Whooaa you guys need to relax! There are several product I have been waiting for but retailers are out of stock because of the olympics. Internal crap always happens delaying release. Happens at my company all the time and I am sure it happens at yours. Have some patience cuz i'm sure it will be the wait!

I think Mulletsoldier (post #5) accurately summarized some of the challenges a new product release involves. Previous experience may not necessarily help quicken things, as no new product release is the same as the one(s) before. A lot of variables may not be under the control of the company. Things get more complex, the bigger the company gets. Changing a previously announced release date without giving a correct estimate of a new date may also turn out to compromise goodwill on the part of consumers, so it may be useful to make a new announcement once legal/logistic/supply-chain issues are fairly resolved.
I am sure USPLabs is not insensitive to the expectations relating to the Prime release. While some may be frustrated by the current state of things, we should take solace in the fact that USPLabs is certainly doing everything it can to guarantee a successful release. Of that I am sure. Let's give them a short break, so they can continue the focus on getting Prime out as promptly as possible.

Well conanface, as I said, at times extenuating circumstances arise in the productive aspect of the supplement industry. While USP Labs is an experienced company, it is not a matrix of clairvoyants who predict the market's reactions to supply and demand with stunning accuracy.

Unfortunately, for both ourselves and the consumer, conditions beyond our control arise. As Jacob said, we are not going to alienate an entire market segment based on the desires of another. USP Labs, I would venture to say, offers more forum-specific rebates, discounts, and special incentives than any other company; expanding our consumer base, in my opinion, is not counterintuitive to that goal.

I think everybody in this thread merely needs to breathe.

Very introspective and balanced view!

Not sure what you are trying to get at on this one?

He's saying: "Politely ask for an updated ETA, and I'll give you one".

I think what the op meant to type was "if you knew it was not going to make the july deadline, then just post a thread saying that it was going to be delayed until further notice"

He just went about addressing it with the wrong word choice.

Dear Mullet.

OK, I'll bite.

Could you please provide an expected ETA for Prime release?

No problem. I'll ask Jacob politely myself and respond.

Easy as pie. This is what I found out for you guys:

I spoke to both a member of our Legal Team, as well as Jacob. The member of our Legal Team relayed that a few regulatory 'pressure points', in respects to the large corporate retailers, have delayed the release; however, these are to be processed by Friday at the latest. As a result (and this is directly from USP Ownership) early next week (as in Monday/Tuesday) an Inner Circle e-mail will be sent out with a more consolidated and exact timeline. At that point, I also believe purchasing details will be made clear.

Better?
