I'm not positive, but BFMR might be one of the ones that are fine with that. I know TDB is. PM requires prior permission and a receipt if you buy it locally.

Audit your shipment with EMB deals
 

EMB deals have been very tardy and inaccurate in their tracking of shipments from Amazon and even personal shipments via UPS or Fedex. I have instances where they have not scan an items for 3 months despite reporting the items as shipped. Then 3 months later, they reported the products were received but no longer accepted and requested a return shipping label or they will discard the items within 10 days.
Don’t expect a return support request from this group if you have an issue (like incorrect pricing, incorrect quantity, missing items, incorrect products, etc…). You take your chance every single time to you ship to EMB Deals. While they only get it wrong 3-5% of the time, these errors will wipe out any profit you expect to make from the previous 6-12 months. NOTE: most missing items are $500 where as the $20-$50 items are scanned correctly. Unlike other Buying Group, EMB deals do not admit losing packages or making mistakes. If they have not scan your package, it’s your problem. I was a great fan of EMB but the company have changed drastically in the last 9 months. Buyer beware and YMMV.

Thanks for sharing. I have had the same experience with USA Buying group. They don't even reply to my emails. I requested a payout which has been pending for more than 3 weeks now. Maybe I should take a trip to DE to teach these clowns a lesson ! Glad I never did business with EMB

Yeah, I've got a similar issue with EMB. They said they'd adjust iPad prices to $273 from a $285 payout for packages received beginning on 9/12/22. My package arrived 9/9/22, but they waited until 9/20 to scan it in and are refusing to adjust the price. Their rationale is based entirely on the fact that their communication's person on Telegram/WhatsApp isn't a native English speaker, and doesn't realize that "receive" and "scan in" aren't interchangeable terms. Specifically, they made a post stating that beginning 9/12/22, any ipads "received" would have lower payouts. And due to this post "being made" and me being "the only person who didn't understand," their broken English, they're refusing to correct the payout.

So yeah, like the other person said, they're not worth doing business worth anymore due to not having the awareness to admit a mistake.

Same thing happened to me - even though there appeared to be no problem with English written messaging...

The Deal Buyer won't provide labels for Hawaii or Alaska. I asked them and they said they would reimburse $15 towards the purchase of a label though.

Actually 2-4 weeks from request is standard payout time for USA. That's not out of the ordinary at all. I haven't had any problems with them in terms of missing items, but keep the payout timeframe in mind when choosing to send to them.

How much could one possibly put through over a year using the 5% Chase Amazon card? Seems like Amazon is the only thing that works right now.

How has EMB been since switching deliveries to their new warehouse at Tyler Way? I haven't sent them anything in 2 months due to an iPad delivery that went missing, but curious if there has been an improvement in recent weeks.

IMO, they have a higher rate of lost/missing packages than some of the other groups. They’ve also had a lot of BC deals lately that others are buying at BE.

TheDealBuyer vs MaxoutDeals
 

Hey everyone. Anyone here using thedealbuyer or maxoutdeals?

I've recently started using maxoutdeals because they have quicker payouts. Just wondering with the holidays coming up if anyone has any experience using these websites. I have to spend $15,000 over the next month on credit cards and I'm not sure if they will have enough deals?

Any idea which other buying groups have high dollar value items to cashout?

I bought a Dell laptop and had it shipped to BFMR to use my Amex Dell credits (ate the taxes and shipping costs).
BFMR says the package was damaged.

Would you get it replaced or just return it?
If I order a replacement, would you dare to have the replacement shipped directly to BFMR or will that cause issues (different state, risk of getting the account flagged, risk they will no longer accept the item etc.)?
I've emailed BFMR, but haven't heard back yet. What would you do?

Anyone else using maxoutdeals? I hadn't heard of them until this

I would return it.
