@snilf Very well said. +1
Ridiculous assertions that someone is being ripped off or conned
How many times has this scenario played out here? Someone purchases product X, and tries it in their system. They report positive results, that it works as advertised, that they got their money’s worth, that they are happy with the purchase. Then someone, usually having zero experience with the product, replies with something like: “No, you’ve got it all wrong! You’re being ripped off! You’re being conned!
Does anyone else understand how ridiculous and absurd these kinds of assertions are?! The consumer who actually put up their own money and took the time to evaluate the product in their own home/system reports it works as advertised, they are happy with it, that they got their money’s worth. Then someone else claims they were ripped off?!
Imagine an agency investigating consumer fraud getting a complaint like this: “My neighbor is being ripped off!” “No, no, he thinks it’s great, does everything he expected it to. He’s very happy with it, but I just know he’s being conned!” Do you seriously think they’re going to open any kind of investigation into it?
You can disagree with what someone says about the effectiveness of a product all you want, but to say they have been defrauded, when they report the exact opposite, is patently ridiculous.

@artemus_5 enjoyed your rant. Have a nice day. Hope you feel better. BTW I did not run to the moderators. Talk about self importance or is that impotent.

Placebo effect.. shouldn’t if work both ways? If you believe it would work then it may appear working. So if you believe it won’t work then it may appear not working. I don’t think OP, in the other thread, ever forcefully said you should get it. He just wanted to share his experience with other members. He even specified that if you don’t believe it then it is not for you so stay away. If his saying perks your interest then you investigate it yourself. I don’t see any burden on OP to scientifically prove anything when he was truthful about his experience. He is not running a magazine or trying to sell you something. If the subject doesn’t interest you just move on. Is it so difficult to do? You don’t have to be a crusader, trying to save the world when the other side does not want to be saved, in fact, is perfectly content. |
