Today’s tech world brings new challenges. A decade ago, there wasn’t a popular shopping website called Amazon. Today Amazon is a $233 Billion a year company and currently operates out of 288 Million square feet!

With the growing number of households with an Amazon Prime account, it can be very easy to make purchases via the online retail giant. However, when it comes to buying your consumable products on Amazon, is it your best option? After all, you’ve searched their listings and found the exact same product (or so it seems) for less money.

Fast shipping and great Amazon customer support, what could possibly go wrong with ordering your product from Amazon?

Well, for one, those that are selling that Network Marketing company’s product on Amazon are not authorized resellers. You could be taking a BIG RISK by purchasing through these third party retailers.

Here are 6 reasons why you should NOT purchase that product from Amazon.

1. Expired Product

The retailers selling the product on Amazon could be selling you a product they purchased a really long time ago. You could be purchasing an old or expired product. Expiration dates on packages are often manipulated. Like with any other supplement, the freshness of a consumable product is vital with regards to the effectiveness of the product.

2. Compromised Quality

When it comes to something you will be consuming, quality & safety is critical. When you buy from an unauthorized source, you don’t know how that product has been handled. Was it subjected to extreme temperatures? Is the package still properly sealed? These mishandlings and more can affect the quality & purity of the product that you receive.

3. Counterfeit Product

You’d be surprised how many copy-cats are out there selling knock off, popular products with cheap or counterfeit ingredients just to make a quick buck. It’s more common than you think. When you buy a consumable product from an unauthorized source like Amazon or eBay, you are taking a risk of getting a counterfeit product with ingredients that could be ineffective and a serious risk to your health.

4. Lack of Support

When you buy consumable products from an unauthorized reseller, you are denying yourself important support. An authorized, approved network marketing associate will offer a 100% money-back guarantee when you buy direct from them or their website. They also have specialists on hand to help with any specific questions you may have about the products.

5. Supporting Unscrupulous or Criminal Behavior

Another thing to consider is that in order to sell at those kind of low prices, the only way they can do that is to: #1 adulterate the product in some way, or #2 break network marketing company’s rules like using their loyalty rewards points to purchase for re-sale. LRP points are not intended to be used to resell with and anyone that is not an authorized seller and selling that purchased product on Amazon is breaking rules. Do you really want to give someone like that your business? Anyone who is willing to ignore the pricing rule cannot be expected to be honorable in any other way. They could be selling you anything.

Also, many network marketing companies products have been obtained illegally (i.e. stolen credit cards) and are being marketed on Amazon. Many of these unreputable reps even pose as the Network Marketing company themselves!

The actual Network Marketing company will NOT list their products or services on Amazon as a competitor to their distributors. Most companies have clauses in their policies and procedures stating that selling their products on Amazon is a violation of their rules & they generally terminate those distributors if they can find them. Do not support the rule-breakers.

Would you trust someone who isn’t following the rules or is acquiring the product through criminal, illegal measures? Ever think about what else they would do to break the rules? Like put phony product in the bottles or heavily dilute the product and put a cap back on or re-seal the top (which is very easy to do).

6. Deep discounts & Loyalty Rewards

Also, your approved associate will be able to offer you a convenient, no obligation Autoship where customers can save huge amounts of money and get the same low price the associates do. Simply select your favorite products to be shipped to you automatically each month, and you’ll receive major discounts. Plus, you’ll likely get loyalty rewards that you can use to purchase FREE product with. You won’t find these types of deep discounts and free product rewards on Amazon or eBay.

In Conclusion.

Sure, there is a chance you can receive legitimate consumable products from 3rd party retailers on Amazon or eBay. However, you are taking a great risk. Is saving a quick few bucks on taxes and shipping really worth not knowing that what you are putting into your body is completely safe?

When you purchase directly from an authorized, approved Associate, you can be assured that the product has been treated with the best care and shipped to you at peak quality.
