Amway Facts has posted a link to a Press Release about the Class Action Lawsuit brought up against Quixtar by Orrin Woodward, Randy Haugen, Fred Harteis, Billy Florence and co.
Here is a snip from the PR:
Since its start-up, the lawsuit claims, Quixtar products have become
significantly overpriced, “and are thus not sellable in the retail market.” In fact, the action asserts that it is “widely understood in Quixtar for years that (distributors) buy Quixtar products mostly to earn commissions or bonuses,” rather than to sell the products to retail purchasers. The plaintiffs allege that only 3.4% of Quixtar’s sales are sold to customers outside Quixtar’s distributor network.
“Instead of focusing on reducing prices
across the board on products, Quixtar has resorted to marketing the products solely to its distributors,” the
complaint asserts. In fact, “President Doug DeVos himself has stated … that ‘Quixtar is an internal consumption company,’ not a retail sales company,” the lawsuit asserts.
Further, the plaintiffs assert that since Quixtar’s products are “unmarketable to those not
participating in Quixtar’s comp plan, the sole way to make money is for a (distributor) to continually recruit new distributors who are also willing to buy and self-consume, or give away, the Quixtar products. This fact alone renders Quixtar a classic recruitment pyramid scheme.”
Yeah and you went along with it till someone pissed in YOUR Wheaties!
This isn't "negative PR", they simply are stating the truth. Negative ("trashing") PR is what the Alticor blog is talking about Orrin and TEAM.
—keep focused TEAMmates!
Team is in the Dexter Yager organization.
As far back as I can remember, early sixties, Yager and bunches of IBOs in his organization have broken the rules of conduct such as: sales to public, don't use the podium, for a pulpet. Don't stack your IBOs. Quit using the curiosity approach.
They break the rules to put there by Amway to protect them as business people. They claim Amway doesn't know how to do the business.
In order to receive bonus checks amounting to thosands of dollars, they need to fill out a form showing what products were moved through their group and personal sales for ten retail clients.
So in other words, Woodward, Brady, and the rest of "Team" unethically took hundreds of thousands of dollars from Amway in performance bonuses, profit sharing, ruby, pearl, emerald, diamond, and Q-12.
Now they have the audacity to blame Amway and spread their libel defamation over the net.
I would jump with joy if a bunch of platinum ibo's would form a class action lawsuit against them for the harm they have done to decent people building ethical businesses.
They cost me $60, and I'm not in the business.
