+ 12 Promo Bashing

ad

Seems like a lot of people either completely don't understand the concept of a promotion or are flat out ungrateful and unappreciative on the basis of having so much choice at their fingertips.

Let's get it straight for a second, wether it's 50% or 0.5% off, it's still a PROMOTION set by the source who has paid for the privilege to run it. It's not your coin on the line!!

Free Giveaways are exactly that, free. If you want to sample a sources line without putting your hand in your pocket, now is your chance. Keep an eye out and jump on in BUT don't wonder in to a Promotion expecting straight hand outs, bitching about how bad the deal is. You don't like 15% off buy 1 get 1 free?? Poor you!! Move on to the next one.

If it wasn't for this place not only would I be unable to acquire the vast majority of the items available here but I would be at the mercy of some Gym bro telling me his new shit is straight Fiya!!

Apologies if this comes across as a massive rant, just trying to offer a little perspective.

Alright. What I did was in bad taste and I got a big head over the promos. I've never had anything in life handed to me and I'm not a spoiled entitled little shit. I'm 38, so that makes my behavior and thought process behind it even worse. I sat in judgment on myself and am man enough to admit it. I made a mistake in suggesting to a source that his promo was ineffective and came off like an entitled fucking punk. I'd like to apologize to my Eroids brothers and sisters for that. Please accept my apology. If you need to neg me, feel free. I did not, however, hit up the source in PMs as someone insinuated and beg for freebies. I'll go crawl in my hole now and won't speak unless spoken to for a while. Thanks for checking me and keeping it real. I bust my ass and work hard for the money I make and I let these promos get to my head. I appreciate the promos I have gotten to try out sources and realize they are a nice way for sources to reach out to potential customers, not something we are entitled to. Some research on Google yielded that this source has been established for quite a while in the game and I'm a fool for questioning without researching a bit more. If I've alienated myself from some of you, I understand. I'm a man, not a spoiled little bitch. I'm here to face the music and apologize for my mistake. Like I said, if you need to neg me go for it. Just please don't ban me. I own up to my mistakes. Thank you.

Erm, a bit over the top mate no?

Your comments on that particular promo IMO were out of line but not half as bad or as plain ignorant as some I have seen in the past.

I'm just keeping it real.

Yes, I realize. I was waaaaaaay out of line.

I was born a man and will die a man. One man, one word. Humility is not beneath me and has been my greatest teacher.

Some folks are just right rude and ungrateful. Regular price from any source on Eroids beats the heck out of the going price locally for juice.

I wasn't aware of this, but it doesn't surprise me in the least. I stay away from the SI pages most of the time, because of the fanboys and/or idiots.
I order when I need things and if there is a promo, great, but usually there isn't. Just get what you need and move on. I just don't get the rest...

The ones who try to wheel and deal on top the promo being offerd are the guys that rub me the wrong way.....stop begging and trying to word things around in your favor. Your either in or out, its that simple.

The first one you see I paid for all of it. That was the first source I built a rapport with and trusted. I'm still new to aas, so haven't ordered much. The others? Yes, those are promos sources were nice enough to include me in and I will be ordering from them as I progress.

I have to fully agree. I've entered my fair share of promos to get a feel for a source or to trial I small amount of a compound from a specific lab/line but some of these cats are not only take take take but are complaining about the deal as they go.
