First of all, the website will not get you customers unless you advertise, and MK prohibits it. It's not a magic bullet like it is presented. Just having a website means nothing. Every consultant's site is just a reproduction of every other, just with a different suffix.

You don't receive referrals from the MK website unless you are at star consultant level. So $200 wouldn't do it. It takes an $1800 or more to be in the consultant locator for your zip code. And even when I was active, I found it to be unreliable at best.

You are eligible to send back anything you purchased within the last 12 months.

You pay the shipping to ship it back to the company. I'm not sure about the sales tax.

Don't waste your time having 50% off sales to your customers or other such things. Everyone has seen it before, so it's no deal to them. And most people know that you pay 50%, so they expect a bigger discount. Yes, you might sell some, but not enough.

Okay...now I'll let those who have sent back inventory give you their side of it.

Well, when I called, I ask how much I can get back and it's not as much as I thought.
But I know what you mean when you say send it back as soon as you can, I have until Aug. 31st. and then I don't get anything, and even this small amout is more that I would get if I sell it because it probably will take me to long and I won't see were the money went. I can pay one small bill off. I will just have to get what I can and get out.

Thanks ladies for the replies, I appriciate it.

Well, as far as the star prizes, I only had 2, they are the Pink Phone and the Barbie doll, THe Barbie doll I'm thinking of trying to sell on ebay, not sure about the phone

hi, does anyone know the MK# to call in canada to return my inventory & find out the amount i can return?

Thanks!

Here is the number I found: 1-888-411-Mary

If that doesn't work, call 972-687-4700 (the main MK office) and ask them for the number.

Thanks everyone! I couldn't find the canadian mk phone # on receipts, invoices, etc... After much searching I finally found the # only on the very bottom of the online community page for consultant login in small print. It's hardly noticible. 1-877-411-6279.

I just recieved my from in the mail. So I'll be returning my inventory this week.

I'm from Toronto, Ontario.
I still haven't mailed my inventory back yet. It's taking so long just to count the items & calculate the whole sum.
I called MK headquarters in mississauga today & asked about items without boxes that are unused. The lady told me not to ship them back. I wonder if she was just assuming that it's not allowed or if MK really won't give a refund on those. What do you gals think? Should I ship back the unused items that I don't have boxes for?

The lady also told me that the refund process takes 6-8 weeks for me to get the refund cheque after my inventory has been recieved by MK. Sigh!!! By that time It'll already be late October or even November. I was hoping to recieve the money in September so that I can pay for my tuition. Now I may actually have to take 1 term or even 1 whole year off school. Well I bet that I wouldn't be concentrating well in school anyway worrying about my debt. So it may actually be a good thing to use the time to sell on eBay & pay off the debt. I'm kinda ok with it now. It's not the end of the world. I just don't know how my family & friends will react. Especially my parents.

hhmmmm........I wonder if there's a way to speed up the refund process like calling MK up constantly & ask them to speed it up. But I already told that lady I am in desperate need for the refund to pay for my tuition in September b/c I'm desperately broke. But she didn't give a d*amn. Her attitude was really horrible. She was like: "So What!" I can't remember her exact words but she said something like, "that's too bad!" She sounded very insensitive & even rude on the phone. I hope that the next time I call it'll be a nicer MK employee.
