Hi.

Im Mark from MGQuk, and ive just seen this thread.

How is our website Dodgy??

We are no scam, and the site has been running for almost 2 years, and we recently upgraded our site to a os commerce, so its earier for customers to use.

And our drop shipping prices are cheaper than the site prices.

We are also Ebay Power Sellers, with a platnium award, so we aint dodgy

never said the site was dodgy, over priced but if thats retail price then fair enough,

after researching the domain owner and finding scam information about him/you - then what sort of impression does that make?

can you give any example dropshipper prices? all uk stock or imports?

Also just a quick example: Nokia 6822 @ £182.99 that you sell on ebay, can dropshippers get this cheaper, or even sell at this price?

Im only just aware of this scam, its all news to us.

All stock is genuine Uk stock, with 12 months warranty, and is all factory unlocked. Which means its never been on a network before.

And, yes our prices for drop shippers are cheaper than ebay prices.

Where did that information come from ?

Regarding the site, to be fully legal with your ecommerce site you need to look at your privacy and T&C's as you are leaving yourself wide open regarding data protection act and information holding/exchange.

Also one thing that would drop me right away is the fact that there is NO security certificate present and as such customer details are very open, there is a google security search string that will allow your customer details to be found.. let alone a harvester program/hacker.

Also as you are using osCommerce and have not modified the original template you are also breaking thier T&C's by removing 'powered by osCommerce from the bottom'.

Also an indication of some of the dropshipping prices may entice people to join, ie. prices are x% less for dropshippers.

I am not ridiculing the site as you have taken the jump and actually generated a site which a lot of people do not do but seem intent on criticising others! I would however recommend at least covering the above points and also it may be worthwhile you looking at modifying the stock osC template so that it looks slightly different to the millions of others out there.

The comments are aimed at being more constructive...there are plenty of errors in my sites that can be 'criticised' so just trying to help. In fact I just modified the look of one of my osC sites and the conversion rate went up by 10%, so making the look unique made a difference.

Mike.

I guess it's from the site itself..

14796 requests since Wednesday 16 March, 2005

I don't know oscommerce, but I'm sure that when it was installed.

The domain's been around since 17-Feb-2004

Thanks, and your coments have been taken on board.

But we unfortunitly dont no how to personalise the site, it took us a while just to install the program.

And you trust these counters, even if this was true surely the alexa ranking would have been a lot better than it currently sits at? As it happens I do think that the inception date shown is correct, although it is very easy to manipulate this..

Visit the osC support sites and forums, everything that you need is in there. The forums are especially good.

Dont forget to get the SSL to cover your customers details, this has nothing to do with osC and is exceptionally easy to install. Would you give your details to a non secure site ?
