Eduardo AAVM · « **on:** 22 Jul 2003, 12:32 pm »

Hello I am looking for your opinions and experiences on the Bedini's Clarifier, I am interested on it for personal use and also for business if it is a good product.

Has any of you used them ? What are your experiences ?

Thank you

Is this for your own use, or are you looking for lines to pick up for your dealership?

Well, mmm, let's say 50-50 in fact I just sell things I use and test, if I like what I get then I try to make business.

In any case would it vary your answer if it is for my personal use or for doing businesses ?

By the way incredible DIY/tweak site, I link to it from my forum...

I have no experience with it, whatever it is. However I think you should be more up-front about your dealer activities.

Hello John, please can you explain what do you mean with up-front ?

I don't get the idea ... Do you consider I am dishonest ?

or that I should let know why I am asking opinions about something ?

JohnR · « **Reply #5 on:** 22 Jul 2003, 01:40 pm »

Up-front -- meaning that you should be careful to disclose when you have a financial interest in something that you are discussing.

You might also like to look at the FAQ question for dealers:

Well at this point I have no other than technical interest on it.

Does it works or not ? Thats all I want to know...

Anyway sorry, I will read the faq.:

Outside of these areas, you are not allowed to promote or recommend products that you sell

I don't sell in USA and it is not an ettempt to bring attention to some product, it wasn't an add in disguise.

Did my post looks like that ?

Quote

however, use your signature or avatar to clearly identify yourself as a dealer

Well, it complies doesn't it ?

In the future I will observe the rules more carufully... but I consider myself to always be up-front, and respectful of rules and not doing anything wrong this time.

I apologize if I did...

JohnR · « **Reply #7 on:** 22 Jul 2003, 02:32 pm »

Not being in the USA is not relevant...

Anyway, look, you already said you were interested in it for business reasons. Being up-front would mean that you would have said that in your first post, instead of later when someone asked about it. That's all, really

A Mexican high end store? I didn't see any stores out there, except for one in a very spendy mall past the Chapultepec forest, heading towards Xochimilco.

I bought a used demo model of the original (I'm not sure if the new one is the second or third version) directly from Bedini for $35. I had a friend over to do a "blind" test (actually we just took turns covering our eyes). We both concluded that it made a SLIGHT, but noticable, improvement. One thing I can tell you for sure is that it did "fix" an old CD that had been skipping but that might have been more from the cleaning solution than the machine. They say that the newest version is something like 4 times as powerful as the original so maybe it improves the CD's even more. I considered it a great bargain at $35 but I don't know if I'd spend $189 on it.

Yes I am in Mexico I am not a store as it is expensive and not manageable, but using internet an personal auditions in home is a better way to survive.

John R I tried to ammend the issue and I edited the first post... Is it ok ? I apologize, I wasn't aware of it...

Hmen I am thinking only in the cheap model which is said to be improved again. If 189 USD is expensive in USA it is insane in Mexico.

I compared the Bedini Ultra Clarifier with Furutech RD-2 a while ago. See link.

Thank you John L, I read some postsat AA but I didn't get to yours...

Tell me one more thing please, are the results different or in the same line when using the bulk tape eraser from RS or similar ones ? DO you know something about it ?

You have answered the question.

Ah!, I should go back to Mexico and see my amigas, hang out @ Mama Rumba...órale!

Yes it is much money here, but also there are high end buyers who pay almost 50% more over the list prices in USA.

Or should I say insane for no audiophiles

Yeah, those people that live in houses guarded by machine gun armed guards. Alvaro, my trusted driver took me around. Next time he said he'd take me to his favorite *professional* amiga--Rico!!!!!!!!

I want to go party in México!!!

Well I do not know what's your point her but I guess you have a partial view of what Mexico is.

And I am not going to discuss it here...

Psychicanimal · « **Reply #17 on:** 23 Jul 2003, 10:35 pm »

Plaza Azteca is the name of that spiffy, totally fenced shopping mall. I pulled out a receipt from my wallet with a girl's name written. I have no idea who she is...

Partial? I used to do sales calls in Mexico--never been there as a tourist. I've eaten on the street and I've eaten in Yupis/Insurgentes w/ one of your prettiest models. Alvaro took me to the high class neighborhoods and to his own hood, too...

Regardless, I would like to live there (Not in DF nor Puebla). Mexico's awesome!
