Re: [MLM Survivors Club] Ever tried Bio Lean II? Leave an Amazon.com Review!

I was merely asking for reviews on the product Hal. Not a defense
statement for Amazon. I simply said they "...broke my trust and
confidence".. meaning that I now feel like I'm the one that has to
scrutinize anything I buy from their site as they obviously don't.
Do you see anywhere in my post where I even tried to discourage
people from using Amazon because they're the culprit here? No!!!!

And Yes, I did say in my post I expect positive reviews. Do you
have a problem with that? I thought this whole group was about
looking about positive and negative aspects of MLMs. Isn't that why
some proMLMers are allowed here? Isn't it healthy to see both sides
and, as a logically thinking adult, use what fits your own personal
values?

As an open-minded individual, I take both positive and negative
product reviews and use "what makes sense" given the product and the
promise.

Guess I'm not going to be able to read posts from this group as I
try to enjoy my own morning mug. Makes my blood boil when somebody
takes something and turns it in to another cause. How did a request
for Bio Lean II reviews become a review on Amazon? Can't see
anywhere in my post where I asked "why" Amazon does what they do.
Yes, Hal, I understand that a business with projected revenues close
to 14 billion this year that does business solely on-line doesn't
have time to go over every listing. Did I say anywhere that they
did, should or could? No. I understood all that from the beginning.

Now, product reviews on Bio Lean II anyone?
