Just wondering if people here find the name and shame section useful...its a poll so please feel free to vote

Also let us know if anything could be done to improve the forum

Thanks

What about a section where 100% legit dropshippers & wholesalers are listed?

You wouldn't get so many people asking for list's etc. because all know companies that are legitimate will be listed for all to see. Or, would that not be a good idea as it would be free advertising I suppose.

Just a thought

I agree with you but all that info can be found in the following ways:
1) under the for sale section..(we try and stop any unscrupulous sellers, so whatever is left is legit)
2) James already has a wholesale directory where the wholesalers and dropshippers are listed
3) i forgot i did have something to say...

OK, fair enough. I have nothing else suggest it's a very useful forum. Glad I found it!

How about changing the name to something like "Wholesaler / Dropshipper Reviews", Name & Shame sounds like everyone is a bad egg.

And every Wholesaler / Dropshipper company has ONE thread, which must be on topic.... So everything is easy to find and not reviews all over the place about the same thing.

hmm..the name Wholesaler/Dropshipper reviews sounds more professional...but on the name and shame section..we only list the scammers..lets see what James says about this though..after all, its his forum

If the name was to change imo it would go to: Wholesale / Dropshipper Beware List

That way we are not saying they are definitly scammers just making people aware of those listed inside...

That way we are not legally destroying somebodys business ect..

Well by using the word "Beware" you are already potentially damaging their business.

Lets have reviews, good or bad doesn't matter.... But they will be Honest and that, you can't be in trouble for.

I don't want just the "bad guys" listed ever, I want the so-called "Good Guys" listed too so I can make up my own mind.

The word for today is Impartial.

Regarding the reviews thing:

I think that is the idea with the "anyone used" forum. We try to limit to 1 thread per company, with any company that turn out to be a scammer etc, being moved to name and shame.

I do agree that the name and shamed should be renamed, to more of a beware sections as Anthony said.
