SELLERS BEWARE OF FRUAD DROPSHIPPER!

Oh yes i got hooked! After all these years buying and selling i fell for it like a dummy!
This dropshipper started up about 4 months ago and there prices aren't way cheaper then others, but a few dollars lower and cheaper on shipping. So i figured now days every dollar helps!
When i signed up with this dropshipper i even called them and talked to a so called owner of the company and everything seem to be ok. So i ordered a item and paid threw there processer Allied Wallet by c-card. It stated that the card will not be charged till item ready to ship! So i waited and waited about a week and my account status was the same (processing) I tried calling them and left messages and tried emailing them and after a few days more my account status changed to awaiting shipment! I waited for another 3 days and emailed them again, the next day my account had a track # on it, so i gave it 2 days to get on ups system and nothing, waited another 2 days and still not on ups system so i wrote them and told them to cancel the order and i also contacted Allied Wallet and told them not to charge the card! So on this deal i didn't loose any money!
About 2 months after i checked there sight and i see it is still up and running and maybey the time before i ordered they had some problems just starting out,So Like a damm dummy i figured everyone should get a second chance, so i ordered a $22.00 item from them on the 10th of this month and now they didn't have Allied Wallet to pay by but they do have Revolotion Money Exchange so i transfered money from my bank to our Revolotion Money Exchange Account and paid them! I'm still waiting! There 4 phone lines they have are all full of messages and woun't except anymore! No response to the emails or messages i've sent!
Today i contacted Revolotion Money Exchange to see if they can do something about this and they said they are just a money exchange and there is nothing they can do to help get the money back!
I know alot of you are saying WHAT A DUMB A__ to go back a secound time, You all might be right, but we have allways believed in giving secound chances. And now for doing that we are out of $22.00, a pissed customer!
So watch out folks! This dropshipper name starts with (total) and there out of PA. BE CAREFULL

If you would like you may (in THIS case) give the name of the company, MrJ..so that others do not
get 'burned'. SO sorry this occurred~! :(

Thanks Lana!

I think if any sellers want the name they can message me, otherwise some buyer looking to buy for themselfs might try to buy from there and get taken!
And i know most of the sellers here

Thanks

Thank you John,

I apprecaite the heads up, truly. I haven't been in sales as long as you, but have worked as a bookkeeper for small companies for many years. I would have given them a second chance also.

BTW, you are not a "Dumb A**", you are a trusting business person. Don't ever loose that quality. Just call it your $22 lesson, write it off and move on. :) Remember, it could have been more costly. You could have lost a customer.

VERY true MrJ and Roz..you are so correct..Customers is what we prize
most..Law, I was afraid when I first started reading that maybe you and Ms M
might have invested hundreds or more. Did you contact the BBB in that place's
city/state?
Thank you for keeping us ALL on our toes MrJ and Rozzie also.

Mr.J, I don't know you like the others do, but I have nothing but respect for a man that can put away his pride long enough to warn his friends of troubled waters. I don't use dropshippers either, but my husband and I both sell, and he would say it was a cheap lesson. His stuff is differant and much more expencive then mine is, and he has been taken a few times to. Don't be so hard on yourself. It happens. From every chat I have read where you have be a participant, you seem like a very fun loving and likeable fellow. I look forward to the time when I to can call you friend.

Mr. J - We do a lot of kidding around here. You are the master 'zinger'. But this is no joke and you did a kind deed for everyone by posting your experience. I think it was a great public service announcement. As a drop shipper yourself, it is a good idea to police the industry so that drop shippers don't get a bad reputation. Thanks for sharing. No need to feel dumb about saying what you did. At the very least, you were able to blow off steam. But best of all, you may have saved someone else from losing a large amount of money. Bless you!

Thank alot for all the kind words everyone! Means alot!
I have been real lucky with dropshippers threw the years and we do alot of iut besides dropship ourselfs too! and when i find a new one i check them out by calling them ect! That's what i did here! Guy sound great! I even checked the state business regester for there name and they are listed there!
So it proves right here a Old Dog can get bit!
Not to cut down Revolution as i know many of you use it, but there is no protection with Revolotion at all for a buyer which will hurt everyone in the long run! Sure it's nice for a seller collecting the money, but it proves right here what that seller can do!

Thanks Guys

THANK YOU FOR LETTING US KNOW ABOUT THIS SCAM.
I DO DROP SHIP. BUT I CHECK THEM OUT BEFORE I DO ANY
BUSINESS. I CHECK WITH CREDIT BUREAUS, TOWN CITY
HALLS AND THE STATES BB OFFICE. I DECIDED TO TRY TO NEVER
GET TAKEN. I WAS ALWAYS AFRAID TO LOOSE ALOT OF MONEY
I REALLY DO NOT HAVE. ANYONE WHO DOES ANY BUSINESS
OUTSIDE OF THEIR OWN TOWN SHOULD ALWAYS CHECK WITH
THE BETTER BUSINESS OFFICE. THEY CAN GIVE YOU A HEADS UP.
I HOPE EVERYTHING WORKS OUT FOR YOU. YOU SHOULD REPORT
THEM TO THE BB OFFICE IN THEIR TOWN. GOOD LUCK TO YOU.

Also i contacted all there payment prossesers now they have and had in the past! I seen a couple of days ago they have another new one and it is Authorize net! I contacted them too!
They screwed the wrong person when they screwed me! LOL!!
