Had been using bodybuilding warehouse for protein but fancied a change...
Ordered 5kg of matrix strawberry from ebay... It won't mix right and tastes disgusting... More like sick than any form of berry..
Its sat unopened for a week as i finished my old stuff first, today i had my first shake...
Clearly not happy, went to open a case and noticed their returns policy states return within 7 days un-touched but that isnt on my listing.
Where the fuck do i stand with this?

Surely you don't expect to be able to return an opened consumable product because you don't like the taste? Especially 5kg of it.

cheapo for a reason springs to mind? Matrix is dodgy stuff.
Just add some milk and make it better tasting or a blender.

Its low fat/carbs so really dont want to add milk, its the same price as iron science and BBW for 5kg tbh

Should have bought a smaller size first to check quality/taste first imo.
curiously, why did you buy from eBay and not myprotein for example ?

only way is to put it in a blender, and if you dont like the taste hold your breath and get it down your neck, man up.
If i can be bothered to use a blender some of mine are just like sand in milk but just get it down your neck and stop moaning

Are you shaking it in a proper flask?
Add skimmed milk.
Try universal real gains. Best tasting supplement ever.

Assume it has the plastic grid/mesh to help mix it?

Cost you £50, then it cost you £16  
Anyway, ive used the Matrix banana and thought it tasted good and mixed up fine too.
I don't think you are shaking it properly tbh. Are you mixing that shit up with a teaspoon??

It cost me £50 to buy which seller will refund when they receive my package, it cost me £16 to post it back... I lose the £16
Strangely enough im not a total retard and am more than capable of mixing protein... It tasted rank so maybe a bad batch?
Anywho, iron science delivery today, 5kg of toffee delight...
OMFG mixes up easy and smooth, its light to drink and tastes like melted toffee ice cream 
No freebies though the cunts
