Is Nootropics Depot still legit (after their reopening)?

I'm a 23 year old male graduate student. After doing tons of research, I decided to get Bacopa Monnieri Capsules to improve my memory. After looking at sifting through tons of supplements, I decided to go with [this one] (http://nootropicsdepot.com/bacognize-bacopa-monnieri-capsules/) from Nootropics Depot. I'm interested in that one specifically, but my question is: Are they still a reliable company with effective products?
I read that they shut down then reopened, and heard different people saying "they aren't as good as they used to be," but I really don't know how credible that statement is. Do you guys still buy from them? Also, is their Bacopa Monnieri Capsules safe and effective? (I couldn't find reviews on them).

Hey cool stuff man, thanks. I've read your comments in the past and glad to know that ND is upfront about everything (it pisses me off how misleading/unresponsive a lot of vendors through Amazon are).
I've wanted to ask you personally, what safe/effective supplements do you recommend for the following? I've done tons of research (googled different nootropics for hours and browsed the Reddit forums and beginners guide all day) but I want your opinion specifically. As a note, I don't want to combine supplements right now, so if you can just tell me which supplements would help with which of the following things, that'd be great (even if one supplement would only help partially with one of the things).
1) What would help me absorb information quickly and help me retain that information for a long period of time?
2) What would help me analyze problems easier? Kind of like the guy from limitless (bad example obviously lol but basically something that makes tackling and analyzing complex problems easier).
3) What would help with concentrating and focusing?
OH, and one last thing. Do your Bacopa capsules make you sleepy or give you an upset stomach?
Thanks again for your help.

You're asking for a simple answer to a complex question. Unfortunately there is no single compound that can reliably provide the specific high-level enhancement you are asking for in all people. It takes a lot of trial and error to find what works best for your specific brain chemistry. I can tell you what works for me, but that might not work for you.
1) A stack of PRL-8-53 and Unifiram works well to help me memorize and retain information.
2) That's a very high-level process. However, I would say things that increase creativity would be best. Nasal Noopept does that for me like clockwork. It makes me take a hit to my ability to articulate words and terms. However, I get very creative on it.
3) Pramiracetam makes me seriously focused. It also kills my emotions. That is good for some things, but not ideal all the time.
Bacopa can make me sleepy; especially at higher dosages. If I am regularly using it, I usually dose at night.
