Hey guys/girls

Good news - we've just dropped our prices on two of our top 10 best sellers - Optimum 100% Whey in the 4.7kg and 2.3kg prices. The Optimum is a WPI/WPC mix in a variety of flavours (we have all Aussie flavours in stock at present, except Strawberry in the 4.7kg which just sold out):

Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard Protein Powder 4.7kg

Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard Protein Powder 2.34kg

Oh and some more good news for you, we've dropped the price tariff for free gifts. Previously it was $200, it's now $120.

With orders of $120 or greater, you can now add in a free Shaker Bottle | Protein Shaker Bottle | Bodybuilding Shaker Bottle

Hey Aminoz,

I see you have changed the layout with my suggestion with the products listed down the side instead of a drop down box! Great improvement.

With prices on the ON Whey so low now it would be hard to buy somewhere else. I just have to decide on the right flavour!

Hey LJ, thanks for the feedback on the left menu. I think it makes it much easier to navigate around the site - thanks again.

Good luck with the flavour choices! I haven't received any complaints on any of these flavours - probably why the Optimum is our best seller.

Great price for the sale in Australia, but now with the high dollar, you just can't beat buying it direct from the US

Don't know it would get through customs?

Before we began selling supplements, I tried importing whey personally and it got held up by customs and sent back. Ended up losing all the shipping and paying a restocking fee.

Apparently, you cannot import milk products as I was advised by customs - whey protein is a milk derivative.

Personally, I don't believe it's worth the risk. I am not saying that because we sell it, but from crunching the numbers. You may save $5-10 on a bag (eg. optimum 100% 4.7kg) but:

1. You risk it being sent back and you losing your shipping cost (around $50-70 AUD)
2. You have to wait 1-2 weeks for it to arrive

On a personal level, I cannot justify the risk associated with the potential gains.

I agree with Jay.

Hi Aminoz, Just wondering if you are going to be getting the new ON flavours in?

aminoz · 30-11-2009, 09:56 AM

In the 10lbs bag, there is only Choc/Straw/Rocky Road/Vanilla available in Australia. The importer has not yet brought other flavours on board so they are currently not available in AU.

The 5lbs tub have more flavours available and we have nearly all the Australian flavours currently in stock:

Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard Protein Powder 2.34kg
