| Just for fun, I typed in "otrivin" on ebay and there seems to be some people selling the sample packs sent out in the otrivin baby program. These packs are different to the regular retail packs sold by Otrivin as they clearly have written on them "sample only not to be used for resale". I find it really disgusting that some people would try to profit from this program and this site, in reselling products that were given to them to sample and share with friends.

| i think it is disgusting... they get approved for something to trial and then sell it... i think this one is the worst one it actually includes the dunstan baby language cd and the madame flavour tea http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Otrivin-Saline-Baby-Nasal-Drops-Kit-15-x-5ml-vials_W0QQitemZ130322381789QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAU_Baby_Wholesale_Bulk_Lots?hash=item1e57d1bbdd&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14 | | | |

| Wow I cant believe people would stoop as low as to sell something they get for free. She has listed herself as a sample rep LOL If the program doesn't suit your needs or lifestyle then dont apply its pretty simple. | | | |

| Hi Guys, Thanks so much for your chat about someone selling Otrivin Saline Baby packs on ebay. This is really disappointing and actually against the law to do so. We send out samples in good faith to our members,and as part of the terms of participation we expect you guys to do the right thing. I really appreciate you taking the time to let me know this is happening.
Thanks
Lou & the Vibe team | | | |

| OMG, what a nerve! I didn't see the auction, but I think it is wrong! I agree with Trixsta - if the product does not suit your needs or lifestyle, then don't apply!
I do know of other people who apply for every freebie going (anywhere on the net) just because they can. I only apply for what I think I would like to try to see if I would become a regular user of. What a waste of time and money these companies are going through. | | | |

| That's not right!
So someone has probably missed out on trying the products and this person doesn't even use it how it was intended to be used, but instead tries no make money from it!
I hope they find out who it is & they get banned. | | | |

| I hope Vibe Village finds out who it is and deals with them, I don't like missing out on programs and parties but I understand that sometimes I just either don't fit the criteria or just don't get in, but to have people miss out so someone can sell it, I'd be very annoyed if I had of applied for that one. NOT FAIR ON OTHERS!! | | | |

| That's DISGRACEFUL!! I checked out the listing and it too has the tea and the dvd with it too . . . . im amazed they dont sell the 'vibevillage' letter that comes with it!! They are selling the whole box that they had delivered to them!! Why would you apply for a party or program you know that you wont use!?!?!? These members of vibevillage and ebay could possibly wreck the whole 'VIBE' that comes with vibevillage. I was going to send the lady a message through ebay (in a nice way of course), letting her know how disappointed i am in this - but i thought - 'pfft, she probably wouldn't even care, so whats the point!' I wish people would just be loyal and trustworthy. | | | |

| Did you see the price she had on them! $50. This is just so disgraceful. Why apply for a program you have no interest or need for and take a party off someone who could really have spread the vibe well. If I find anyone selling their Milk Baby products on ebay I will be dropping them a message as I really wanted to do that program but wasn't successful. Admin you need to do something about this again. Her name is Tania and she lives in Daisy Hill Queensland, if that is any help in finding her. | | | |

| i wonder if she will take the listing off now that she has been noticed?? Does vibe village ban the people who disrespect the 'vibe way'? I think they should, as it is unfair for other members - like yourself who missed out. How did you like products mummy2jj?? i think the milk skin products are fantastic! and they really work! That's the best bit ;o) | | | |

| im glad you like it - although its a little sad your hubby doesnt like it - but at least your little boy can get the benefit from it.
Hmmmmm . . . . that auction ended, and no one bid on it - so she RELISTED the item!!! Obviously, she really doesn't care about other peoples disappointment in her. She reduced the price from $49 down to $29. Some people are just so clueless! | | | |

| Admin - I also spotted a listing for 5 otrivin samples + bonus dvd while searching for otriving. Here is the link:

I hope this is not another viber trying to cash in on these samples. | | | |

| Sadly enough . . yes, it is a different person. I still dont understand why these people apply for the parties and programs and they dont use them or have a need for them. WHY APPLY?!?!?! I dont know what else to say about them . . . . im speechless!! | | | |

| My goodness, how disgusting that people get these things to try for free and then try to sell them.
I did not apply for the Octrivin one because I don't have small children and thought it was not fair for me to apply.
I only apply for the things I want to try and if I like them then I start buying them and tell my family and others about them. | | | |
