Different Prices of Creatine

[Blaz Kavlic]

I've been using the same brand of creatine for a while which retails for $29.95. There is a wide range of different creatine brands where I buy from and some cost up to $79.95 for the same size as what I get.

Is all creatine basically the same? What would be the cause of such price fluctuations between brands? Is it a "you get what you pay for" type product?

Stick with a solid brand micronized creatine monohydrate...its effective and very affordable.

This may be a bit off the exact topic but a rule I tend to follow in most cases, if the packaging looks like it cost more than the product to design and make i stay away..

I want a supp co that puts the money into the product, not fancy labels and advertising.

In my opinion, you end up paying a lot for a name.
Although I have used many "big name" brands that I have been happy with I can usually find cheaper, just as good if not better alternatives.
