Consumer ripped off

consumers are lied to prior to purchase of the program all the information points to it being an all in one deal everything you need all ready to go once you purchase the program just point and click. BUT THAT IS NOT THE CASE! they do nothing for you but keep you confused and want more money. they are nothing but a middle man. who do nothing but give you a list of supplier that you can get for free anyway. then you end up having to pay amazon even when you buy the amazon dropshipping service DO NOT PURCHASSE buyer beware!! i warn anyone

I read everything and was shocked at the information. First stated you sign up for free and don't have to pay unless your item sells.

They left out the part where you have to pick a plan, the cheapest $24.99 a month in order to sell + your EBay fees. No thank you!

*** Artists. Mike Fine and Wholesale2b.com

My Amazon store has been threatened with being shut down because of them and Casey Distributing which is a legitimate distributor claims that wholesale2b.com is a shady operation and that they do not do business with them directly. Trying to get a refund for the Amazon annual store subscription maybe impossible since their terms do not allow for refunds. I have had sales of their products for both Amazon and Ebay with the majority of items being canceled because they were out of stock, so their inventory feeds are not accurate. Some feeds are accurate and some orders have been fulfilled. They claim to have access to the lowest wholesale prices but it is not true.

As soon as i PAID from my banking and waited on shipment details " Mr Haseeb we need additional 30 $ to be paid first for shipping charges, these were asked by supplier and we can't so anything to ship your order till you pay . Also they are shy to give contact info.I LOSS MONEY IN THAT PRODUCT. Not going to use them again at all ..They are croooooooooooooooooks

Rippoff report on wholesal2b

I purchased one of their website plans. It was a nightmare dealing with this company. I worked and worked and worked trying to make this site profitable. On their ad they state they will give you your choice of THREE VENDORS from their numerous suppliers and they will pre-stock your store with these products.. ITS A COMPLETE FARCE.. THey stock your store with VERY FEW of the thousands of products from the vendors. I chose three vendors and together those three vendors had between 22-23 thousand products and most of them I cant even find. They have your store set up with categories such as "8 pc bedding" or "tvs" . . When you click those tabs there will be only a handful of products in each category. You have to search the products out in the search engine by typing VERY SPECIFIC THINGS such as 8pc. You can't type in 8pc bedding or 8pc bed sets or 8 pc bed sets or bed sets or anything like that you have to type in 8pc HOW DOES THE CUSTOMER know that? They don't.. They do NOT stock your store with these products.. I found the same thing in nearly every category. The suppliers I was supposed to have had dozens and dozens of TV products listed but when you click the "TV" link in my store you find like 2 or 3 tvs and a handful of adapters and antennas.. ITS A FRAUD.. I had to file with my credit card company.. I Stated ALL the issues directly to the company .. THEY EVEN BLAMED THE SUPPLIERS for the issues stating they didn't show up in the search because the vendors didn't have them listed propertly.. Who's fault is that? ITS NOT MINE.. I didn't get what I paid for.. They ADMITTED IT then after two weeks of working day and night trying to make it work they told me I could go in and edit the products one by one and "FIX IT" where it would show up/? Some of these suppliers have TENS OF THOUSANDS of products.. It would be impossible. It is a MESS.. You don't get a READY TO USE store.. Its a fraud. They won't give you your money either. They will make every excuse in the world . Blame the vendors and then try to keep your money. I'm filing a complaint with the BBB and the State Attorney GEneral . This is another one of those SCAMMERS.. They know they have your money and think you can't do anything about it and they have no doubt beat a lot of people like me out of money.. Here is a VERY LONG conversation below that I had with this company where they OPENLY BLAME THE VENDORS / acknowledge the problem and STILL keep my money.. I"ve already looked online. The complaints are starting to flow in. These online line company / wholesalers / dropshippers are nothing but frauds. The products are priced WAY to high to make any money. The shipping cost is VERY expensive. Many of the products that they supposedly are selling you at "wholesale" when you google them actually cost more than you can buy them for all over the web.. I spent dozens of hours looking them up one by one and nearly everything I found listed with these companies, including the bedding, is ALREADY BEING SOLD ALL OVER THE NET by the VERY VENDORS supplying to you and selling to you at the same cost or more that they are selling for online.. ITS NOT WHOLESALE .. It may be drop shipping but the average person wont EVER make any money at it because there are too many site issues, cost. fees, over priced shipping, over priced "whole sale" , over priced site cost , lack of products that you are supposed to have etc etc. Its ANOTHER scam .. I wouldn't recommend anyone try to use it unless you have a LOT, LOT, LOT of time on your hands to reprice. pick through, figure out how to navigate this site. Their store set up is probably THE HARDEST of any I've ever used to try to work with and I've used several. I cant copy the emails to this site for some reason but I have them if you want to read them. I am also going to file my own compaint and put the emails in using another means. REMEMBER THIS. These sites aren't there to make you money.. They are there to make THEM a LOT of money off thousands of us who don't get what we pay for. They count of the fact that they make money when you prepay.. READ THEIR TERMS BEFORE YOU SIGN UP. You won't get your money back when you realize that its a big mess that you will have a VERY hard time making money out of. They've made sure with all their "DISCLAMIER PROVISIONS" that they are protected and you won't get your money back even when you prove they haven't provided you with what they promise. I filed with my credit card company and had to prove it to get my money back by their own emails where they blame the vendors for THEIR LACK OF STOCKING MY STORE as they promise.. They make a LOT of money off of unwary people and vendors. I copied the store listings / sites / categories / emails to prove what I'm saying is ABSOLUTELY TRUE. You won't get 22 thousand products that ANYBODY CAN FIND for the most part. Your customers can't find them when you can't find them yourself. Anyway.. Be REAL WARY of ANY of these type companies. I've tried several and its not easy to make money out of them . You cant just buy a store and be in business as they make it sound. You have to have customers. You have to have PRODUCT / you have to have suppliers that sell at wholesale or you cant compete . .You have to have shipping cost that are competitive and you have NONE of that with most of these vendors. I would NOT do it again for anything in the world. I will never try another one of them and if you take the time to look all over the net and read , google these companies.. Spend a few hours looking up the complaints on ALL of your web browers , you are going to find that its not worth it and there's a LOT of people who are complaining because they got RIPPED OFF JUST LIKE ME and had to go through *** to even try to get it resolved...

Thank you very much for taking the time to comment like you did! I really appreciate that.

It means a lot to me. I do the same thing whenever it's necessary to let others know as well. As consumers we must help each other out.

However, there MUST be a way, I believe, to do this properly with a 'real' organization.

My brother just got a text two weeks ago from a friend in another state telling him she made $50,000 her first 3 months selling on eBay and Amazon dropshipping. She has never done anything like it before and has no experience. She provided a link to my brother who has yet to share it with me.

So keep looking and don't give up.

A few dollars here and there and sometimes getting ripped off in the process is part and parcel to learning the way that does work. It is part of the "investment" of making thousands!

It's the old "pareto's principle" or the 80/20 rule. Thousands of people are making hundreds of dollars a month on eBay and Amazon, but only hundreds are making Thousands of dollars a month. Those hundreds did what most people won't do...all the homework.

All the trial and error and lost dollars to make thousands later. Keep on Keeping on. That's what I plan on doing.

Thanks again for the article~! We all appreciate you bunches!

#1144269

And from all the hype these guys tell you that drop shipping is profitable,

I was going to try to position myself with an Amazon link from a website and use the margin for research, But I guessed wrong.

Glad you guys set me straight, Just have to do it another way.

#1129163

Totally agree.Not a chance to make money with their websites or Amazon push over because the price is a joke and not ment to make us money at all.They Do!!

Wholesale2b SCAM, stay away, misleading, false advertising, unwilling to assis

Stay away form this website. http://www.wholesale2b.com/ is nothing but a scam. You recevie a free memebership and the princing and items are ABC 123. Once you pay for your membership, Item fees are XYZ 489. The items that are seen on the free membership and not under the full membership system. Absolutly misleading. I noticed this 2 minuts after I paid for the membership. I email http://www.wholesale2b.com/ and they said once you pay you will not receive your money back. ( its their polcy.) And the shipping cost is abosolutly insane. $12 shipping on a item that cost $4. ZERO profit margin, absoute scam. This is their repy 06/09/15 09:05 PM admin Status: Replied Our business model is based on providing all new members access to all our products and prices before paying for a plan. This is done especially because our membership fees are not refundable once paid. We provide all the information up front to allow new members to review the products and prices before making a commitment. Items are not even close to what he stated in the email. Pricing and items are not the same in membership mode.

I just want to say to those of you who have experienced bad buisness with wholesale2b. I've read all reviews and I am on your side.

Everything I have read is accurate so far. I have my own complaints and I'm not a happy consumer.

#1092245

1st off / shipping at that rate is not across the board / it depends on where the distributor is located. So if view a distributor out of the USA / then yes it is high / don't use them.

Also the backend of Wholesale2b is better then most other drop shipping services out there / such as the ebay plan - will show you what the current pricing is on eBay as well as the links to the product profiles. Sure there is a lot of product that you will not be able to compete as others on eBay and Amazon may be selling the product direct vs though drop shipper. Start with a free account review for a couple of weeks / then buy one month and try it - after 30 days not for you then move on / don't ask for a refund as you should not be expected to be refunded.

If it works / then pay for a year / the ebay plan is then about 10 bucks a month.

#1048495

Are you serious wholesale2b works just fine for me it not a lottery ticket you have to put in some work. Some of you sound like it was a turn key to getting rich or something.

The suppliers there supply my dropshipping store and I make sells on Amazon.

If your dropshipping business not working for you its not wholesale2b. You might want to check your traffic generation model that goes for eBay and Amazon sellers too.
