I've made about 10 purchases of Kratom (with one exception the 15x extract) and about the same with Kratom. words can't describe how wonderful they are. They have a great site that is updated regularly. they use Fedex. They ship the same day and since they are in the midwest, I've had my order go in as late as 4:00 PM edt and had it by the next morning.
They have the extra bonus of including some Kava for you if you order over 50.00 worth of stuff. I've also had them change the place of delivery after 4:30 and i can always get them on the phone and they never have any problem helping no matter how silly my requests have been.
And as far as their quality - well, there's is the only Kratom I've tried but it's been stellar. in fact, I often take Kratom now before I go on long runs or anything b/c it makes me feel really good and it's quite pleasant. it's gotten me through w/d so many times, and allowed a totally soft landing, that i'd recommend them blindly across the board. they mention that their cusomters love them and that's how they stay in business and in my experience (and yes, I've dealt with them aofr over a year now and do about one transaction a month) and their customer service is unequalled anywhere and their products rock. I've heard good stuff about other people's Kratom (mainly Flagler) and that may be true, but I like them so much no one else could entice me to try - I'm as loyal a customer as one could have. And their Kava - well, after getting a bunch of [censored] kava from health fook stores, their Kava is the bomb. I mean it's absolutely wonderful. In short, great people, great prices, great quality and super fast delivery. What more can you ask for?

it depends on the person. I've had it totally get me through W/D's and experience slight euphoria with it. When I broke my leg I was bed ridden for a while and put on a lot of weight. I had a lot of trouble running afterward. I used hydro as a crutch for a little while when I started running again but it was a really mixed blessing b/c although i could run with it, it masked a lot of other pain and I'd often overdo it. I take Kratom before any 10k race i run now b/c I've found that it has an analgesic effect on me. It's not hydro and it's not perfect by any means, but it definitely helps. It gives me a slight energy boost and unless I'm having really bad back pain to begin with, I find that it's enough of a pain aid to make things much more comfortable. i've wondered if it's the placebo effect b/c it's not supposed to be a real pain killer, but when we were talking about w/d once and I recommended some guy into week 2 of being clean take Kratom to deal with the W/D symptoms he had which were cropping up every now and then, someone pointed out that my advise was ill advised b/c it hits the same neuro-receptors (I think that was what they said but somehow when i say it out loud it sounds wrong) as hydro - which i believe may mean it has the potential to be a pain aid.
To that end, I'd definitely ask around a little more. to me it's a dream of an herb - I mean it's wonderful but I also get a lot out of taking Kava and many report no effect at all with it. so like everything, I think it depends on your body to some degree.

Iamshaman is a rip-off site in my opinion. Yes they send you product and sometimes it is of decent quality, but then they send you [censored] and refuse to refund or reship. In fact, when I mentioned to them that their Kratom leaves smelled and looked like straw and had no effect they threatened that I may be breaking the law by drinking Kratom tea and informed me that I was banned from their site. Anyone who posts a long, glowing report about any site has an ulterior motive so beware.
I'm just sharing my honest opinion and experience. If you use Iamshaman, good luck!

Me first???
Thanks a bunch singlesu. (j/k)
Actually I think I will, since you're a fraidy cat. 
Seriously, I'll start a new thread in next couple days when I have more time. I'm not sure if it will raise much interest... I have no idea how many DBers have tried kanna. It is different from Kratom in my opinion.

Hey I ordered some hbwr seeds on the 6 they were shipped the same day priority mail. I understand they are in chicago so should have them sometime today or tomorrow. Heard some good things about there site from friends. Not worried about them ripping me off the kid above really should be complaining. Your dealing with a site that has to be careful legally so you said some thing about the leaves depends on how you say things. Kratom does smell funny and has no effect so you wasted your money ethier way. I post when I recieve the seeds. bye bye

I have used them a few times.
The Kratom 20x extract actually did dissolve in water. I just ordered the small 4g batch to try b/c it's quite expensive. I was surprised. It's been the benchmark against anything else I've tried.
I also ordered 28g of dried leaves. The preparation was time-consuming, messy, and after all that - completely useless. I cannot recommend the standard dried leaves at all.
The service and shipping have been excellent, however, it seems to be one of the most expensive places on the net.

On the site it says it is only for incense, not human consumption.......is this just for legal purposes? How do you take it? I am interested in trying this out. Thanks

I just placed an order for the 15x Extract. I have never used Kratom before in my life, but have been trying to read up and get information on it. I really want to get off hydros. Could someone please tell me how to take it or point me in the correct direction/forum for this. I don't know if this post is in the correct place. Thank you for your help.

Harry, are you sure? That sounds like an awful lot of an extract to me. Usually the advice given is to add just a pinch of an extract like 15x to plain leaf.

We should probably clarify the difference between extracts and enhanced products. 15x is an extract of the active components in Kratom, meant to be added to plain leaf, not used on its own. There are a number of other kinds of extracts, too.
On the other hand, UEI and UET are enhanced products - plain leaf fortified by the addition of extracts.
Kratom is an plant, and an especially variable one. Not only will there be differences between different types, there are also differences in how they affect each individual.

Ok, guys, I am really confused, I don't understand any of this lingo: extract, plain leaf, red vein, green vein, alkaloid, etc... All I know is I now have this bag of wierd smelling fine green powder and I have no idea what to do with it? How do I measure it? Do it mix it with water and drink it? Do I swallow the straight powder and then chase it? Please help. Remember I'm a virgin folks so be gentle! I really want to get off the hydro so I hope this stuff works. Thanks!
You get the powder into your stomach any way you can.
Example... UEI (enhanced) is made by taking leaves, grinding hem up and then adding some concentrated extract to that to "boost" the active ingredient content, hence, making is stronger. I just measured out 1/2 teasponn UEI powder (seemed like 1/2 gram), put it in my moth and washed it down with water.
How much you want to wash down depends on how strong the material is. Use the amount recommended by others for the product you have. I started small to make sure I didn't have a bad reaction of some sort the first time, and the second I used 1/2 gram (which is what I saw someone recommed).
The effects were relaxing-stimulating at the same time, but with a nice analgesic effect.
Did a number on my intestines, though (i think, could have been a bad sandwich from earlier).

I tried UEI... 1/2 gram was very good. A little nausea at first, but not much. Anyone else notice a "laxative" effect, (or was that from some bad food I ate earlier?)
Lol, if anything it gives me constipation as with all opiate's I have tried.

Must have been that sandwich, then. Never trusted that deli.
