While watching this infomercial, the only thing I could think of was “money”.
This company is selling a product, not a service. You’re buying their product with your money, and getting virtually nothing in return. This company is not looking to help you out in any way. They’re hoping to sucker you in and once they’ve got you hooked, they have your money, and the deal is done.
But what about the money back guarantee? Make at least $500 in 30 days or your money back? Who says they have to follow through? There are such things as scams, which is what this is. They’re targeting suckers who don’t look into the product or company at all, but only hear the words “money back guarantee” and assume it must be true. Then, once they’ve wasted not only their money on the product, but also their money on eBay itself, they attempt to contact the “Online support center”; only to find out that there is no such thing. Shocker? Not quite.
It’s all about the money. You’re looking to make money off of their product; they’re looking to make money off of the suckers. So who wins? Seems pretty obvious to someone who doesn’t happen to be one of the suckers.
But what about all of the testimonials? What about Tito from Utah? He seems to have made it big, right? What about Steve’s fancy new house in Florida? There is no proof that these people have ever bought or used the product. What makes the most sense would be that Tito and Steve have real 9-5 jobs, and maybe even work for Mr. Dave Espino himself.
Not only is the idea of buying a product that seems “too good to be true” off of the television appalling, but the actual product they’re marketing is marketed towards not just suckers, but lazy suckers. The Internet has so much information on it, there is virtually nothing kept private anymore. Including “secrets” to making it big on eBay. Through extensive and carefully conducted research, it’s possible to find your own tips out there for how to successfully sell items on eBay, without spending the money on a book that supposedly tells you how. This infomercial just reflects how lazy and, quite frankly, dumb most Americans are.
