Background of which BG I have used the most, for context: BFMR>MOD>BG
BFMR: The fastest and most consistent payment out of ALL groups. Usually, the scan is done on the same day or the latest by the next day. They offer lots of deals with no limits, including a mix of at-cost/below-cost deals. However, they also have the highest amount of theft among the groups. It's quite an issue with warehouse workers in NH stealing many items. If you check Discord, you'll hear about numerous reports. I've had packages show up with just the box and no Apple items inside. I no longer purchase from BFMR because it's hard to break with the theft unless you're sending $70k+ worth of items per month. If you consistently send to them, expect stolen packages and factor that into your profit/loss calculations.
TDB: In the last few months, they have been pretty fast with payments, usually within 1-3 business days at most. Recently, they have been doing same-day scans or the next day at the latest. However, in the past during peak times, they have taken up to 1-2 weeks. They offer a mix of at cost/below cost deals. There isn't much theft here, and they are willing to reimburse if a package is signed for but not scanned. Deals are more limited and fill up quickly if not committed to promptly. Have been buying a lot for them recently.
MOD: They have a slightly higher commission than other groups. I haven't bought much from them recently due to many user reports of stolen/missing items. Last year, I did around 150k with them and had no issues, but who knows... Apparently, the issue has been fixed, but I can't comment on it since I haven't purchased from them recently. Payout takes 7-10 days, and scans are usually done on the same/next day.
Your experience with the above groups, mirrors mine.
