There’s pros and cons with every group. I think MOD has just grown too fast and couldn’t keep up. I sold to them last year but quit this year when a lot of issues were being discussed in private groups. I do hope they turn things around.

Amazon tracking shows Package may be lost, no updates on the tracking in over a week. So I've reached out to Amazon and they tell me to talk to the fright forwarder (aka buyer group) with Screenshots and ask them to refund. I have never seen this before in the years of using BG. Anyone have any recommendations on what to do?

The new and improved Amazon. Not. All you can do is try again, do a chargeback and possibly get your Amazon account closed, or eat the loss.

Is this common with BG. I am new and wanted to do this as a part of MS.

I'd say it does not happen a lot, but is also not rare. It really depends on the item. I've found it happens more often with Amazon branded products (Nest, Ring, Echo). I probably run low seven figures annually and would say it happens 5% of the time.

Anyone got scanned at TDB which is BuyingGroup now? My packages delivered on May 1st and still not being scanned so far.

Has anyone ever heard of uearnpoints.com?
I have bought for swiftbuyinggroup.com before and i see they now merged with uearn.

Anybody doing FoxHound? A friend told me about them. It's a bit like a normal buying group, but they pay $20-$40 per order placed, which is way beyond the other buying groups I've seen.

Unlike buying groups, they don't actually want the products, they just want images of the product and its serial number for research purposes to counter counterfeiting. I end up with the product, which I always return for a full refund. This of course means I don't end up with any net spend, but it's still a great deal on its own.

You should keep the volume low so you aren't flagged as a "serial returner" by the merchant. They could ban you from future returns. If the merchant subscribes to The Retail Equation, other merchants could blackball you, too. That said, I'm still going to try it.

I'm new to BuyingGroup and mine were delivered a few days ago but nothing has been scanned either. Did they ended up getting scanned and if so when? Thanks!

Some places will shut you down for frequent returns.

Yea, that's the main limiting factor. I just do ~2 orders for Foxhound per month. I buy a lot of other stuff on Amazon and don't return much, so I think this keeps my return rate well below the threshold at which Amazon takes any kind of action. But of course theres no way for me to know that threshold until I've exceeded it.

Buyers for Points experience?
 

Anyone have experience with these guys? I did a test purchase of about $150 and requested payment 3 weeks ago. When I followed up, they said:

We've been experiencing delays. Your check may take a few more weeks.

Which site are you talking about?

Yeah, I've done ~$90k worth of sales with them. In my experience, they're definitely the slowest group to payout with a lag of ~4 weeks from date of request -- with the latest being the longest at ~6 weeks, but they've always paid out, and normally at that consistent rate of 4 weeks.
