Duster, I double checked the address I used and it is the same one on the website. BTW, it is not readily available; it is in the FAQ section. Their website is not where I originally found their address. If it is available somewhere else on their site, I did not see where.
Now I admit that I am confused. When I pull the address up on Google maps, it shows what looks like a storage complex for companies, these buildings look like concrete stucco block. When I put the address in my Garmin, I went to a residential address. Somewhere along the line, something went wrong with the address. I do apologize for the confusion.
I will stand by that I feel that this is a smaller company. I stated that they had been in business for at least 5 years. They claim to have been in business since 2003, ( not far off). A large percentage of companies do not last more than 3 years. This being said, I do, and did, believe that this is probably a reputable company.
Now part of the reason of why I thought this was a home based company, is the comments that I found about the company, the responses given, where these comments were found, and the lack of information readily available. I also looked at the type of products they sold, and the quantities you can buy them in. This is also based on other information I was able to find. ( I am not sending people to where I found the comments, because I did not believe the comments to be reputable, and were several years old).
I do appreciate your concern for my time. I actually have family in Miami, which was part of the reason for going down to Miami. I also had about a dozen companies that I wanted to find out more information about. The main thing I was interested in doing was research. I wanted to see which companies that I wanted to buy from, and learn a little more about them. I did receive a call back explaining that they were closed when I made the call. It was also requested that if I wanted to show up to their warehouse, that I let them know in advance, as they did not normally have people stop by.
Now for me personally, I have to be extra careful. I cannot afford the possibility of working with someone that I know I can trust. This is because I have limited experience in this area, which I have stated in other threads. So if a company decided not to allow me go in the ware house, without advance notice, I probably would not do business with them.
In short, my main points stand:
-They are a company that is probably smaller (although probably not a home based business)
- They have been in business over 5 years
- While not registered with the BBB- they have no complaints and rate a grade.
-If you look hard enough, and are willing to buy in high enough volume, you can probably find someone closer to the source.
- All signs point to them being a reputable company with products priced where you can still make a profit.
I hope that clears things up, because I did not want to offend, or for it to seem like I had negative things to say about JMC Wholesale.
I also want to thank you for responding. I stopped writing anything about the companies I visited, because they did not get much of a response. This showed me that not enough people were taking interest in them for me to put forth the effort of what I had found.
I do not have the personality to get insulted, or feelings hurt if you prove me wrong. On the contrary, I learn more from people that I disagree.
