You do understand that numerous people get under dosed if not bunk gear from those so called holy grail of testings, right?
Doing the Simec testing we decided against as our product is all proven time and time again, as well as the above issues with simec testing.
Thank you for copy and pasting though.
This thread is such a train wreck.
Boxcar, if you would have read the same post above a year ago, and it had been authored by someone other than yourself, you would have responded much like the fellas here have responded to you.
I can't even believe that your reason for not testing your product is that "it is all proven time and time again". Really?
Maybe I am thinking this shit through to thoroughly, maybe I am using too much common sense, maybe I am thinking too much like a reputable business person, but...
--Marvel is at the mercy of your raws supplier - for this reason, I would want to submit to Simec testing to protect my brand from potentially being damaged by my raws supplier
--You as a rep rely on Marvel's quality to do what you do - for that reason, I would push for Simec testing
--As a rep and as a company, knowing that some positive results from Simec would boost my ugl's image (and subsequently, sales) - I would submit to Simec testing.
There are 3 good reasons to utilize Simec testing.
Here are some reasons not to:
-- you fear the results (truth) will sink your ugl
--you believe it is too expensive (and you're not smart enough to realize that the $300 per test you would invest would easily be recouped through the increase in sales that would come from good results)
--again, you fear the results
