One of our readers talks about why Amway’s prices are the shits! Even though I prefer to think the prices are the shits to match Amway’s shitty quality products LOL The only losers who think Amway products are prestige and high quality are brainwashed Ambots.
Amway prices are always out of sight for a simple reason: the
existence of an up-line to be paid off for every sale. As long as what you buy
has to be priced in such a way that everyone above you gets a small piece of
the action, the prices charged will be MUCH higher than for any other competing
product available elsewhere.
Naturally Amway tries to hide this fact, usually with bullshit about “higher
quality” or “concentration” or “prestige” status. But what the hell kind of “prestige”
exists in toilet paper, or paper towels, or laundry soap?
IBOs find out very quickly that they can’t sell Amway products at retail to
non-Amway customers. It’s one thing to pay a high price for a work of art or a
fine piece of jewelry. But only an idiot pays a high price for ordinary
household necessities.
And that’s why, when things really get tough for the poor IBO, his up-line
assholes will start preaching to him about “leadership” and “helping others”
and “prosuming” and “becoming a better person.” In other words, they will
ratchet up the bullshit to a higher and more abstract level.
Because Amway products cost so much, and cannot be sold
easily, Amway freaks have to resort to the kind of psychological pressure that
is common in all cults. They have to browbeat family members and friends to buy
the stuff, trying to shame them into paying money just on the basis of “support”
and “friendship” and “family linkage.”
This is really a pathetic way to run a so-called “business.” You can’t get
strangers to buy the products, so you put the pressure of embarrassment on your
nearest and dearest, to compel them to shell out money for crap that they don’t
want. How insulting and petty is that? Forcing your uncle or mom or next-door
neighbor to buy overpriced garbage, just because they have a relationship with
you?
When you are in Amway, you have ABSOLUTELY NO SHAME AT ALL. You have no sense
of decency, no sense of what is appropriate, no sense of limit. You’re just a
stupid robot trying to force persons to give you money.
What a con-job! The good thing is that fewer and fewer persons in North America
are falling for it.
Yes, the recruitment of new IBOs has practically come to a standstill in the U.S. and Canada. This is why the Amway Corporation is refusing to reveal its sales figures for North America, and is hiding them in the larger worldwide figures (which have shown steady losses for the last few years).
ReplyDeleteAnonymous - Amway hiding stuff and being secretive - LOL! Just the same old. For the past few years Amway sales have increased in China. Am not sure if USA is even in the top 10. Though it's my guess the current administration will do a good job of bringing sales in China to a halt. That country is none too happy with buying any American products anymore with the extra price tags recently slapped on them.
DeleteC'mon now. I thought they were bigger than the NFL! :)
