.

We know most of the reason though, and that is that the insurance model of the US is completely broken and blows prices completely out of the water. The Amazon pharma prices are only 'too cheap' relative to the base US inflated price. They're much closer to the prices you see in perfectly peer level countries in Europe where they have perfectly safe drugs.
