Essential 1 Price Hike

I am a huge fan of Andrew Lessman’s products, including his Essential 1 vitamins, which I have been buying for years. I saw they were on sale and went to scoop a year’s worth up, but found Andrew is now charging the same price for all the formulas, regardless of the amount of D3 included. I was OK with the pills being reduced from 400 (last year) to 360 but the other change added $30 to the price I paid last year. I am on the fence about a repurchase.

lHi Debba, Like yourself, I would be lost without my Essential 1. If the vitamins work, why stand on ceremony. You need to realize that everything lately is going up due to supply and demand. For instance, I needed gas for my vehicle and noticed that the price went up $.20 overnight. So t he cost of living is going up as well. Maybe someday we will be back to normal, whatever normal is. For now, I would rather purchase as long as I can afford it, rather than be without. Besides, my physician loves the reports he receives, so why stop now.

The 400 quantity for $79.90 was a size usually only offered during TS. Can you buy a smaller amount to last for a few months till the next TS?

  Thanks JJ22 – that’s a good idea! Although it sounds like all of the versions are going to be the same price going forward, if the quantity went up, that would be great! It’s a $30 price hike over last year. I do like the product; it just seems like a very big bump, even with inflation. I appreciate your suggestion! Yours, too, Oodiebom!
  
  I did buy the Nighttime, which I swear by, and got the saffron from the Procaps’ site, since it is on backorder on HSN.
