    The super strength p73 oreganol oil, 4 bottles was received prior to the estimated delivery date. This seller is very honest and has integrity. He/she advertised super strength and that is exactly what I ordered and received. Going forward, I will only order this product from this vendor. In the past, at least two (2) other vendors sent me regular strength, although they advertised super strength.
