Purchasing shortage items from the "Gray market"

Hello all,

I am wondering if anyone uses the gray market to purchase items on shortage. I know previously these markets were not regulated, but now that they will need to be regulated by the FDA, are more using them? I guess a bigger question is how can you be sure that they are following those regulations? Just for safety, integrity of the medications you are purchasing. Thanks!
