I run a business. I understand that things happen and every now and then somthing doesn't go the way it was planned, but if that happened every single time, i'd lose my business. How can you not make your very own release date time after time after time?
Like i said i love the products that you guys put out, but this is unproffesional and really frustrating .

Eh don't beat them up too much otherwise we won't get any information and we'll all be standing in GNC someday looking at a box of Super3adDrol going 'how come i haven't heard anything about this.'

It's really a fine line for a supplement company. They want to hype up a new product as much as possible to cover research expenses from the product, create a strong user base, get lots of feedback in quickly to entice more users, and start generating income to finance future research. They also need enough advance notice out so users can start planning (ie come off cycle, rest and be ready for the new product). Realistically you probably want at least 3 months notice to users for this kind of planning and at this point there are a lot unknowns as far as actual release-ability. Unless they're just sitting on a crate of packaged product which would be dumb financially.

I think the biggest problem AX runs into is that somebody is telling the reps misinformation. Somebody is saying 'yea the product shipped today' when in fact it is more of a possibility it could ship that day.

Yeah this is the most frustating thing. I understand marketing but not this. And they do make very good products, that's true. Which is why it makes it that much harder to wait for them to come out and keep having your hopes destroyed day after day. Come on allready, let us buy it!!!! I can't take it anymore!!!

I've though about starting a supp company many times..but all the hurdles you have to face dissuade me. I can easily imagine why product releases get delayed.
