OT Unfounded emu oil rumour

[Guest guest]

Hello all,

 

I apologise for posting an off-topic subject but with the permission of the

author I am forwarding a mail regarding the unfounded allegation regarding

Australian emu oil. I don't use emu oil myself but I dislike intensely the

posting of rumours that could severely damage a supplier.

 

I do hope that if you see this allegation being repeated you will make an

effort to stop it.

Here is the post sent from Mark to the group where I first saw the rumour:

-

'Friday I had a conversation with someone allegedly involved with this

" BAD EMU OIL. " Rather than gossip I decided to " go to the source " as

they say- especially since a BRAND NAME was listed in the post from a

supplier and that brand name was mentioned by the person on this list.

Here are the FACTS directly from the BRAND NAME listed in that

posting last week by a particular seller of emu oil that regularly

posts and did post that message.

 

The company mentioned does NOT have any bad emu oil on the market.

Following is a letter from that company mentioned so we can put this to

rest.

PLEASE - Let's not do damage to ANY business on this message board - - or

ANY messaging posting board / group with rumours and innuendo. This is very

malicious and unethical.... There is nothing

wrong with picking up the phone and contacting folks BEFORE spreading

rumours that could do damage.

 

-------LETTER ------

The makers of Blue Stuff brand products want to be

on the record with the following true statements to

dispel unfounded and untrue statements recently

made:

* Blue Stuff brand is still an actively marketed

brand and user of emu oil. The daughter of the

inventor of the product now owns the Blue Stuff

brands and assets after her father's retirement.

The company's name is Blue Spring International. To

paraphrase Mark Twain, " Reports of our death were

highly exaggerated " .

* Blue Stuff brand consists of only the highest

quality products. Our SuperBlue pain relief product

(which contains emu oil as an ingredient) meets all

FDA standards as an OTC drug.

* The company does sell surplus emu oil from time to

time directly or through affiliated companies.

* All emu oil owned by and/or used in Blue Stuff

brand products is kept in professionally run cold

storage facilities to preserve freshness.

* All Blue Stuff branded finished product also go

though expensive laboratory testing as required by

the FDA to ensure quality.

* All emu oil used or sold by us is pure (no

fragrance, no preservatives, etc) and is re-TESTED

by these same laboratories for freshness and purity

before being used or sold.

 

We are quite upset by web site allegations that

imply that any of Blue Stuff's emu oil may not be

top quality or pure. The allegations are completely

absurd and FALSE. We are particularly appalled

someone claiming to be ---- a former employee was quoted

as confirming the bad things said about our product.

We do not know if this was perhaps the outright lies

of a jealous competitor or just the false

allegations of someone who did not know what they

were talking about.

 

We do appreciate the opportunity to set the record

straight. We hope we have assured you that our

product ---and emu oil is entirely pure and safe and

kept under the most ideal conditions and laboratory

tested for purity and freshness when used or sold.

 

Sincerely,

Steve Brown
