----------Floss tensioner offered on the web ??? ------(5 stars
guaranteed)

This is the 55th version of my question (re. patented new floss
holder), and it is reposted due to changes. The floss holder's page:
http://www.geocities.com/emailerss/

This floss tensioner is good for about 250 all-teeth flossing ( 250
use).

Please answer the questions briefly, and your  comments following the
last brief answer would be welcome.
1.  Is it clear from this web-page how to use this product, and how
many minutes have you (the researcher) spent on it?

2. Floss tensioners (with no floss) could be delivered by USPS in a
$0.40 non-certified mail -- stamped or e-stamped (in theory estamping
could provide tracking of shipment in case of dispute, therefore is
prefered ).
21.If a big & known company would take the orders and promise the 
delivery, then
211-   would you order?
212-  what's the most money you would risk? 
213.  would you order with other shipping ?
214- how many pieces would you expect for that money?
215- when would you place your first order and in what $-amount ?
216- what do you think could be  the biggest first order (in $ ) you 
could place by teaming up with friends (not  to resell but  to get
certified and free Shipping) and then you send the product out to them
 by $0.40 mail? Shipment would be certified and free in this case. How
many pieces would you expect for the money?

 3. If a small company would take the orders and promise the 
delivery, then
311-   would you order?
312-  what's the most money you would risk? 
313- would you order with other shipping?
314-  how many pieces would you expect for that money?
315-  when would you place your first order and in what $-amount ?
316- what do you think could be  the biggest first order (in $ ) you 
could by teaming up with friends (not to resell but  to get certified
and free Shipping )? Shipment would be certified and free in this
case. How many pieces would you expect for the money?

4. Would you like to buy, and what is the highest price you would pay
for a sixpack in a grocery store (not online) ?

5. What would be your first order in dollars and the number of
tensioners (no floss as usual) expected if you could place the order
with a known US company, you would get it in certified mail and free
shipping, but the product would be manufactured outside the US and
mailed from there. What is the longest delivery time you would accept?
 
Thank you.

All answers deserve and get 5 stars .

1. Yes.  5
2.
211-  probably not.  I'm not crazy about doing mail order to begin
with and this is the type of item I'd prefer to buy in the store.
212-  $5
213.  not necessarily
214-  20
215- if I ordered, it would have to be an impulse buy (again I'd
rather purchase something like this in a store). $5
216- not appealing to me at all.

3.  All my answers are the same as for #2

4. Yes, this is exactly where I would buy the item.  $2-5
5. $5, 20, 2 weeks

thank you very much . very helpful

Even though I am not a researcher, here is my take on your product.
1. No- If you showed someone doing it maybe.  I want to see hands
putting the string on.  I spent 5 min looking at it.  There are too
many choices.  Also, It will take an hour and a pocket knife to take
off the string.
211. No- I would not order not because a big company was not involved.
 The product is to confusing for me.  Too complex.  It looks like a
weapon. The ones in the store are diposalable or I would use a
toothpick.
212.  If I did order it, then no more than $1.00 and not through the
mail or with friends.

Good Luck,
Paul
