Why would anyone in their right mind pay $45 for 2lbs of whey isolate, which yields ONLY 83%?

For example, one of the best whey isolates in the markey, AST VP2, is only $35 for 2lbs.

Also, other brands, like for example, AllMax Isoflex, yield much more per 100 grams, up to 90%, and cost much less than $45.

Both AST and AllMax are brands that have been well documented, trusted and extremely well sourced.

Not to mention Dymatize & Optimum, or one of the newest players dominating the protein market, MyProtein, which is cheaper and high quality.

Its pretty easy.  My top selling protein powder I sell is 100% Egg White Protein.  Its unflavored but I market it by putting recipes in the ad.

Its fine to have multiple flavors....if you have the money to buy it in bulk. 

Oooh, you need to have so much money to buy it dirt fucking cheap on Alibaba

That's what all these dickheads do. Buy in bulk online, chuck it in their own labelled containers and peddle it to idiots.

True, but when you're on the run then you don't have time for it.  But consider what I said about Dave's issue with too many flavor


Cherry Vanilla - A person would rather blend frozen cherries with vanilla protein
Cookies & Cream - Mix cookie dough with vanilla
Vanilla Peanut Butter - Mix Peanut Butter with Vanilla protein
Chocolate Peanut Butter - Same thing with Chocolate
Cinnamon Donut - As fancy as it sounds....Mix Cinnamon with Vanilla Protein


The truth is that Dave is losing money having too many flavors that simply will go expired and vendors stuck with products will not buy again...and that's ANY PRODUCT.

It's amazing isn't it. All these guys our resident failure gives advice to start LONG after Vince and made money pretty much within the first year or two. Vince is nearly touching a decade in business and has 150 bucks in his account  :-\

Off course. With all the filler, sugar and crap in there, it never goes off. They just stick that on there to give the product more legitimacy.

The second link I posted further up even gives you a label to use. Also says 'Made in the USA' whilst being in fucking China! It's unreal that people still buy this crap or try and sell it with a straight face.

There you go. Can probably get it for 5 bucks a kilogram. Make yourself a fancy logo on the PC, grab a label from online and call yourself 'Unreal Protein' and start flogging your dirt. Hey, I'm a 'business man'  :-X

Don't think when you're buying your favourite protein online or in GNC you're buying anything different.

No need for finance. You need a computer with GIMP, printer, a 1000 bucks and you're in business

Hahaha. Dickhead, it's all the same. MyProtein is 'cheaper' because they sell it in plastic bags straight from China. They're a middle man. 95% of these companies use the EXACT same Chinese supplier. Do you think a bunch of illiterate failed bodybuilders too old for G4P is going to spend years 'formulating' their own protein, extensively test it on human subjects, trademark the formula and sell it? Read what I wrote above. It's what they all do. And STILL Vince fails at it  ;D

Lol but I thought that protein provides the least profitability?  It must be because of shipping prices from china.

Shipping prices, import costs (if any) I know nothing about. I'm sure Vince will be here soon talking out of his ass, making shit up left right and center to sound knowledgeable.

Yes, that's what everyone does except there are minimal quantities.....this one being 300 boxes.  Also, this stuff is from China so I would avoid it at all cost especially since the price is way too good to be true

Personally what I think happen, and I obviously don't know this, is that there's bulk importers in the US/UK/EU/AUS that sell it for double or 2.5 the price, saving the end seller the hassle of importing. So all you need to do is to buy from him, stick your own label, pay a half starving bodybuilder 100 bucks and a lifetime of 'free' (Chinese shit) protein and you're in business. Maybe even buy a page in Flex between the 300 other Chinese powder sellers and away you go.

Vince, why don't you just accept you're not a salesman or business man.

By the way, what's happening with this 'secret formula' sat in a library for 50 years that those two dummies are ready to bust out. Give me the name and I'll link the place where they're buying it from. Will take me 3min ;)
