  • Hey everyone, welcome to my channel, I'm Mey :)
    As you may know, I am obsessed with jigsaw puzzles, and am constantly looking to find my one true print on demand puzzle hero company.
    I have ordered from Zazzle & Society6, but despite their amazing quality- they do NOT integrate with Etsy or Shopify.
    I have also tested suppliers from China, some that were nice, others that NEVER arrived. And I have tried ordering from FinerWorks (soooo bad!!) and from Printify.
    I finally got my Gooten puzzles, but was kinda sad to find the BEST quality puzzle I have ever seen, in the worst package for clients.
    Would really love to know if that kind of packaging would also disappoint you, or would you be willing to sell these print on demand puzzles from Gooten ?

    packaging is incredibly important for branding. It preframes the product before they see it. Underwhelm will create more underwhelm, and they won't look forward to using it
    thank you for this!

      Packaging on the POD scene is def an issue. My favorite puzzle so far was from Society6, though you can only sell them on their platform, and not on your own shop.

      If you need to have the puzzles on your own shop maybe try Printful's? I can't test order them, only USA... I do love Zazzle puzzles a lot, great quality, and my puzzle shop is opening there.

    You are absolutely right!!! And you would feel “not so good” if you were to bypass your feelings and use this supplier. I think, even though you’ve been on a long search for a perfect supplier, the quality of this product proves you are close. Keep looking.
    When the small details are ignored it points to a bigger, though hidden, problem. Let Gooten go and know your perfect supplier is “right around the corner.

    • @MeyTribe
      @MeyTribe  2 роки тому

      I think that with every supplier you have the good items and the bad... No one that I witnessed having 100% good delivery on all their catalog. Maybe I should stop chasing puzzles and get back to wall art? LOL

    @MissMolly3377 2 роки тому +3

    Yeah, that is weird. I think I would send them this video, or email them, because that is strange. I wonder if the name would change on it, for each customer, like where your dad's name is. I would definitely send them this video. You do such a great job in these reviews. You are fair and honest (which I appreciate), and they need to know this. I am curious to see if the puzzle will look like the picture on the box? Let us know. They should be messing with your image, at all. Thanks Mey. ❤️🤗❤️ Hug from the USA.

    • @MeyTribe

      Not sure I wanna :( I mean, maybe I just don't think they will actually do something about it?
      I do believe it would change, as it's not the name connected to my identity... Maybe that name should have been mine? or of the business? We still haven't done the second one, but I will def check when we get home :)

    thank you for sharing Mey, the price is not reasonable. However if you liked so much of the quality try to contact them know your feelings. Maybe they will change and care about their customers. By the way you are a great artist, this painting is awesome. I love it. Thank you for the puzzle ideas.

    Thanks for sharing your review, may I ask how long the shipping took from the origin country to your friend? Also, do you recommend any print-on-demand (AOP) with good quality and faster international shipping other than Gooten?

    • @MeyTribe
      @MeyTribe  Рік тому +1

      It was shipped to my dad, got stuck at customs, as it's from a different country and he is in Israel. I don't know the exact time frame. I'm sorry :(
      I love Printful's all over printed items, I get them super fast being in Bulgaria as they have a fulfillment center in Latvia, on every product you can see what countries it can be fulfilled from.
      My latest order was for a blanket, joggers & a beanie. The joggers and the blanket will be shown on Today's video (about Halloween) - ordered on August 15th, and got them on August 24th (and I'm in a village in Bulgaria, not a big city, so it bounced from airport, to region, to me...)
      There were several reviews for their all over print items:
      The joggers: ua-cam.com/video/n64T485YsAQ/v-deo.html

      and the latest- shoes: ua-cam.com/video/sQrwt4WCkTo/v-deo.html
      Hope this gives you enough info. If you're interested in other all over print items from printful let me know- i make my next test order very soon :)

    That is such a shame to see a great product let down by something as simple as the package label. You are right to be so disappointed with that. So strange to see delivery details on the box when it could easily be a separate sticker for whatever postage bag they use.

    There is no profit in selling jigsaws, I can literally buy a 1000 piece one of Amazon for about £15 quid. With print on demand it costs about £20 to make them and then a £5 for shipping.

    • @MeyTribe
      @MeyTribe  3 місяці тому +1

      You can say this for any POD item. I can buy a tshirt in a shop here for 5$.
      People can buy a huge wall art print in Ikea for the cost of a small POD print.
      The "convincing" factor is what is on the puzzle, what is on that print, what is on that tshirt. Making things people can't easily find, creating customizable items, or building an audience that pays that extra amount- for the sheer joy of supporting the artist they love.
