babyforyou Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Why would ABU sell the depend pull ups (with the prints)on there website? you can get them in any store and at walmart they are just under 6 dollars for a pack of 6 pull ups. At ABU your paying 9 dollars plus S&H SO with the ABU markup of 3 dollars then The shipping charge of at least 2 dollars. You would be paying 5 more dollars then if you just walked into walmart and got a pack.I can see the 3 dollar markup to make a small profit off of it but why would anyone buy them from them when there's a walmart or drugstore all over the place that sell them.. 1 Link to comment
lilannie Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 ABU has actually quite a few marked up items on their websites, as well as repackaged diapers that they claim as their own. The funniest are their "boosters", which are actually hazmat Pig mats made to soak up oil! What a rip-off. 1 Link to comment
d_drew12 Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 It's also less embarassing for those who get that way to just order them online. For that, you pay a price. Basically, you're adding a "middle man" now and paying a delivery person as well. The price of business, afterall, businesses are designed to make a profit not lose one. Link to comment

They can't be that comfortable inside your diaper. :/ Link to comment
