Any body used Epic Goodies.

Thier website looks quite professional but the address is a private house when you look on Google Maps.

Thanks
Liam

Hi profits,

I haven't personally used epicgoodies.com, but found these not so good reviews online

Thanks Irene. I will stear clear of them. I wish I knew what I want to sell. I seam to have a different idea every day.
I am going to have a look at gemwholesale and gifttreewholsale I picked up from the links you sent to try and get some ideas.
If you have any sugestions on other dropshippers I would be greatful. I'm in the UK so would prefer UK dropshippers but am open to sugestions. I can live with a small fee for joining if they are reputable. I joined "The Select" once. That was an expensive lesson. They advertise that they have tools and tutorials to help you sell but neglect to tell you they charge more for them until you have already paid the joining fee and signed to pay the monthly fee for 12 months just to sell thier items which are often cheaper on ebay
Thanks again
Liam

Hi Liam,

Yes, you may encounter drop ship suppliers charging small account set-up fees.

While by no means ideal, a small account set-up fee is fairly common practice among drop shippers. In most cases we can understand the charge because it costs the drop shipper time and money to process a new account.

That said, not all drop shippers in SaleHoo charge a fee. And even if an account set-up fee is charged, you can often get around it by purchasing through the wholesale area of the site rather than the drop shipping area.

I'm sorry to hear about your experience with The Select. Here are UK based drop ship suppliers from our directory. I have also listed the drop shipping fees as indicated in their sites.

NO upfront fees, NO minimum purchase and NO long-term commitment.

There is NO set up fee, but we request you to pre-register so that we can identify those who are legitimate internet traders.


Hope this helps. :)

I am confused, I just contacted Epic Goodies based on Salehoo 4 star rating. Now you tell me they aren't reliable?

How can I rely on your rating system?

Hi Eric,

Sorry for the confusion, but if you check the dates of Irene's post and the review added by our resident eBay Powerseller Reviewer they were made approximately a year apart with Irene's post made earlier and Lance's review more recent. We highly consider and trust the review added by Lance, plus we have not received any complaints from any of our members concerning this supplier.

Hope this clarifies the issue at hand. All the best!
