Did you order TurboFire from the actual beach body website?

I just got mine today off a different website and I was wondering if the one from the regular site has a lot of spelling errors in the books too? Mine claimed to be the "real" thing but with all these spelling errors, I am second guessing that statement....I have only read through The 5-day Inferno Plan book and on the first inside page It says "Pay colse attention to what you eat and drink...." There are a few others as well like on the 2nd to last page, which is red. Yourself is spelled yourseff.. I don't know why I pick stuff out like that when I am reading but it really bothers me. I am going to go through each dvd and make sure they are all working before I do anything. Anyway, just wanted to know if it is all TurboFire stuff or just stuff that claims to be legit from another website that really isn't legit. Thanks!!!
Oh and P.S. people that spell things wrong on forums or whatnot don't bug me much. It is just professional things. For example, during my interview for my current company, there was a TON of spelling errors on the job description. GRR lol

I got mine off eBay, and they're 100% legitimiate. eBay actually cancelled my sale because they were reported as potentially fradulent, but the seller had already sent them. Love TF, don't have room for it now in my current workout regime, but it's fabulous!0

I had the exact same thing happened to me -- I purchased on ebay too. Mine appears to be legitimate --- it does not have any of the spelling mistakes as mentioned above. I wonder if Beachbody is trying to control what is sold on ebay by reporting the sales as fradulent.0 -

That's what I think too. It cuts into their profit margin...quite a bit. Maybe if they didn't charge an arm and a leg for their products it would be different?0 -
Good to know! It is in the right box, and I got everything as pictured on beach body site. I am still baffled but as long as the dvds work, I can get over the spelling errors as I only paid $60! ;-) Thanks for the reponses ladies! And WOOT! I cant wait to start TF!0

Right! That is why I didn't order from the site. I figured I had to be able to get it elsewhere for cheaper!0 -
I am a TF addict!! I bought mine off the team beach body website also and noticed the spelling errors but the program is well worth over looking those. Good luck, add me if you like0

Added thanks! Hopefully we can support each other and I can stick to this program! Did you start with the 5 day inferno? I think that I am going to but I am going to use different foods just follow the 1200 calories for each of the days. I can't wait to get started!0 -
I just started my Turbo Fire on Monday. I didn't start with the inferno because I am really trying hard to meet my new calorie goals (but I am down to my last 10 pounds). I'm afraid to go back down to 1200. I'm currently set at 1460 on mfp (plus eating exercise calories) and my turbo fire stuff says that I should be around 1600 (I don't have to eat calories back). So I am viewing them as the same.
If I can't bust this plateau, maybe I'll try it. Let me know how it well it works!0 -
I, too, was rather shocked at the sheer number of spelling errors! But I think I have a legitimate program. I got mine off Amazon.com from a private seller. Maybe I got the editing rejects! So far, the DVDs seem to be legit. I'm definitely working hard!!0

I never really paid much attention to spelling errors. :-\ As long as your disks work, that's all that matters. I think the number one thing about buying the DVD's from a place other than Beachbody directly is that if you have problems with your disks not working, or skipping, etc., you wouldn't be able to get them replaced since you didn't buy them from the company.
Enjoy! You will definitely love it! :-)0 -
Thanks for posting this! I was getting a little freaked out! I am about to watch all of the DVDs to make sure that they are legitimate!0

I haven't recieved mine yet it should be here Monday, I am so excited to start! I've been do 30DS while waiting... Mine is coming directly from the site so we shall see.0
