Way way way to pricey for what it is... also you dont really know how much of each ingredient you are getting.
Roakim, - it depends from whop you're buying :) UK prices are horrible. It's better to take their stuff from Ireland. I believe it's because in UK there is VAT on supplements and in Ireland there's 0% VAT on most of supps.
Just compare prices betweem
www.olimp-uk.com and
www.olimpshop.com And in relation to ingredients - they quote it on website so I don't know where your point comes from
The stuff I take from them is well described
in example GainBolic I've recently bought:
