I need to know if they are reliable, if met, if I can work with them.

Any information is welcome.

Thank you very much for your help.

Hi and welcome to SaleHoo, ppellet :)

Globalgroupbuy.com is based in Hong Kong and has been online since March 2008. I tried searching for reviews and/or any feedback but was unable to find any - good or bad.

They do seem legit and relatively safe although we cannot vouch for them since we have not used them before.

If you do intend on purchasing from them I suggest getting to know them better, like exchange emails/phone calls and make sure you use safe payment methods at all times.

Hope this helps somehow.. All the best!

thank you very much for your help.

I will study the company best and show my results here when it does.

I'm new at this and want to work the best.

I apologize for my English, I speak Spanish.

Best regards to all and much success in your projects!

Hi ppelet,

Glad to have you with us! :)

There are several suppliers in our directory offering merchandise related with the ones by globalbuygroup.com. To use and search in the directory you just need to click on the Directory link you will see above. You will be led to a page with a blue Search box where you can type the product/keyword that you need suppliers for. To set options for supplier type, view dropshippers only for example, or by supplier location, among others, just below the green box for Search, you can just click on 'More Options'. Set the filters you need and click on Search. :) There is also a box that you can tick check to filter your search to those who can send internationally.

Let us know if you need help in doing this. :)

Thanks irene_salehoo

I took his advice and found other suppliers for the product I was looking for.

I have another query:
Searching the directory indicates that some providers do not ship internationally, but have the product I'm looking for, should I write to see if your condition has changed or SaleHoo directory is continually updated with this information? ...

Hi ppellet,

Although we update our directory on a daily basis, contacting the supplier directly would still be a good option. Many suppliers do not openly state that they ship internationally, but when asked many are more than willing to do so. After all it's still a sale for them :)

If you need help in locating suppliers, please let us know - We would be more than happy to do a search for you.

Hope this helps, all the best!

Thank you very much!

It's nice to know that I count on your help. I've started writing some dropshippers to know if they send orders internationally.

I would like help finding dropshippers for these products: electric shaver and / or electric razor. Can you help me with this please? ...

Thanks again, I bid you farewell.

Pixmania-pro.co.uk also has a number of electric shavers but they don't ship internationally. You might want to try contacting them too!

Hope this helps, please let us know how you get on :)

The Kole Link hidden: Login to view has some info you might want to bear in mind before recommending it:


Can I register if my business is not in the United States?

Because of the tax implications involved, currently, only businesses and individual participants that have an address in the United States may participate in the Kole Imports Dropship Program.

If you live outside of the United States and would like to discuss doing business, please contact us



Why do my customers have to buy wholesale packs? Can't they just buy one?

We are a wholesale operation, and our business model doesn't allow us to sell in smaller increments. Items are warehoused by pack size, so in order to ship quickly and keep ourselves and you profitable, we can't break our inner packs down into smaller quantities.


Kole is a great supplier, but not so sure about their dropship program ... packs only, US only, only about half of their total product lines available for dropship, etc.

Thanks for pointing that out, Frank :)

Mighty helpful to know the fine print. I guess I should scratch them off the list for ppellet.

Thanks again!

Well, bear in mind I was wrong about Waterbeds 'n' Stuff :)

I just coincidentally was just talking with Kole about their dropship program, so it caught my eye when you had them listed there. I'm not sure who they are targeting, really -- indie wholesalers, I guess. The prices aren't bad, but as typical of dropshipping and the dollar store business in general, the profit margins are razor-thin -- if you aren't doing huge volume I can't see how it could work, unless you're providing the Kole products as a loss leader/filler for your site.

Many thanks to both.

I'm starting with the dropshipping method and every detail is important to understand the whole.

Now, I am preparing some messages to send and waiting for others answers. I still have to complete my study of each dropshipper to decide with who I can work.

Some important things that I have saw until now are:

- The lack of dropshippers oriented to the spanish market. Some product like "Spanish playing cards" are to difficult to obtain and I have only saw "english playing cards".

- Another aspect that limit my action (and others outside USA) is the next situation: "only businesses and individual participants that have an address in the United States may participate in the [...:e8d48bcc] Imports Dropship Program."

But, there are a lot of other opportunities that I have to explore.

I think I have a hard work to do yet.

Greetings from Chile.

That's is a harsh reality many seller from outside the US have to deal with unless they plan to market their dropshipped products in the US rather than their local market.

I like your spirit and willingness to do all the hard work for your business and I wish you all the best!

Hello

This was the response from pixmania-pro:

"Please note that Pixmania-pro is present in 23 countries, however do not work with South America.

If you go to the home page of our website you can see which countries we work. "


This is the page: Link hidden: Login to view

Then: I can not work with them.

Though unfortunate, thanks for the update, ppellet.

Are there any other products you are interested in dropshipping other then electric shavers?

We would be happy to help you find suitable dropshippers...

Cheers!

Yes, I am looking for another kind of products and I have some troubles to find them. What I need are "wildlife spy cameras" (cameras for study birds and others animals).

Can you help me with it?...

Hi again ppellet,

Here are suppliers which may have what you are looking for -

The last 2 suppliers have more like the usual spy cameras, whereas the first two have cams for animal filming purposes.

I tried looking for something like this but couldn't find any suppliers, unfortunately - The "Magi-cam" uses mirrors as camouflage to spy on animals.

Hope this helps :)

Thank you richellemonfort

I will see these suppliers.

It is difficult to find them, I am working on this for several days.

Good picture :)

Hi ppellet,

I initially did a search outside SaleHoo, since I thought maybe there were no suppliers in the directory, that's how I found the 'Magi-Cam' which unfortunately doesn't seem to have any wholesale suppliers.

But if you type in 'spy cam' in the search tab (in SaleHoo) the first two supplier links I provided in my post was at the top of the list :)

Anyway, hope you find what you need! All the best.

richelle monfort

I see several interesting items, but in several dropshippers. If I put these items together in my online store, I can offer an interesting set of pieces for my customers.

What do you think about working with several dropshippers at the same time?...

Hi ppellet,

Yes, working with more than one dropshipper will help you provide your customers with a wider selection of products but you might also consider a few things like shipping, the likelihood of one customer ordering from 2 separate dropshippers is very likely :)

Please refer to the link for more info - Link hidden: Login to view

Hope this helps!

PS, you can call me Richelle :)
