Not only are they necessary they should be kept full,clean and fresh! I am more probable to buy a product if they have testers and samples available! Both are a must! Just plain common sense! Bella Zella: I wish all the retailers understand this...

Sesame, I’m a little confused by the image as it looks like bud. But from my experience, bud offers a really good service and make sure there are as many testers as possible…they would even offer samples to customers just to make sure they are ok with the products. in fact, i think other retailers should follow their example in service level. thought I clarify this with you.

Cindy: That’s just a generic picture used for the entry. It doesn’t refer to Bud. My entry did not mention Bud if you realised. But maybe I should change the image or put a disclaimer since it has confused you. Bud offers excellent service and I don’t want others to be mistaken.

I tend to impulsively purchase products that I tested first. If I haven’t experienced it then it’s much easier for me to walk away.

Nikita: Haha…so it’s a good thing for your pocket with stores that do not provide testers.

i'm actually more for samples (for skincare) and testers (for makeup). it's not that expensive to have testers, esp when most stores have more than 100% markup! stop being stingy, will ya? lol Daphne: I share your sentiments! Such a little cost and these retailers don't know what they're missing.

they have their concerns fo rnot showing testers. as consumers, we definitely want to try the product first before purchasing. perhaps, we can do someting to let them know how important testers are? akiki: Actually it cost them very little since they only need one tube or bottle. They should consider this when marketing the products.
