The Wholesale Forums

[bubbyjennings]

Im really starting to wonder if there is any LEGIT wholesalers and drop shippers??? I have searched high and low for some. OBVIOUSLY there are all the concept would not exist neither would this forum...
I am a newbie and just want some form of motivation and encouragement to let me know that there are decent, LEGIT wholesalers and dropshippers.
I have wasted a ridiculous amount of money on scams and need to know from companies that have made it, if they went throught the same thing, how they're going today and if being scammed several times has a good ending!!!
PLEASE MOTIVATE ME... LET ME KNOW THAT THIS BUSINESS IS FOR REAL...
All info and feedback is very much appreciated...
THANKS GUYS!!!

Awww Then your scam/disapointments are over now you have found us

There are great dropshippers and wholesalers on here (check my sig ) lol but there alot of others too just have a browse through the market place.

Alot of us have been scammed before landing here. Myself included and now since reading this site and posting and taking part in discussions i have launched a wholesale and dropshipping site and another retail site coming at the end of the month.

Something i never even dreamed of at the start of this year.

Stick around mate you will find what you're looking for

First of all welcome.

I'm very sorry to hear about your misfortunes, being a victim of scammers is not unusual, the reason this forum has a 'Bad Supplier' section is to make people like you aware of who isn't legit. Always do your research on a potential supplier, if any time you are unsure then the best thing to do is ask.

In answer to your question, theres millions of legit and successful wholesale companies out there. There's a few on here. You just need to learn from you naivety and start again. If you have the determination, stick at it and you will be fine. There's plenty of posts on here you should read up on to familiarise yourself with certain aspects of purchasing, before you do so.

You should be fine. Good luck.

EDIT - And Trace is definatly one of the good guys out there. You have just found one, to add to your list.

With regard to dropshippers, Hardware Heroes has made me a little bit over the past week, really depends what your wanting to sell and where - I suppose the advantage of dropshipping is that, as you appear to be based in Australia, you could potentially sell products to the UK market and have them dropshipped from the UK saving any postage cost etc.

mickster505 and emily...
THANKS A BUNCH GUYS...
The motivation and dream is slowly coming back... LOL

No probs Bubby And Mickster has given a very valid point too about dropshipping from the UK to the UK. Lots of people do this.

But anyway, have a GOOD read of this site while the rest of us probably sleep, as its what? lunch time in Australia now? lol for us its nearly 3am, so forgive us if we go quiet...

It's true, the dropshippers on here are good, they all need to be verified to be able to advertise here, I am using a dropshipper from here now, still early days so no massive success story yet but my supplier is always helpful and always delivers within a reasonable timescale. Of course I got scammed a couple of times before I found my supplier (and these forums), it's all part of the learning process unfortunately, but worth picking yourself up, brushing it off as experience and moving on. Like Emily said, research your companies as much as possible first, see what others have to say about them, if you are still unsure, ask on here if anyone else has dealt with them, etc.

All The Best!
