Gender:  |  Bulk Nutrition under new ownership don't like the term "sells out", but I have been purchased. I still have a hand in the operation of the business. I put my entire life into this company, I couldn't just turn it over. A rumor got started a few months ago that I was looking to get out of the industry, which is about 75% true. I suffered from some pretty serious health issues at the start of the year. Almost all due to stress. My family is very important to me and I refuse to risk my health for money/greed. The guys that are taking over my site are A+ guys. I wouldn't have sold otherwise. It will take about a week to get all the bugs worked out. In the end it is best for everyone. They can ship from two places, where I could only ship from one. They will carry around 2000 more items than I currently have. I will be in charge of the bulk powder aspect, which is what I really enjoy. I look forward to massive expansion in that area. As far as my future plans, it's pretty simple. I'm going to take 3-4 months off from the industry. I need it to clear my head, get my health back in order and regain my creative side. I will always have a hand in this industry. I love it too much. I see so many area's where I can improve things. I don't know what capacity I'll come back in, but I will be back. I appreciate the good words. I've worked very hard to have a good reputation. Hope this answers your questions. Mike McCandless |

Gender: | Interesting...any idea if this is the reason BN was doing a massive sell off of their ephedra and generic superdrol powders? I bet the acquiring company doesn't want to stock these for legal reasons. Hopefully BN doesn't loose too much of their unique product inventory (bulk powders and prohormones) and turn into a clone of all the other supplement stores on the net. As long as the new company ships fast and has good customer support then the switch shouldn't affect BN shoppers too much. |

Gender: | The way I hear it they will be taking on 2500 more products on top of what they have now and mike will be around after a while to help them specalize in the powder line. Supposed to be the best prices around in powders. Ordering anything right now is somewhat of a mess until they get straightened out. But I'm not sure about the sell off. I suspect you may be right. |

Gender: | I just ordered (without knowing about this) and it shipped out a little slower than usual so that could have been a symptom or just a normal thing. Other than that everything went off orderwise without a hitch..so far. |
