i've heard Dbol and deca ..but back then, i heard prices for an amp of deca was around 3 bucks!!! so just imagine how much of that they took...

They had to take a lot of shots to cause back then there was just 50mg/ml Deca and the price being 3 bucks is probably what our prices are today. The cost of living wasn't as high as it is now.

Well if you THINK about it, gas was around 30-35cent/gal.
minimum wage was around $2.50
A nice new car was around 2- $3000
So $3 a amp was about like $10-$12 by comparison

"Anabolic Edge" claims primo-dbol was the combo that gave him most of his size.

More than you would think was around. I have a friend in his late forties. He is a powerlifter and still a freak. He said twenty years ago, he could get scripts for anything he wanted. He even used anavar , halotestin , equipoise , and winny back then. There are only a few that weren't available back then that are now.
