The way vendors are today with their constant "spinning" of the truth (read as plain down right lying or evasive diatribe) to line their coffers it shouldn't surprise you in the least that people want the facts and not some marketing hype. Its a buyers market at the moment in case you haven't heard. If you think people here have nothing but deep pockets full of cash that you can FLEECE to finance your house, cars, boats, vacations and kids' college education then you have a alot to learn.

If you want to move that stuff you sell then your choices are either:

1. lower your prices to something reasonable (like a 50% reduction in price)

OR

2. sit on your inventory (which you probably don't do because you do a "just-in-time" order to vendor and have them drop ship direct to the consumer..and then you walk off laughing to the bank)

OR

3.

I think you're being a little rude.

My take: A product is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. If Smoky has the rep, and the results to back up the rep, who are you to say what the item is worth?

And as for monies spent, I'd have no problem spending the extra cash IF it could be proven that the advertised gains were real. So far I have not seen that proof. So your comments apparently don't include my pockets, which seem to be deeper than yours!

You seem to take the whole thing personally, and that really makes no sense at all. You don't like it, don't buy it. No big deal.
