Seems like Matrix321 and imatrix are very similar. A quote from the imatrix FAQ page:
12. How many matrices can I join?
You can join as many matrices as you like, as well as joining the same matrix multiple times. It helps you receive your rewards faster.
So why would someone want the same kit multiple times? Sounds fishy to me!

I believe it's a way to increase sales. It's just like those ab commercials you might have saw if your in the US. They give you all this information and saying keeping it on longer will give you your abs faster! It's false advertising and it seems to work with a lot of companies. Very few get busted with it though.

Actually I think there was a post awhile back that made it obvious the sites wern't abotu the ebooks here is an easy way to tell.
1. Little or no info about ebook you are buying
2. Same ebook at different prices
3. People buying the same ebook again and again
4. Sites describing themselves as an investment or using similar terms.
5. Ebook is at an outrageous price
I'm sure there are others just can't think of them right now.

Sorry to take this a little off topic, but here is your big Ab Belt idea - ending in a lawsuit and a loss I might add.

Ab belts under fire
Bad news for those who were expecting to turn beer bellies into rock-hard abs without any effort - ab belts are coming under attack by US consumer watchdogs. Three US court cases were launched recently against distributors of "ab belts", which claim to exercise abdominal muscles through electrical impulses. In one case, United Fitness of America and Tristar Products agreed to stop promoting their "Fast Abs" belt as a weight loss and muscle-building tool and settled with the US government for more than $5 million in a misleading advertising lawsuit. The settlement is part of the Federal Trade Commission's "Project ABSurd", a crackdown launched in May against abdominal belt-sellers. A Nevada court awarded summary judgment to the federal agency against "AbTronic" sellers earlier this month and a suit against "AB Energizer" is still in court.

In the thread about matrix321's e-book fiasco, I already addressed imatrix, gotmatrix, etc. You can look at that thread. You'll see I quoted directly from their FAQ page.
