What I want to know is how Anthony got his price down below that of Vital Prime and is still managing to make a profit? I haven't paid much attention to this thread since I settle on buying from Vital Prime as they have a good product thats really cheap, so I completely missed the May 22nd or so landmark in the Res price wars. I might have to change my buying habits.

Note: I support no one but the person with the best price/quality ratio and now that may have changed and I want to know how, when just a few months ago Anthony said there was no way they were going to match VP?

Is the Res market as a whole finally coming down to earth (as I thought it must, ubiquitous weed and all that) or have the smart few locked into some super efficient producers in China. How is the quality of the new batch?

Edward,

I have just updated the price watch list this morning. Some links weren't pointing properly, and I also noticed alot of prices from some supplement companies have increased on the average of about $1-$3. Not much it seems, but many of these products were all under $20. I don't think Res will be coming down to earth for most consumers who buy products with 100mg or less in their capsules, it might be increasing.

Now the reasons could be many, so it's difficult to understand why pricing went up a bit for the larger supplement makers who make products with low amounts of resveratrol.

Didn't see nutrabulk.com listed, particularly their Resveratrol 100 mg 5000 Count for $389.00.

Nutribulk has been added to the list.

Although it says "Red wine extract" on the label, the supplement facts state "Polygonum Cuspidatum".
It appears to be a 50% powder and are 100mg Resveratrol capsules.

Cheers

Anthony, I noticed on your website there is a 3 week delay on the powder. I am a public adjuster working in South Florida, can I get it any quicker if I pick it up myself?

You can't pick up any products, unless it's more than 20 kilograms and you have pre-ordered it. We are not a "brick and mortar" business, sorry. It's one of the reasons we have lower than average prices, and I believe most folks who sell bulk powder ship it to you rather than allow you to pick it up.

I suggest you shop around and compare, if 3 weeks is just too long to consider. There are other bulk powder folks on the price watch list. We are definitely not the only ones that sell resveratrol, as always check their COA's, some have better quality than others.

Cheers
Anthony

Pricing for powder has been increased for one company, but members of Imminst.org have a special price of $65.

So, please become a member of the board and enjoy the special pricing.

thanks

Full member, even if you only decide to be a full member 1 month at $5.
You will be a full member for the rest of the year in my book, and get the discounted price.

Anthony, no offense ...you have a great product, and its great that you are active here, but not so great that I will pay 50% more for my next order than I did for my last. Sure I could spend $5 and get the discount, but I have a serious problem on principle alone in being forced to do so. Back to Vital Prime for me it is.

That's ok Mike,

we are moving away from the regular powder, but will continue to offer it for the folks here at the discounted price.
Besides $5 to support this forum is not a bad trade off for a very high quality product (100% on our last COA!) at a very low price.

I do plan other similar discounts in the future, so I believe it will be great if you become a member anyway.

Hi Everyone,

Zoolander has sent this notification out to me to buy the post or it will be shut down. So, I will be "Buying" this post. I have asked him if he wanted to shut the post down and bring it back as his own idea with prices on rsv to help the community as a service, and he declined.


In the future we'll get this squared away. There is a forum that is supposed to exist where censorship simply shouldn't happen. But a fight for another day...

From zoolander:
" Anthony,

I'm touching base re. the post that you started titled "Resveratrol price watch"
As previously discussed I will close the post that you made down unless you agree to pay the $125 for the commercial post.
Additionally, I ask that you refrain from signing off as Anthony from Revgenetics in your posts. This is basically stating that you are a supplier of resveratrol/commercial products and hence deemed commercial use of forums.

Anthony, as it currently stands, you have utilised our members to conduct market research as well utilising the membership to try and clinch sales. You have utilised the good will of an institute that is an educational not for profit institution.

If you have not agreed to pay what is owed within 12 hours from the time stamp of this letter I will close the above mentioned topic."[B]

Wow, I know some guys in the mob who would be proud of a bold shakedown like that. In all fairness to Zoolander, that he posted before we locked horns on the Freedom of Speech Forum, and this thread is not in that forum, which lends itself fair game for moderation/censorship. I and I agreed to table that issue for a time, but for your information Anthony, in the future we should repair the damaged Free Speech Forum (FSF).

Hi guys,

the Zoolander's post is very, very old. We actually made up a while back ago, so we have no issues anymore.
He basically hammered me on what I could/could not do...

So now, I walk the line.

If you IM me, and I see you are a member that wants the discount, you get a discount code.
You can also email me and tell me what your name is on this board, and I will check it, and then send you a special code you can use the rest of this year.

So for example, I can see hmm's post above, and can read that he is a registered user, not a member, so I could not give him a code at this time. It's only $5 for one month, and you get a discount code for the powder that you can use for the rest of the year.

Cheers
A

Thanks, Anthony. If I become a full member, then PM you to receive a discount code, then after I use that code, will you then be able to associate my user name with my discount code with my real name and my address?

Plus the fact that Vital Prime's still cheaper. I really can't believe how much the price for RevGenetics' powder has fluctuated- from $62 a little over a month ago to almost $100 now for 100 grams of P99 powder. I'm all for supply and demand and that sort of thing, but I think an explanation for the massive price flux might be appreciated.

Hi hmm,

I think we could do that, but why would I want to?

Our customer's confidence in our company to maintain privacy would be shot if we started naming some of the important people who use our products.

Why risk that?

Thanks for your honesty Anthony. Your question must be rhetorical because clearly you are better qualified to answer it than I am.

I was going to order resv for the first time next month and use the code to help out TheFirstImmortal, but those new prices i will pass, and goto VitaPrime. I'll keep checking back here and hopefully those prices will drop again so i can do what i wanted to do in the first place when the price was in the 60's range, and help TheFirstImmortal in the way i planned. I'm not interested in being a full member here at this time so having that deal when u become a member doesn't interest me.
