Default powerpro buyers beware!

i know there are a lot of guys on here that swear by powerpro and they should probably know about this. also for those who swear at powerpro there is a chance you got ahold of some of this bad stuff.

Thanks for the good heads up. Haven't bought any in a while since it lasts so long.

I think it's good that they are making people aware, but did they realize, the counterfitters have access to their website too. All they have to do is see what's wrong with their counterfit packages and fix it.

Just my opinion.

Thanks for the heads up!

BB, though some of the mistakes in the fake packaging can be fixed, some cannot. As well, I doubt they are worried about it, especially if it is being sold off the net.

That's true. Never thought of it that way. I've looked on eBay to see if I could find some counterfit PP, but from what I could tell, the ones I looked at were not fake.
