hey keep your reciepts and then use the product and then return it and get your money back. 100% statifaction guarantee.
the only time i ever spent money at gnc is when i was younger and didnt know about that policy.
try it, it works.

I know GNC charges too much, and maybe I am old fashioned, but it seems wrong to use all that stuff, and then take it back to get your money back even if it worked fine. You can get good quaility sups at Walmart or online, for much better prices.

If the sups didn't work, then that is a different story.

i dunno about USED BOTTLES - if u are that dissatisfied, why finish the damn thing in the first place?

And second of all, it may work, but not at my store...We don't tolerate cheapskates out here in So Cal

Unless your the store owner you gotta take it back. Its typed up as store policy on the back of your damn receipt.

"if not fully satisfied with this product return unused portion for a full money back guarantee"

The way i see it, it would be wrong to do this to any other store, but GNC deserves all this bullshit for their ridiculous prices in the first place.

Just my 2 cents.

Just my 2 cents. Not that i think doing this would be the right thing to do,but even if he is the store owner he would still have to refund the money according to the contract which is on the back of the receipt.The worse thing that could happen is he could refuse your service.And you could have a hard time sleeping.

hence the term ---- unused , not when it's all empty...

GNC deserves, hmmmm...I think ur pretty bitter...GNC is not KNOWN as a sports nutrition store, but more of a JACK OF ALL TRADES vitamin store...If you want better prices, go to a specialty store

I can see your concern hella.But there will always be people trying to play the systems,to GNC 100% money back means you will be pleased with the product and if your not i am sure they would not mind giving your money back to keep you as a customer.Although there are times where store policies hurt the chain if everyone would lower there standards and try this the policy would change,or GNC would go broke due to it.(But it would take a while due to the high prices)(lol)buy your protein from Schwartz and save your time.

nah, buddy...my store has a great rapport with all the customers, but the thing I have with other GNC stores is that they FAIL to educate the consumers about the proper usage of products, thus resulting in a higher number of returns... Alot of people buy at other franchises and try to return at my store, but what I suggest is that they return it at their POINT OF PURCHASE store, because the information needed to process the return will be traced backed to the original seller...For managers, too much returns = not enough sales rapport with the consumer = bad customer service...

That's why when a customer shops from protein, I generally tell them that proteins are mostly either egg/milk/soy based and that we have not have that technology to turn them mysteriously into BASKINS ROBBINS 31 FLAOVRS...I think that honesty is the key...

As for the customers, I also think that they should hold on to their end of the deal...I have had customers put caspsules of 'I DON'T KNOW WHAT' and try to pull it off as Xenadrine and tell me that the stuff sucks...What I do then is open up a real bottle of Xenadrine in front of them and refute their statement...It really shuts them up real quick...Being honestly dissatisfied with the products is one thing, but outright lying to get something for free is another...

As for GNC being expensive, go shop elsewhere for deals - I have a staff of well trained individuals - from a West Coast NPC Cal Collegiates BB, LVN (Licensed Voacational Nurse) student, a ISSA trainer/nutritionist at my disposal, so people gladly are willing to spend their money at my store...And no, not all GNCs are the same....

HellaYella, not knocking you man, but most ppl that work at GNC dont know shit and they sell products with all these false promises. You obviously know your shiat and thats good, GNC needs more guys like you workin at their store.
