The worst towels I have ever
used came from Amway. This was a few years back. I have no idea if Amway still
sells shitty towels. I can’t remember what colors Ambot purchased. I definitely
remember red. I think the other set was a different color, maybe blue or green.
The first time I used the towels all the little red fluff came off all over my
body. YUCK! So I toss them in the washer and dryer hoping that a cycle will get
rid of the fluffies. I know from past experience that sometimes a washing or
two is necessary to get the lint off.
No such luck. For the next month I washed and dried those suckers multiple
times following each use because everytime I used them I was grossed out by all
the towel fluff left on my body. Talk about low quality at a premium price! Not
to mention how irritating it is to dry myself off and have towel parts stuck
all over me. Absolutely disgusting.
After a month I told Ambot I refused to use those shitty towels anymore. I went
to the department store and bought Ralph Loren Polo towels. They were lower
priced and better quality than the Amway towels. The best thing? No more
shedding!
The second best thing is those higher quality RL towels lasted for years.
They’d still be going strong except I decided I needed a change and headed to
JC Penney to buy some nice plush Egyptian towels. If anyone is looking for good
quality reasonably priced fluffy luxurious towels, they’re from the Chris
Madden Home Collection at JC Penney. (Edited to add since this post first
appeared on the blog I’m really fucking pissed off at JC Penney for not
carrying this brand anymore the last time I needed to refresh the towels.)
Getting back to the fluff magnets, Ambot was able to return the towels with the
complaint that they shed worse than our dog. I guess our sack of shit Platinum
and other fucking assholes in our Amway upline lost some points on that refund
too! Upline losing bonus points because of me is, well, always a bonus!
Well, the thing is this: Amway generally pinches pennies by producing low-grade stuff, because they know that there will be a long line of persons grabbing a profit from every sale, so the products have to be intrinsically cheap in order to avoid making the retail price unbearably high.
ReplyDeleteSo what happens? They buy a cut-rate fabric or cotton base, manufacture it into towels in the cheapest way possible, and then depend on the loudmouth praises of up-line hucksters to force low-level IBOs to buy them.
I can just hear them: "These are HIGH QUALITY towels! They last forever! You can't get quality like this in any store!"
And the idiot IBOs dutifully purchase them, use them, get lint all over their bodies, and insist that the towels are great.
That's one of the most powerful impulses keeping Amway alive: you not only lie to others, but you lie to yourself.
That's right Anonymous. Amway sells cheap shit at overinflated prices. Amway Ambots claim the high prices are due to the high quality but the prices are high so that Amway's owners can make a profit off each sell and every asshole between the Ambot who made the sell all the way upline to the Diamond get a piece of commission.
DeleteLying is what Amway is all about. Lying to others and lying to yourself because you so desparately want to believe that Amway is a legitimate way to get rich.
