Obvious solution is to not only return that one, but then go to a different brand of store, buy a bunch, then return them the next day. Repeat for each kind of store you can reach that sells them.
I dont want to enter a contract when consuming your product..

Make your own opening elsewhere on the package.

You’re still opening it.
But if you have your friend open it, then you are not opening and consuming the product.
Of course, with such draconian rules, one should not drink that stuff anyway.

Open it. Return it. Repeat.

“I went to the url but it was just a 404, honest. No terms, no conditions”

Telling us the product so we could avoid it would be useful.

Other people are saying it’s Vital Proteins, apparently.
Allero@lemmy.today 17 hours ago
Some Vital Proteins product, it seems.
DarkCloud@lemmy.world 19 hours ago
Some one should sue them for the maximum highest costs calculable for the travel time of having to return their products buying a new substitute brand, and going back home + legal fees.
Then that person should buy the product again to see if there’s still an agreement in place, and sue them again.
flandish@lemmy.world 20 hours ago
return it after opening and consuming. the text does not say if you do not agree do not open. nor does it say you can’t agree, open, then disagree.

Vital proteins take themselves a bit serious. I’d send it back. Terms and conditions my @$$.
Idiot behavior from self important companies should not be rewarded.

Lmfao protein additives (or whatever that is) now come with a EULA…? What a time to be alive 🫠

Is that even legal?
MotoAsh@lemmy.world 17 hours ago
Almost certainly not. Just like click-through terms (terms that are offered only by link with an Ok button) are not enforceable. It’s just there to dissuade those that assume it has any weight, which isclikely most people that are not lawyers or filthy rich who would consult a lawyer anyways if they got hurt.
It’s almost certainly on similar legal grounds to a cease and decist letter. You’re not being sued, you’re just being warned that they don’t like you via legalese.

I would have thought that that applied to the Uber wrongful death suit also, but at least one court decided that type of click-through terms were binding even though it was clearly a bunch of shit.
Although, it was overturned later because it's a bunch of shit. But it was at least a debate.

Depends: how poor are you?
JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 12 hours ago
No, but they can use it to drag out the court case until you run out of money.
ArsonButCute@lemmy.dbzer0.com 17 hours ago
It probably isn’t legally binding, but is enough to get most folks off their back.

You can disagree to the terms by pulling it open the other way around.

What is this ridiculous product?
Kraven_the_Hunter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 hours ago
An unregulated “nutritional” supplement. If it puts you on dialysis for the rest of your life - arbitration only and the best they can offer is a 25% discount on your next purchase. Limit 2.

Did... Did someone MAKE you buy that?
spankmonkey@lemmy.world 19 hours ago
It sure looks like this is displayed after peeling back the very top layer that is still slightly attached at the top right in the image.
So they most likely did not know this was a thing when they purchased it.

Psythik@lemmy.world 12 hours ago
Not really. They just hand you the powder in a pouch and say “that’ll be $16.42, please”.
gressen@lemmy.zip 19 hours ago
Has this been revealed after opening product? What a shit company. Are customers expected to read the T&C’s every time someone opens the packaging? FYI, the page mentioned links to 4 additional pages and one of them is a 404.

Open it from the bottom.

That’s how you KNOW they’re putting sawdust and filler in their products.
