SaleHoo

[chausietao]

A day after I signed up for salehoo, I asked them for a refund. They emailed me and tried to convince me to stay. I said no I want my money back as soon as possible. 3 days ago, my refund is in process, and as of now, I still have not receive anything. According to their help section, there is a money back guarantee no questions ask. I shouldn't have joined this salehoo, i'm afraid they are not going to give me a refund. And I am not even earning money using salehoo. :(

You joined this site 3 days ago and expect to be making money.. This is what I mean by members thinking they can buy a membership to this site and point and click themselves to instant riches. I dont control the refunds given by salehoo. But you need to realize when you request a refund and they authorize it that it can take a few days. You are dealing with a company not located in the USA. It takes a few days for refunds to clear.

You know if it only took you one day to come to the conclusion that you cant make any money off of salehoo. I recommend you give up even trying to find a money making opportunity for yourself on the net.

You have literally proven yourself uncapable of learning or spending any time on research. If you ever do get a buisness running it will fail because you will not put forth any effort into making it succeed.

So go back to your 9-5 job and dont waste any more of your money on wholesale lists or database sites as none will have the point and click get rich quick schemes you are looking for.

Or you can do the right thing and learn to have patience. Learn how others are making money on the net and learn how to research the products you may be interested in selling. Learn which products to stay away from and in general learn how to run a business. You can learn that all here. But if you dont give yourself the chance to learn. You will never succeed.

I paid by PayPal not by credit card. I don't know why it's taking too long for salehoo to give me a refund.

[chausietao]

i did my research and I know what sells in the internet. Electronics. The wholesalers here a.k.a. middlemen, are selling items that are overpriced. I can't make a profit from them.

[chausietao]

even buying these electronics in bulk is still expensive

Refund?!!! hahaaa...whyyyyy? are you an idiot? You have not even been on salehoo for atleast a week. Oh, I know you just didn't think you were just going to sell like hotcakes and call it a day. I'm not going to lie it is sort of hard selling stuff on the net but that's what business is...COMPETITION!!! and you know what I have not sold one thing over the net yet but I have all the confidence in the world about selling things. I mean the internet is not the only way you can sell things. No doubt you can sit on your ass and wait for cash which is fun in anyone case. But you have to be a go getter. Get outside meet some people face to face and sell. I can't wait until I get my first bulk of goods I'm not only selling over the net but from my little jeep aswell. I don't care! I can no longer work for no one anymore. And if I fail I'm going to fail responsibily and learn from my actions. THANKS SALEHOO!!! FOR THE WHOLESALE LIST! ITS CRAZY OUT OF THIS WORLD PRICES AND I LOVE IT.

Oh yeah and for the record I have experience in the retail field and I'm getting use to making consumers buy stuff when I give it my approval. So really this is no leap of faith for me because I think I do the face to face selling thing good. And see your not even taking baby steps yet. You probably wanted to take those king kong steps in selling things. Like straight out the box selling big screen tv's. I think it's better if you start small and then grow. Because it's safer for your wallet. Plus if sell offline you don't have to pay any b.s. ebay fees or worry about people selling iPods for like .99 Cents. But I don't care if you read this or not...your probably already unregistered, your just one less seller in my hair.

Well, I've been doing this for about 10 years now and I probably bought just about every wholesale list and membership, get rich quick scheme that was available when the internet started getting popular. I tried to take away something from everything I ever purchased wether it be a good or bad lesson. And I can tell you for a fact that unless you have a very very large buying budget you should stay away from electronics..

I know that it's very tempting when you see sellers on ebay selling lots of electronics and think that they are making tons of money, but the simple hard truth is that most of the sellers that you see listing the electronics so cheaply are purchasing huge amounts at a time which keeps their "cost per item" low enough that they can make a small profit and squeeze out their competition. I only personally know one seller on ebay who actually sells xboxes, and playstations. Gene buys $250.000.00 at one time to get a price low enough to beat most of his competition and on top of that his profit per unit is only $15.00. He makes money by selling a large number of units.

But not many of us can afford to spend a quarter of a million dollars at one time..

If you want to sell on ebay, the very first thing you must know is that ebay is a "below wholesale market". If you are buying at wholesale prices, you are going to have a hard time making any money on ebay or any other auction venue..

This is where SaleHoo is invaluble. The members in the forum all share sources, hints, tips, and tricks to help each other succeed in the online market place. The forum is worth 10 times the price of all the memberships and systems that I've spent money on over the years..

Trust me, if you want to make money wether online or off, stick around, ask for help within the forum and the small fee that you spent for this site membership will be well spent... :wink:

[snipingkid]

Look, don't ask for a refund if you haven't checked out the site... I've been a member for one year... and I haven't checked a fifth of the stuff on here... I just don't have time, but I'm not going out asking for a refund. FYI, most sites DO NOT give you a refund, I was scammed 3 times ($50 per time) for their great 60 day warranty, to tell you the truth, it's nearly all bullshit, so make sure you know what you're buying before getting it.


My opinion, stop complaining, check out the site and I think you'll learn a if not make money. So stick around and stop bugging the staff.


And BTW, This forum is worth $50, and there is a whole lot more on this site. I haven't been on for a while but I suprised by the progress.

Think of it this way, your account will be worth $100 in a few years, so you can sell in then.

i did my research and I know what sells in the internet. Electronics. The wholesalers here a.k.a. middlemen, are selling items that are overpriced. I can't make a profit from them.

This is what I mean by uneducated. Members that come here thinking they have researched the market and instantly think oh yeah Electronics are the Big Stuff. Hahaha I love it.. You really have not researched anything.

"The wholesalers here a.k.a. middlemen" Those wholesalers sell for around the same price as the distributers. The liquidators dont go much more then a few dollars below the wholesalers.

Did you know that the top electronics sellers on ebay only make a few bucks on each item they sell? Ranging from 5 dollars to 40 dollars based on the impulsiveness of the bidder. And when they average thier losses with thier gains they average about 8 dollars profit on all items they sell. The only reason they make any money is because they sell 5 thousand items a month and more.

And not to mention the massive amount of 0 feedback scam bidders that never pay. That cost them alot of money relisting items. Ebay give them thier fvf but not the listing fees on NPB claims.

And thier not even millionares. Ebay has 11 known millionares in thier ranks since 2006. 3 of them sell Dvd movies and the rest are varied from designer mens clothing to jewelry to ipod accessories and swords. Theres only 1 company that is actually sells 2.2 million of dollars worth of electronics on ebay each year. And that is because they were the first ebay seller to sell electronics on ebay.

People trying to jump into the electronics have a 70% fail rate. People that try to jump into handbags have a 90% fail rate. People that try to jump into selling shoes have a 55% fail rate.

Ive been researching and studying for 12 years on whats best to make money on. Ive seen the trends come and go. And electronics has never been one of the top trends. Certain products yes, But you have to think. Everyone on the planet thinks that electronics is the most profitable venture on ebay. That means everyone trying to sell on ebay will be searching for electronics. Even liquidators will not drop thier prices on hot or high end electronics. They will set you up with close to wholesale but not high enough to make massive profits.

This is the same with DVD movies. Everyone can get them cheap so they flooded ebay with them. In 2003 the average selling prices on dvd's was about 12 dollars plus shipping per transaction. Now your average is around 99 Cents plus shipping, because 67,000 sellers are trying to sell them. Retailers like Wal-mart started selling them for $5.00 for older movies driving the prices on ebay even lower. The only sellers that are making money on them now are the ones that were established on ebay long ago and have a massive repeat buyer list.

So you can either stay here and learn something or you can just go buy 500 other lists over the next 6 years just so you can find the exact same info you just recieved today.

:D

Salehoo is an very good investment of your money and the wealth of information in return is excellent!

The thing that makes Salehoo outstanding is not the listings of wholesalers and liquidaters, etc. Yes, those are nice and I do check them, but the input in the forums is priceless!!

I am still learning myself about selling on the internet and I am taking things very slowly (I have a busy job during the day), and attempting to learn as much as I can as I progress forward!

Salehoo, all I can say is thank you and if others like "chausietao" cannot figure out the value of listening to others with experience, then good riddance anyway!!

This site is good and all but I will admit it does gain a lot of customers by misleading them into thinking they will get very cheap items. I remember they used to have one of those really long pages that always seem like scams and all over it were great electronics at low prices. Then you sign up and realize its not really what they were advertising.

[mana2006]

I have been a member for awhile now and always check into salehoo. I like the forums and it helps me find out about new information. The people in here are always searching for new products and sometimes bring up new ideas. When i First joined the wholesale list looked very appealing. At first glance I thought I made the wrong choice. I stayed awhile and started to learn more about salehoo. I actually do business with a few of the companies that were listed on the site. At first it was hard. I got frustrated real quick. A few months later I got a good nibble from one of the suppliers. Soon after the supplier hooked me up and helped boost my business. I have learned a lot here and continue to learn new things. I understand your thoughts I really do. A good business takes time and effort. Sometimes more time than I even want to give. When sales r up that means I work extra hours and vacation less. Though the two years of research and development took a lot of time and money it paid off. With interest in fact .... lol ... I wish u well on your journey. This business is tough but can b rewarding

I've heard similar complaints many times. Presumably you are referring to this page and its predecessor(s) which had a much longer product section:

** Link Removed: Only Available to Registered Members**

Well, inside the Salehoo member area those deals are substantiated here:

** Link Removed: Only Available to Registered Members**

They cleverly hide it right on the left side of the page between the links for new forum posts and the link to log out ... I mean, why would anyone ever be looking at that area of the page right?

The forum alone has helped loads. Well worth the money
