Actually the idea came with their new CO. He was in another industry where this was or is a common practice.

Doesn't everybody have some sort of rebate program these days??? My disty just told me DS has one this year. If everyone is jumping on the bandwagon, I guess it's not a bad idea? Previous owner never took advantage, I'm just now learning how it all works.

Almost every lotion company has a rebate program is one form or another.

I dislike rebate programs....if they would like to give me my money back then ...do it now...not 6 months from now...charge less if you can upfront...I do not need any lotion company to hold my money.....I find it annoying...

I agree DWhite. If they're willing to give money back why not just discount my purchase now??

I agree as well that I dislike the rebate program, but I also believe that it is what encourages the internet sales, especially when the product is getting dumped at the end of the year.

We carry only Supre and our brand. I suppose being in Dallas, and Supre being Dallas-based helps keep the cost of buying the lotion down. And marketing our own brand helps as well...cuts out the middlemen so we can sell a quality lotion for a good price. I recently went into a smaller salon near my house so I could try some DS lotion just to see if I liked it, and also since after 2 years of being here, I've tried all our lotions and wanted something new!! I still like Supre though, and love ours. But of course everyone's skin is different, so in agreeance with a lot of you, it all comes down to what you are passionate and knowledgeable about...they look to us as the experts here, so if we tell them a lotion is good for them, they usually go with it.

I wonder if all the eBay sellers are getting good rebates?

I've gotten rid of the Caribbean Gold and Australian Gold and have focused on Designer Skin- great quality and results.
