[QUOTE=Hilltopper;1634018]If you are referring to generic Viagra, then yes, walk in and buy it for less than $2 at one of the little pharmacies. They will have several options to choose from, with some being more expensive. I can only vouch for the ones that are under $2, and didn't see a reason to try the higher priced ones.[/QUOTE]Yes sir, perfect, Thanks.
[QUOTE=Hilltopper;1634011]You tell him such and HE presents more. Don't like those, you tell him such and HE finds more. After saying you don't like the dozen or so various choices presented while relaxing and enjoying drinks there in Playa Hollywood, etc. , you take a stroll up and down Laguito in the late afternoon / early evening (before and during dusk). Finding a suitable chica in the afternoon to early evening is a pretty easy thing to do for one who is relaxed, not in a rush, is able to go with the flow and is observant and aware and is able to interact with Colombianos. IMHO, guys who are in a rush, impatient, anxious, nervous, bothered with locals, etc. , tend to miss out on a lot of what may be available to them.
Just my dos centavos.[/QUOTE]Thanks man, I think being patient and dealing with one of the Tonys will be worth my wait. Great advice.

[QUOTE=BigB23;1634116]Thanks man, I think being patient and dealing with one of the Tonys will be worth my wait. Great advice.[/QUOTE]You're welcome. I can share that the most memorable chica experiences over the years from Playa Hollywood for me have just happened when I was just there hanging out without worrying about the time or anxious about finding a chica to bang. The typical scene: A chica with a girlfriend or two, or three, often even including a guy or two, just show-up on the beach not appearing to be there for "work". If one is in a hurry, or grabs the first working girl HE spots 'cause HE's already popped his Vit V, then that moment in time where a gem falls into one's lap is never given the chance to play out.
While I've had many "stick and carrot" scenes with Tony (Tony #1), in the end I know that the guy will work to find something that I like; be it approaching chicas on the beach and bringing them over to introduce themselves, calling up chicas to see if they want to come to the beach, etc. , etc. The most fun has typically taken place when I spot a chica on the beach that I find attractive, ask Tony if HE's seen her before or knows her, HE says "no", but then heads-off to approach her and next thing I know she's standing under my carpa because Tony wants to introduce his gringo friend to her.
Some days I'm not in the mood to deal with Tony, or HE's in a mood that's not compatible with mine, so I spend that day under one of Fao's carpas and let Emily tell me what chica is what and have Jayson scout, call, approach, etc. So what if Tony cops an attitude that day 'cause I'm in one of Fao's carpas, HE'll get over it and I'll hang out with him on another occasion. At times it can be akin to a soap opera scene that I find quite humorous, LOL.
In the end, I don't begrudge guys like Tony and Jayson making 20 mil commission here and there. Heck, they are out there working everyday in the hot, humid equatorial lowlands trying to make a living and provide for their family. All I have to do is ask and they'll run back-and-forth in that hot, humid sun trying to find or retrieve something for me. Works for me.

Gracias![/QUOTE]I don't have any first-hand experience with Cialis. As to pharmacies and generic Viagra, I've purchased it from 3 or so different places in Laguito and 3 or so places in Bocagrande (on the end nearest Laguito). I've never had any "bad stuff" from any of the pharmacies there. The only occasional hiccup is when one of the clerks grabs a more expensive brand out of the drawer and I have to tell them "no" and talk them down to getting the ones that are three price levels lower and sell for under $2 a pill.
I do know that I gave Jayson a package that contained 2 50 MG pills 'cause HE had some chica blanca on the beach all hot because she wanted to experience some chocolate and the guy took both of them and experienced a heavy dose of "blue flashes". My response when HE told me the next day? "You should have taken a half of one, or at most only one on your first time trying the stuff", LOL.

Will check out Laguito and Bocagrande places.
P.S: I prefer Cialis. Fewer side effects and longer effects (up to 3-4 days).

Gracias![/QUOTE]No need to be anxious about that. ANY pharmacy in Colombia sells generic Sildenafil and the price is cheap. Colombian pharmaceutic industry is reputable and with high quality standards.
On the other hand, there is NO generic Cialis or Levitra.
Just go to any pharmacy you see (you may want to choose one when there is not a long queue of people waiting and listening to your discussion with the guy or girl on the other side of the desk) and ask Sildenafil generico. All brands are good. Now I remember only Genfar, but there are several.
I buy my yearly supply of V in Colombia, because it is the only place I visit where it is cheap and sold freely without hassle. It's funny when I go to the pharmacy and ask 10-20 boxes <grin .
[QUOTE=OldParr;1633742]From the newspaper El Espectador today, Friday.

The more I read this and other similar articles on the Colombian press the more I laugh.
Are they so dumb or naif? All this article is laughable. They say they "discovered" a "postribulo", etc. Etc. Wow what amazing detectives!
Actually, this photo does not show a brothel but the (in) famous Casa Golan, which is, with Casa Benjamin, one of the two Israel "private clubs" in Cartagena. Patronized EXCLUSIVELY by Israelian tourists and dozen of chicas, they are not brothels but kind of hotels or holidays "resorts". All girls want to go there, because the guys are extremely handsome (and generous with all kinds of drugs).
Police never goes there to check for "illegal substances". I am trying to guess why....
There are days in CTG when girls seem disappeared from LDV etc. It's when the Israelians organize their parties in some island. 20-30 girls go there and spend 2 days dancing and fucking.
Everyone in Cartagena knows that, except evidently the journalists. They might try to ask a taxi driver next time, when they want to know something about the city where they live.
By the way, I see that now the press is starting to publish photos of those places, presenting them as discoveries. Guess the source of those photos? The Facebook pages of the two clubs. Pathetic.
For the past several years, I have been buying generic viagra in different SA locales including CTG and Lima. Also, for the past several years, I have been having trouble with severe hiccups after ingesting the generic version. This can go on sporadically for days at a time to the point I recently decided that I would have to forgo buying this stimulant in the future.
However, I asked a Peruvian doctor friend of mine about this problem. HE said the ingredient mix is not always precisely the same or it's possible the coating, or lack thereof, on the generic pills may be causing the problem. As a result, the last batch I bought I paid the normal viagra price for the real version and have not had any indigestion or hiccup problems.

Generic drugs are exactly the SAME as "original" brands, if produced by reputable industries. What you report is kind of urban legend propagated by pharma industries. Probably a negative placebo effect, unless you bought pills from non-reputable industries.
Why they cost less? They don't have the "added value" of the brand name.
Are Colombian industries reputable? Yes, by all means they follow the same quality standards of Europe or USA industry. I remember Genfar, Colfarma, but there are others too.
Would I buy blue pills available on Internet? No, because they come mostly from India, etc, where the concept of "legal" is fuzzy.
It's not an urban legend. What I described is exactly what I experienced. I am not a chemist and have not compared the label ingredients between generic and non-generic nor do I have at my disposal the equipment to measure the ingredients. All I can say is the last batch of generic V that I bought in CTG, in addition to other generic V purchases, have had a deleterious effect on my esophagus and digestive system. The Pfizer product did not effect me negatively in any way. I have never bought V on-line and all my generic purchases in the past have been at pharmacies in Peru or Colombia.
My physician in Lima suggested that I try the regular V brand and it worked much better. It's as simple as that.

Quality of the ingredients with the correct recipe may vary greatly when manufactured in third world countries. IMO it is safer to pay extra for the non generic ed drugs.
Lasted for days at a time? You didn't know you're supposed to consult with a medical professional should the effect last longer than 4 hours?

I went back to the original post you cited, and yes, current pricing was the same when I was last there in May. Just memorize the price for the main items and then when you ask for a carpa with a chair, table, etc, just recite the price out loud with a big smile to let Tony know that you know the prices for everything. Then say. "Tony no fuck me okay". HE'll get a kick out of it, LOL.
