I thought "Pack of 3" meant three items. Wrong. Only one item was sent. Not a good value for that price.

This item clearly states it is a "3 pack" however it is for only a single bottle of the product. The seller, Vitamin Shoppe takes no responsibility for the incorrect listing, citing Amazon as listing it incorrectly. The really amazing part is that Amazon and Vitamin Shoppe have been notified weeks ago yet they continue to allow the incorrect and misleading ad to remain. One can only conclude from this that it is intentional false advertising. BUYER BEWARE!

Stated that you would get a pack of 3. Only one came. I called up The Vitamin Shoppe. They said it was Amazon's fault.They said that they have never sold it as a 3 pack. I guess that I will have to dispute it with my credit card company.

This stuff is wonderful! I never smell when I apply it right, and I love that it's good for me. I used to be afraid to try this stuff because I was a definite antiperspirant fan, but I gave this a try. I was really surprised to see antiperspirant didn't actually do much for me, since I don't sweat any more wearing this stuff than I did when I was using antiperspirant. The only thing you need to know before you use this stuff is, the bottle says it must be applied to clean skin, and it means it. If you don't put it on as soon as you get out of the shower, before you do anything else, you will start to smell. It only works if you put it on as soon as you get out of the shower. But if you do that it's amazing.

AFTER CAREFULLY SHOPPING AROUND FOR THE BEST PRICE, I CHOSE TO BUY THIS BECAUSE IT ADVERTISED "PACK OF 3". WHAT ELSE WOULD 'PACK OF 3' MEAN??????? I RECEIVED ONE - FALSE ADVERTISING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been using the crystal roll on deodorant for 3 months now and I highly recommend it. I will say there was about a 3 week adjustment period where it didn't seem to work very well and I had to apply it several times a day. I wonder if that was because the aluminum deodorant that I had been using for years was still wearing off. This is my favorite deodorant because there is no smell and it isn't sticky. It goes on wet but dries quickly. The only time I have had to apply it twice in one day was when I went rock-climbing or when I was in Puerto Vallarta in July (very hot very humid) and a few other times when I was outside on hot days and sweating a lot. On those hot days, I applied the deodorant a second time and was fine the rest of the day. It might be my imagination but I think I feel healthier since I started using the crystal deodorant too.

I really like the Crystal products. About 5 years ago, for some reason, traditional deodorants started making me itch immensely. I tried hypoallergenic brands, sensitive skin brands, "natural" brands, etc, and everything made me itch so bad. Then I heard from my aunt about some "rock" a friend of hers used that worked great. So I finally purchased the Crystal "rock" (without any holder or anything). At first, I wasn't impressed , probably because I was so used to the strong smelling traditional deodorants - I could smell some stinkyness with the Crystal. So I started to go without using any type of deodorant, which really sucks. We are sure smelly creatures! I was so self conscious; I hated reaching around people because I could smell myself and I was worried they would smell me too. After going like this awhile, I couldn't even get the smell off in the shower, I could soak in the tub and scrub with soap, and when getting out of the shower my pits would still stink. So that's when I decided to try the Crystal "rock" again, and it definitely works! It is not flawless protection, as you can tell since I wasn't impressed going from traditional pit stick to this, but after going a year without wearing anything and stinking to high hell, this Crystal does work. I have now used all forms of Crystal. The Rock is great, it will last you way over a year, probably even 2 years. However one day I accidentally dropped it in the sink and it broke into a bunch of pieces; the biggest remaining piece had some sharp edges so I needed to buy a new one. So I bought The Rock in the plastic holder, and that is definitely nicer. However one time on a flight it must have gotten whacked because the deal that pushes the deodorant up stopped working. Then I tried the Roll On Crystal. I would say that is my favorite form, however you will go through it a lot faster. A bottle would last me maybe 2 months. I really liked it though, just a couple swipes and I was good to go. When I ran out of that I decided to buy the Spray bottle since it is a lot cheaper per ounce, thinking I would use it to refill my roll on bottle; however I could not get the roll on bottle open so I am forced to using it as a spray. Several reviewers say they can use just 2 sprays, however I am up to 12 sprays per pit just to get decent coverage so the bottle doesn't last long either. So overall, if you have skin sensitivities to traditional pit stick like me, or you worry about the chemicals in traditional deodorant, I would definitely recommend Crystal. If you want to save money, I would splurge for getting the Rock in the plastic holder because the rock will break if you drop it - you have to wet the rock before using it which makes it slippery, so the plastic holder is great to keep your fingers dry and prevent you from dropping it; if you don't mind the price and want the liquid, I would recommend the Roll On.

I contacted The Vitamin Shoppe today because my order came with only 1 deodorant instead of 3. The description states that you will get 3, but in fact you will not. Vitamin Shoppe did not even want to help me because they said that it was not their error. They told me to take it up with amazon since it was their mistake! I just know that I am NOT gonna get the short end of the stick and get ripped off!!!!

I like the roll on because it is less messy than the stick. It keeps your perspiration from smelling, and it chemical free. I highly recommend it for people who are concerned about aluminum and parabens. Plus, it's cheap and if you don't like it, you don't have to use it. Also, because it's chemical free, you can put it other places where you have odor from bacteria, like your feet. You can't do that with a regular deodorant/antiperspirant. I definitely recommend this product.

Be Warned, you will only receive one. It's fine, as far as deodorant goes, but it is not three.
