I would disagree with that entirely. Selling out a limited quantity of a heavily pumped product in a few days is just a marketing tactic, not a sign of going viral.
As for the reviews/ratings, I have held off telling you this until now, but you will recall a few days ago when you reported 35,000 magnemask reviews each for two products on the jd.com website? well I also noted those reviews a few weeks ago and found them incredible, so I stepped back in time through tens of pages of reviews to see if it was true. Turns out its not. There are several hundred magnemask reviews, but beyond that the reviews are for other products and from a time before the magnemask launch. JD never had more than several thousand in stock and they have not had stock in ages. In fact, in the lead up to the most important sales day of the year, they still have no stock.
Moving on the the next Magnemask seller : vip.com. They post their sales numbers on each page. numbers for the two most important products are about 3 to 4 thousand. They seems to sell a few units per day. Their current sales are significantly curtailed due to the special discounts going on at tmall.
Now consider tmall, The only retailer making any significant sales due to their exclusive discounts that they offer. tmall was recently restocked for the lead up to 11/11. Prior to that they had no stock for a long time. Since the restocking around 3 weeks ago, and the best sales price ever seen for the products, they have pre-sold about 4200 of the most popular red label units. They are currently selling at a rate of 100 or so a day.
So that's it. The entire country of China. And there are selling about 100 units per day or maybe 200 if you scrape together all the different product combinations.
I still have high hopes for Magnemasks. I really like what we are seeing in HK. And I expect it to continue as we go on. I'm just commenting on the bs hype shareholders have been fed regarding the China launch. It does not help to just swallow what they feed us. Remember this is from the same crew who just a few days ago released an asx announcement that called a 70% improvement in skin delivery of nicotinamide a 200% improvement.

Hi Smac56
Thanks for your great work.
For JD.com, when I use incognito settings in my browser, it seems having stocks for both sk-ii and olay magnetic kits. This might mean the products only sell within China. However I could be wrong.
