      Hi I have ordered a sample from a distributor with a gold badge with 10yrs, they have asked for my phone number so they can build a customer profile, is this safe to do so I’m worried as a phone number is usually information that is sold to scammers & telemarketers etc?

    Damn you're good. It's honestly humbling to witness how far you'll go to end this madness. *Adriannotch* The compassion you have for the victims, and the people you know the scammers could be, and how you want everyone to be free of this sickening behaviour. It hurts to watch these videos, knowing so many people are scammed daily, but it's a reminder of the good which can be done by honest people in the face of such insidious perfidy. Please keep it up.

    Wow that's a strong statement! What makes you think that negotiating the sample price is amateurish? From my own experience of dealing with different manufacturers over 10+ years, I think it's perfectly fine to do that and we did develop a good relationship with most of them. Some manufacturers open an higher price on their sample cost and actually expect a negotiation. This was coming out from the mouth of a sales rep after we became really close friend.

    • @shawn1869

    I bought many single items from Alibaba and had minor problems with some sellers. However, on a recent transaction, after paying for an item, the seller completely stopped responding after many requests for updates. Finally, I had no choice but to open a dispute for a refund. After submitting my evidence showing how the seller stopped responding with no updates ,nor shipping status, nor any explanation .... I was STILL taken on a ride for another 2 months before I finally received my refund.

    Was trying to buy a mini-excavator. Contrary to what you're saying the price you may pay at the end may be cheaper, they have the excavators listed at very unrealistically prices.
    When you contact them, they tell you that's not a real price. Then hit you with a huge price.

      @Regnald Aloyce this is Iam Authentic: trade assurance sided with me because I provided all the message transactions that's inside of the Alababa platform. 1st, I should add that if I had used whatsapp. I probably wouldn't have got anything. So, all communications need to be on their platform. Trade assurance said to me, "Yeah, you were screwed so return the product and get a full refund." It would have cost me over $2000 to return it. So, of course, at this point, I realized I was screwed. After 6 months of negotiations, I ended up only getting several thousand dollars of shit, the wrong product i couldn't use, and a small $400 credit. Secondly, never ever order anything that's not door to door delivery. I was stuck paying an additional $1200 to pick the order up at the port. Custom fees etc, oh also the 25% tarrif the US emposed on China "we pay that". Had the port allowed me to see the product, I wouldn't have taken possession of it. Watch your ass dealing with them. They are mostly liars that just want to call you Dear and shovel shit up your ass.
      That being said, I have had 4 or 5 other vendors ship door to door all fees included in their bids that everyone went well on. Cover your ass. Good luck

    I have a question if you may.
    If a product has low demand in china and is mainly produced under a US brand name in china, would it be likely that is a fake or no genuine?
    Especially in terms of tech.

      They will put whatever you want as a brand name because they can't be held accountable and they lie about everything. Be very very careful on their site.

    Hello!
    Thank you for your video! 🙌
    I have a question- when I start with alibaba and I would like to buy a product, do I need to put my customized logo at the beginning or just to order small amount of the product and see how it will sell first and then put my logo on the next ones? I plan to order 100 units first, and then if they sell fast, I will order more of them.
    Thank you! ❤️

    Hello man, why some suppliers transactions not showing on their company’s profile? It shows a dash (-)
    What does it mean?
