Past criminal or not, we strongly believe in his product.
You are entitled to believe what you will. I believe that your defense
of him and his [censored] destroys any semblance of credibility you may have.
What basis do you have to call it [censored]?
The marketing of it tells me that it is '[censored]' in the sense that it is
merely a highly inflated priced vitamin. The marketing makes all sorts
of nebulous claims which is the hallmark of a huckster like Lapre.
Quoted message said:Have you even tried the product?
No need to. I maintain a healthy, balanced diet.
Quoted message said:Recommending an effective product can never take away from my
credibility.
Effective for what? Nebulous symptoms which wax and wane on their own?

So, tell me.
And 9.9 times

You sure do have a high opinion of yourself.

Yes I am a Believer and Christianity has always been distributed via

Quoted message said:networking/mlm (word-of-mouth) model just like Atheism and just about
everything else. Pyramids are illegal. Network marketing/MLM is not.
While that is technically true, it is one heck of a way to inflate
prices...one of the mantras of the AltWorld is follow the money, and,
with MLM, there is sure a lot of money floating around.
What does this have to do with anything? I don't care if it costs $100,
I will buy it if it is as good as it is claimed to be and especially
more so with a money back guarantee.
Effective for what? Personal experience does not count in this regard.
Quoted message said:That's a no brainer.
That is *precisely* what Lapre and the other hucksters are counting on.
I've thrown
Quoted message said:away more money going out to dinner. You seem like the type of person
going through life rejecting absolutely everything that just is and
justify your beliefs with your intelligence that is derived from the
supposed intelligence of other men.
Not really...but the explanation would be wasted on you.
Anything GOOD in your opinion just

nothing to do with an income opportunity unless that is your desire.
BTW, it's not an MLM. Again, we believe in the product and what we

reason we
Quoted message said:promote it. Not for monetary gain as you insinuate.
It is not MLM? Then it is direct sale from manufacture?
Do car dealerships functions as MLM? No they do not and you don't buy
directly from the auto manufacturer. When someone places an order for
the vitamins, they are actually placing the order directly on the
Greatest Vitamin's web site. The order is processed and shipped directly
from them. I don't have bottles in my possession except for those I take
daily. I will simply receive a *referral* fee. This practice happens
everyday all over the world. Most web sites call them affiliates.
Yeah...I read up on the system of how Lapre scams people. You may be one
of the lucky ones.

If it works it works. You and nobody else can discredit that.
How about proving it works?
The ingredients are proved to do what they claim and this proof just
happens to come from the medical and science societies indicated in the
references section of the site. Taking it is the only way to really
prove that it works for you just like with prescription medications.
What kind of foolish request is this?
Asking for proof is never foolish. Weaseling out of providing it, is.

Wrong. That is absolutely inaccurate. There is scant regulation of the
claims of these salescreeps.
You're wrong and being good friends with an Attorney General who polices
these type of companies, if any claim that they make is unsubstantiated,
the will be immediately reprimanded by the AG, FTC and FDA, Their
operations will be completely suspended during a mandatory
investigation. The documentation they use is constantly reviewed by the
aforementioned governmental bodies as well.
The claims that are made are, at best, nebulous, and, thus do not run
afoul of the government regulators.

Quoted message said:someone can give it a *negative review* who has not even tried it or
knows someone who has. You would rather hit us with the "well I heard"
line. That is completely idiotic and irresponsible.
I can give jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge a negative review without
ever having done it. Sometimes, the use of the brain to weigh facts,
etc. can lead to such decision making.
You have no facts about the product to weigh. Most importantly, not even
your own experience with it as a fact or even someone you personally
know who has experienced it. How asinine is that?
The asinine quotient is zero.
Quoted message said:Quoted message said:The "try it, you'll like it" school of marketing is bogus.
The "don't try it, because we or anyone we know hasn't, but we still
know" school of marketing is idiotic and deceptive.
So you say, but, then, that would be bad for business.

clever marketing and advertising.
Au contraire...but not any more if I can help it.
