I noticed a post on Amthrax about a large number of Xango boxes stacked in a garage and thought it was interesting. Despite the fact that there was no place to park a car in there, the gentleman managed to jam his motorcycle in there - a fast glimpse of it while the camera wanders around the garage.
A number of folks in my neighbourhood have their garages completely stuffed with storage items, leaving little room for a car to be parked in there. It's completely insane. Unless you are only there for a short period of time, downsize! The majority of people will tell you that a garage has only one purpose: to provide a space to put your car. This is not a storage facility.
We had a standard-sized house with a two-car garage for our Platinum. His automobiles were in the driveway, waiting for him. I went into their garage and parked my car there. Even though there were a lot of Amway boxes in there, it wasn't so crowded that it couldn't fit one or two cars in there if they were pushed up against the wall and stacked on top of each other. I'm not sure if this was for personal consumption or for sale, but I have a feeling that the most of it was given away as samples, and I'm talking about XS Energy Drinks and Perfect Water in this case. As you recall, our Platinum was defrauding Amway by receiving free sample cases in exchange for calling in to say his customer didn't like the goods, and Amway would promptly send him a replacement. That allowed him to continue to drink and hand out samples.
The true reason automobiles couldn't be parked in this area was due of the large number of tables. You'd be forgiven for thinking this was a boutique managed by the Addams Family. Even in the weak light, we were able to see almost all of the Amway products on the table, as well as nearly everything else that was sold in the catalogue. Every sort of Artistry makeup is available on a single table. Another table is dedicated to skin care. Nutrilite is located on a different table. On another table, there are food bars and drinks. Cleaning supplies are kept on another table. And so forth. A rough estimate is that there will be 12 to 15 card tables. A car would be a lot of fun to drive into that place and bust some of that nasty Amway junk!
I'm not really sure why they chose to arrange the garage in this manner. After all, it wasn't like there were only unique Amway products on display. They also had a variety of other items stored in the garage, including recreation equipment, automobile products, and tools. We're not talking about the atmosphere here. If this was going to be set up like a store, where consumers could come in and check at the things before placing a purchase, the Platinum didn't say anything to us about that during our interview. The truth is, they didn't say very much of anything at all. Simply herded us all in to take a look; there must have been about 30 or 40 IBOs present that day; and we had to squeeze in between people and heavily laden tables to do so. The experience is even worse than going to an electronics store on Black Friday! Everyone just sat around and talked because they couldn't move because they were crammed in like sardines. After a while, after the Platinum determined that we'd had enough time to admire his Amway store and worship it, we returned to the house for an Amway meeting with him and his family.
Ambot once had to go to the Emerald's house to pick up something he needed. Alternatively, he could have been dropping something off. Obviously, I'm on a mission for the Platinum Corporation. When Ambot returned home, he informed me that he had observed the garage. According to him, there were more than 100 boxes of Perfect Water in the room. The Emerald informed him that those were the total sales for the month from his customers. The market for pricey water, in my opinion, is non-existent. Maybe those consumers were IBOs in his downline who were looking for work. The Emerald, on the other hand, was unable to park his car in the garage.
The key question is whether he truly had clients for all of those cartons of water (which seems implausible) or whether he was stockpiling stuff and putting his PV up there for show.
We'll never know the truth. Ambot, on the other hand, did not hoard products in anticipation of future purchases. Everything he had purchased from Amway was a disaster in and of itself. After Ambot had had enough of this fraud, it was a lot of fun putting them in the garbage can.
Spending money on Amway is equivalent to throwing money away. We might have just as well burned twenty-dollar bills instead. In the long run, it would have been less expensive.
