USP labs marketing department strikes again

absurdly low ...... give me a break. The ATP-Carnosine-Vaso Complex raws of Jacked will cost you only $5 if you buy them in bulk from NP so you're paying $10 for the 7g Y-RD Complex which is mostly caff....

Fine. Take a break! But when you are done, I would be very interested in seeing where one can get Geranium, Theophylline, and Schizandrol A for $5.00. Arguments are fine, but they should be based on facts to be convincing.

Learn. Teach. Lead.

Dude...he rips people off by gouging them for $19.99. He's hella rich.

He must be making a fat wad of about $2 a unit.

This is a little harsh - arent people entitled to their own opinions on this board or is it just for kissing supplement company butt?

his opinion actually does have some validity! the nutraplanet release of 19.95 does actually call into question the "AMAZING!!!!!" deal that usp said the inner circles would be considering it was only $5 cheaper in the end. Now i know the 19.95 deal is still temporary but its there!

Im still happy with my purchase from the inner circle deal but cant help but feel a little misled from the way usp guaranteed "the best inner circle deal to date!"....

I will add that i am a usp fan and love their products but usp need to be careful with their marketing sometimes...

Or if you purchased 3 and with free shipping(which was an average of 9 dollars) that is a $39 savings.

If you purchased one from USPlabs cost was 20.95 with shipping so if you buy one from NP the cost with shipping maybe be around 26.95 too 27.95..

If $39 is not a savings and if $7 is not a savings, you are a lucky man financially.

i didn't say I didn't want it. i was asking what percentage of people who bought 3 would have only purchased 1 knowing that information. whenever someone says something about USP people seem to take it to the extreme i don't understand that. if i said the same thing about another company nobody would flip out. it was a marketing strategy and u know it even if u don't want to admit it. does that take away from it being a great deal? no it doesn't. will some people be disappointed knowing it's $5 more on nutra? probably.

Strategic, are there any other beneficial schisandrins? I liked Nature's Way schisandra caps, but I don't know what or if it's standardized for anything.

Is Y-RD mostly caffeine? well lets evaluate this... is Caffeine responsible for the complete stimulant effect of Jacked or milligram per milligram there is more caffeine?

That is pretty pointless because you could of purchased 1 direct from us at a cheaper price than the NP price...

We also priced low because our economy is suffering and the 19.99 is an intro price....

Most of the schisandra products I have seen are either plain powders (not extracted for any particular actives), or standardized for schisandrins/schisandrin B. Schisandrol A is much harder to find.

That Focus Dirt makes me sleep. So, honestly I'll probably cap it and take it pre-bed. I remember that I needed a lot of the caps and they were kinda pricey, but it helped out a bit. Maybe the Focus Dirt is just stronger and I need a lower dose.

i'm done. if people don't have the common sense to realize that people stocked up on 3 of them because they figured they were getting a new product at half price instead of buying the usual 1 to try it out then i quit
 
by the way just received mine today and am drinking it as we speak. taste is fantastic especially for having no fillers. and i'm starting to second guess taking 3 scoops, have a very high tolerance to stims but this seems to be kickin in pretty quickly

Common sense can be notoriously uncommon sometimes! :) The point is that your comment was based on an abstract and speculative foundation.

actually i saved nothing on shipping as mine was an international order and shipping still cost me $30 so my saving was a total of $15 from buying 3 tubs jacked...

Actually u missed the point i was making about the 'extent' of the inner circle deal in comparison to the nutraplanet deal. When compared to the Prime inner circle deal ($30 per tub) which turned out to be much better as the nutraplanet price started off at $54.99. So not exactly "the best inner circle deal to date"...

but still good :)
 
jsp0785 said:
consider this a warning? i wasn't whining in the other thread i was just curious to see how many people hadn't received their order yet, and this post i noticed the marketing tactic being used. i'm not saying its good or bad, hell i even bought 3 of them. so get off your high horse and your bad @ss attitude over threatening a guy on the computer.

You keep thinkin' that, Sparky - I'm gonna go stand outside the blast zone. See ya 'round, maybe....

but with PRIME we advertised 2 pages spreads in 4-5 different magazines but with JACKED there is 0 advertising.

When you look at the behind the scenes details JACKED is a great deal any which way you look at it.

That thought helps me sleep at night... :lol:

Also, if you think about it, that statement is not that absurd. If you wait to order every other month or once every three months, you could be waiting until what you need racks up to 200 bucks. Not that far-fetched. You are assuming everyone orders once a month, at the least...

Maybe I'm just assuming people are smart/thrifty/think ahead...

I will ask Sam to raise the price to $49.99. Problem solved.

All kidding aside...you ICers don't know how good of a deal you really got. When I look at how much I paid, I get jealous (seriously) :rasp:

But bottom line is this, no one will ever get it for $15 again and soon to be, no one will ever get it for $19.99 again. So for those of you who want to try or already tried and want more Jacked...NP is the place to get it!

Invalid Link Removed only $19.99 at NutraPlanet While Supplies Last (and they won't for long).

**IMPORTANT NOTICE**
For all you ICers who used Jacked, I urge you to click Invalid Link Removed and leave a review. Others are counting on your feedback. Make a difference in the life of a bodybuilder and leave your 2¢. It doesn't take long and you will feel better about yourself for sharing this holiday season! ~God Bless

I think what he's trying to say is this:

The offer was $15 a pop with free shipping if you ordered three. The total would be $45 for a product no one has even tried yet. For someone who believes the deal is going to be amazing but just wants to just give it a try (meaning, they really only need one to try it out), they think they are going to be getting a deal that will vastly outweigh the cost of buying just one at a retailer.

Now on the other hand, when someone goes to make a purchase at NP they will probably be aiming to reach $200 to get free shipping (which nullifies part of the USPLabs Jacked deal). They see that Jacked is now being offered as well. They want to add that to their order to give it a try. They will only add one because they may already be receiving free shipping and are buying other things they already know they will like and because they just want to give it a try.

In the end, they see they could've just waited for it to come out on NP and paid the extra five dollars and only felt the pressure/urge to buy one.

I'm not agreeing either way on this. There is just a lot of psychology at play here. And maybe it is just strong marketing in the way that it compelled people to buy three when they really only wanted one (especially because no one had used it before). Yes, everyone has a choice in life. And people could've only bought one during the IC release. He didn't need to buy three. But when you see that the price difference in the end for just one isn't that much money, it kinda makes you feel like you were tricked by marketing.

Nahm sayin?

tl;dr - the economics of people wanting to try one v. getting all three and risk/reward choice choice....blahblah
 
wow look at all the trouble I stired up, lol.

JSP I warned you because you come off as whining about a suppp company offering savings. I don't care whether it is USPlabs, Avant, or IBE bottom line is they sponsor here for a reason and if they are kind of enough to offer you and I a discount for being part of this board then lets all shut up and say thank you sir may I have another. It may not have been your intent but it's how I am taking it and I just happen to work this board and have done so for some years. Your other thread was useless. I tried to be nice as did others by saying it will come blah blah blah but you kept it going. If you are not sure about your order email or call the company.

Rugger you cannot win

USP-u suck for saving us money see what you did

Sam-nutraplanet sucks too because you are offering it at $19.99.

Did i leave anybody out?

Oh Dsade you suck too, not sure why but u probably did something like create a useful product and offered it at a reasonable price. Also I refuse to be Admin here as I won't change my avatar to a christmas character:D Something about them just doesn't scream "Badass":D
