For pre-ops: Cheap Optifast on eBay



Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Just to help out any Aussie pre-ops who need to do pre-op Optifast, I ordered mine from an eBay trader, much cheaper than anywhere else.

There are a number of eBay traders selling various Optifast products. Suggest you research prices in your local area, and don't buy from eBay if the total costs (including postage) are higher than your local pharmacy. Trade safely - always research the trader's feedback ad turnover, and only buy & pay via eBay approved methods.

The deal I got was $162.50 ($150.95 plus $11.55 postage) for FOUR boxes of the milkshake (4 weeks supply). Purchased last Thursday, delivered this Monday.

Chemist Warehouse is currently selling Optifast shakes for $44.95 per box. They seem to be the cheapest retail supplier around. If there are no stores in your area, you can order online from them too, although I don't know what the postage costs would be. (Soup, bars and dessert from my local Chemist Warehouse store, as I wanted them all without delays, and couldn't be bothered trying to find all three from one eBay trader, and then negotiate discount postage.

Hope this helps to keep the pre-op costs down!

Cheers.

If your in or near mulgrage the direct outlet is only about 2km from the valley private hospital on police road - you can buy direct there usually cheaper than anywhere else if anybody in that area needs any.

I have some Optifast left over, that I want to get rid of. I know that some say to hold onto it, but I am NEVER having that stuff again if I can help it.

I have heaps of vanilla and choc shakes, chicken Soup, choc mousse desert. More than enough for a pre-op bandster. PM me if you are interested. I'll sell it at cost plus postage (or we could organise a delivery / pick up).

------------EDIT---------------

I have decided to list my Optifast on eBay. My eBay username is spacscrap.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
