Hi,

I haven't used them, but I find this website very helpful.

Link hidden: Login to view

Do a search on their site for Megagoods

People post if they are having a problem with a certain company and what was done to them.

I found this site because I was ripped off from a company called
Swapselltrade.com

STAY AWAY!

Put the company's name in the search field and it will display it for you

I found a site on ripoffreport.com that is listed on Salehoo. Simplx is suppose to get you info on dropshippers but according to ripoffreport.com they are not legit. Why is this company allowed to advertise on Salehoo if they have such bad reviews?

Simplex called me..Gave me some story like a real sales pitch...How I was going to be a rep with Kmart..How Kmart would drop ship their products for me. Ready for the best part...To join...I would have to send them $3500.00. I was like 3500.00????? He went on and on about how 3500.00 was nothing compared to the ideal Kmart would be drop shipping directly to my customers...I told him..Hmm we have one problem....My online store doesnt sell stuff that is sold in Kmart...I dont think a Kmart bag would fit in with a Fendi or Prada bag..and at that point I hung up...So I really didn't get the whole story about this company..but 10 mins hearing about Kmart and 3500.00 was enough for me to say....Good bye:)

I then did my homework on this company and I would like to share it...

it's a supply chain Mangerment Company..You are not getting a wholesale list....you're joining a company and becoming what they call a Rep... .I did some rearch on Simplx.......after I got the phone call from them asking me to send 3500.00 and going on and on about how Kmart would drop ship to my clients..I didn't understand it and thought what you did until I did my home... There are a lot of companies like Simplx out there...

It's a little more detail then the regular drop ship companies.....Simplx and these other companies that I have done research on lately deal with Department stores like Kmart..QVC..Sears...Circuit City...Costco...Targets....Kohl's.....They set you up so you can view LIVE Inventory for these stores and end the out of stock problem with most drop shipping companies..and provide Live customer service for your customers...hence why the fees to join are so high..... I did my homework..now i understand how they work......It's not a scam..until you learn what it's about...

alfredob-
If you are interested in dropshipping I would not recommend megagoods, especially for ebay transactions. The prices are so close that it would be very difficult to make a profit. I submitted an application to petra and I will let you know how it goes. What type of products are you selling??
