Hmm, cool to see all the differing opinions.
IMO, alpraz is leagues above etizolam in every respect. When I initially became involved with etiz, it was awesome, and I felt like I discovered something really unique. The honeymoon period didn't last long, and all attempts after to replicate any sort of truly enjoyable high or useful utility (e.g. as a comedown drug...etizolam is absolutely useless for comedowns, even at relatively high doses) didn't work for me. Tolerance build up was extremely rapid and oddly persistent. I understand different strokes for different folks, but I was genuinely surprised by the interest surrounding this drug, especially given its horrid w/d symptoms.
I've bought from different vendors with different brands. Concern seemed to be the best. Dissolvable Intas (I think that was the brand) easily the worst.
