Hi Everyone,

I'm new to SaleHoo and reside in New Zealand.

I want to supply quality genuine products but all I seem to come across are deals that are just too good to be true. On closer inspection, I'm amazed at the number of people openly selling pirated copies of DVDs & games! As well as knock-offs such as 'iPods' etc. :shock: :roll:

Can anyone recommend some decent sites/suppliers where I don't have to worry about the integrity of the product?? I'm sick of wasting hours on end - even with SaleHoo, only to come across rubbish! :? :x

Unfortunately you are going to find these anywhere you go. There is a big market for knockoffs with flea market sellers so we will even list them as suppliers. You just need to do your research on the suppliers. And of course use common sense. If you think its a knockoff your pretty guaranteed it is.

As far as dvds, I dont put much into them anymore. So many fakes on places like ebay, And wal mart selling them so cheap they are not worth the trouble.

If you want guaranteed Authentic products then you really should go with retail liquidations. I sell nothing but authentic products. I never worry about them because I am buying them directly from a Retailer. Ebay has never been concerned with my auctions because they know I am a Authorized Broker for several retailers. Anyways the profit margins on Retail liquidations is so much higher then any other source.

So Jimmy....
What is the name of your liquidation business?
Also, I have been wondering about that. In the case of say Nike, if it is purchased throught a liquidator, is it OK to sell that on Ebay or Amazon. I am confused as to needing to be authorized. When do I need it? When do I not?
Thank you

Yes if you purchase through a company that buyer liquidations then you can trust that the products are legitimate. As they were purchased once before by the retailer. Buying from any chinese supplier you can guarantee they are fake.

My company is Called Products Plus Wholesale Distribution.
