TRX suspension trainer
 

Anyone had any issues with the TRX suspension trainer? I've seen a few for sale and they seem to be growing in popularity.

You need to be very careful with the authenticity of that product.

Yes,be careful.our customers have some issue selling these products.

What is this device?

I think it's another Chinese trainer Lumberjack - You know - the oriental gentleman that shows you exercises

:pop2:

TRX is big in USA, just like the other workout products that you all already know about. It's on late night infomercials just like any other bullsh*t and it sells like cocaine.

So is it a workout DVD Unknown5454?

:typing:

No, it's a silly set of ropes and bands in which you can strap to doors and whatnot to perform lots of exercises at home. The idea is not new, but the way it has been presented and it's price point is intriguing for most.

That's how you make big time cash. Rehash old ideas in a new way that magically blows people's minds. You just have to have the right funding.

Ah like the stuff promoted by The Natural - if you have a door you have gym!

what sort of issues, chargebacks from customers or vero taking it down?

this item is big time vero almost like p90x, you definitely will get taken down by amazon/ebay and sometimes you might get a nice "letter"

yea when i used to sell p90x way back when.. i was looking into other exercise dvds of the same sort.. and i noticed that TRX, i never sold it because for one..
they have THEIR OWN EBAY ACCOUNT
so basically its like trying to sell Rosetta Stone on ebay, it wont happen lol, however, if any1 has luck doing so would love to hear about it..

I did notice a guy alternating p90x, TRX, and Zumba that is still alive and has been for a while...wtf homeboy must work for Elame.

they got feedbacks?

They're not going to last. I can tell you that much. P90X reports you to ebay for even selling 1 DVD of theirs, regardless of its authenticity, and like Gman91189 said, the maker[s] of TRX have their own ebay account that they sell their stuff on, and they also report ebay listings. So eventually you're going to get banned for selling those items. You might last a week or 2 months, but they're eventually going to get your accounts closed.

Be really careful... if you don't know what your doing, you will be blowing through accounts like crazy :doh:

Years ago (more than 25) I hadf something similar. It promised to shed inches from your waist and help to lose weight - a LOT of weight.

It was two ropes that hooked onto a door. Each rope had a pulley, and loops at each end - one that went around your ankle and the other that you would hold on to. This made leg-lifts easy and I used it religiously. Not much in the way of results, though.

When I went to my doctor for a checkup, I brought it with me. He laughed so hard, he nearly peed in his pants! He told me I had a better chance of losing weight by eating 3 meals a day at McDonald's.

These silly things seem to recycle themselves. And with the infomercial companies, they have doctors on their lists that will endorse ANYTHING for the right price. They put the package together KNOWING it is total BS to take money from innocent people. Then, they sue people who sell the knockoffs. But really, WHO IS MORE CROOKED HERE???

Anyone who knows me KNOWS I am not in favor of counterfeits. Except maybe in these cases...
