Click For Summary
A pink and black ladies' HWC apron was offered for sale at $40 plus $5 shipping. The price sparked debate among forum members, with some criticizing it as overpriced compared to eBay listings.

I completely agree! I love this site but there are some on here that have this attitude that they are better than others. Condeming those for selling things, fb, internet, ebay. The truth of the matter is we are all INDEPENDANT Consultants free to run our businesses the way we choose under the parameters of HO. Therefore IMO I think it is HO's job to police their guidelines. I personally think that those that have so much to say about others are just a bunch of sour grapes. I wonder how much business that they are doing being that they have all of this time to search PC on the internet "just because"! Sorry for the rant but i've been reading a lot of posts condemening consultants.

OMGoss Lauren,

This is almost word for word what I am thinking. I've been shot down before for mentioning this, but if some would put as much effort and time into their PC business as they do here, they would be very successful. I'm only going on here to get flyers and glance over things for less than 10 minutes a week now. I've set my goal for Disney World and I'm focusing on my business. Many here may be in a difficult family situation, and shouldn't be scolded for their choices.

I do the same on here and I love it a wealth of information but I've been really disturbed the last couple of months and just finally had to say something. I don't sell anything on ebay and I don't mention PC on my FB, but I honestly don't care if someone else does. I buy things on ebay all the time and I know that I'm taking my chances. If I buy a coach bag on ebay and it turns out to be a fake, I don't think poorly of coach, I figure I got what I deserved because I bought it on ebay. People host and attend my kitchen shows for me and PC. They know that they are going to get my knowledge of the product and customer service and all that goes with ordering through a consultant. And if someone doesn't want to buy a stone off of me because they can get it on ebay well then more power to them. I just don't have the energy or the time to be so trivial. PC is an awsome company and I have full faith in those at HO whose JOB it is to police and enforce the rules. I just don't think it should be other consultants just looking to turn someone in.
Thanks for aggreeing with me! Hopefully I'll see you in Disney!!!
 
So it's okay for many people to beg to buy promotional items off the rest of us when we earn them, but then it's not okay to offer them for sale if we don't want or need them?If you wanted the apron, you should have earned it. If you didn't earn it, it's no one's fault but your own. If you want to buy it, then you pay the price.
 
The apron has sold guys. Why is everyone still wasting time arguing about it? LOL

That's what I was thinking. Let it rest already. Pick on someone else for awhile. :D

That's my exact thought on the subject!
