How are you getting any of these sites to ship?
 

I haven’t messed with this stuff before. I’ve sent a very things to BFMR thru Amazon, using my extremely seasoned personal account about $1500 total. Everything has gone through fine. Dell computers order seems like it’s working. But I cannot get Best Buy, staples, or Walmart to actually go through. Do you just keep trying all those different addresses listed on their website? Or am I missing something? I don’t want to keep pushing my luck with my ancient Amazon account.

I would suggest to open new account and season it with BG activity to avoid burning your main account. I too can’t figure out way with BBY, WM and Target!

same email for me today, first of its kind. Purchasing just (1) apple AirPod, sending to BFMR

Also super new to this, also received this email. All my research said amazon was cool as long as you had a seasoned account (mines forever years old)

I'm interested in using BGs for MS going forward, and am specifically looking at BFMR, but am concerned about thefts, Amazon shutdowns, and possibly a card shutdown (I surprisingly got a Citi fraud lock after my first BG purchase today, which was quite modest).

I live in a state without sales tax so I'm considering having things shipped to my home so everything looks kosher, then shipping on from there to BFMR. I would need to buy higher priced items to make it worth covering the additional shipping costs, so that raises risk somewhat. Would I be able to deflect that risk by requiring signature on delivery or other carrier provided insurance? Would BFMR accept packages that way?

Thanks!

I lost 8k to BFRM. They simply claimed that the signature is forged.

Good luck to you.

Maxout Deals will offer a free shipping label if you purchase a certain amount. Depends on the deal.

Buying Group: Unverified Item?
 

Hello All..

Looking for some help with an issue I'm having with a recent order I sent to a buying group. I purchased three (2) Dell laptops using the buying groups link and double checked that the specs matched what they were looking for. The buying group confirmed that they received the package and they scanned in the three laptops but then marked them as "Unverified Item"

My question is for anyone that may have experience with buying groups is what exactly are they trying to tell me? Wrong item was ordered? I've asked several question via a support ticket but haven't received any clear or direct responses to my questions. Communication has been difficult. I've even offered to send a return shipping label but got a response completely unrelated to that request.

I know this is there busiest time of year but I'm left out in the cold here with $1300 on the line. Margins are thin in this game. I've been selling to three different groups for about nine months now and this is the first time I've had an issue.

Any insight of what unverified specifically means?

Thanks for your help!

Mike

You probably just need to send them proof of purchase so they can verify it's right. They usually don't get correct UPC until it's delivered. Did you open the ticket on discord or on their site? Discord usually better

Thanks for the response. I sent them copies of the Dell invoice and specs. Hoping that solves the issue but doesn't look like I'll get an answer until Monday based on their last comment of "sending the issue up to the next level" I responded to the original ticket on their site which they opened to notify me un the unverified item. I definitely need to get more involved on Discord to stay up to date on all the changes.

As suspected, it turned out to be a UPC issue. Several buyers had issues with several different models of Dell Laptops being delivered with new UPC codes. Took a few days but it all worked out in the end.

I was until now. Payments were slow but now some are over 6 weeks. I’m done with them once I get paid out.

Hi all, a friend of mine referred me to this forum and I wanted to share my experience with EMB (Earn Money Buying). For reference I have seven figures of purchases this year with various groups with minimal issues. In the past two weeks I've had five different shipments from Amazon that were delivered on different days, ordered on different accounts, and signed for which are "missing". Between 20+ iPads and apple watches I am now out almost $10,000. What's odd is that I have other shipments of much lesser value which were delivered at the same time, with the same signature, which were paid out. Coincidentally, the high value packages that contained multiple iPads and apple watches cannot be found. This is either an internal issue with EMB themselves who are stealing, knowing they can get away with it, or an issue with the Amazon drivers which considering it's a new driver every few days, doesn't make much sense. As we all know, EMB customer service is useless and won't help. Amazon won't help, understandably so as it shows delivered. The police department with jurisdiction over this area won't help either. They've said without actual evidence (ie. camera footage, which EMB will not provide) they cannot do anything. They've also stated that they've received so many complaints about this address/group in particular, that they won't even let you file a report. I'm trying to contact their parent company which I believe to be iBuy.com to alert them of what is going on. I know I'm not the only one who is also experiencing issues like this. My advice to everyone here would be to stop sending stuff to EMB as it's only a matter of time until it happens to you. BuyingGroup, Maxoutdeals, and BuyGetRewards have all been fantastic and I would recommend only using them. From my experience, BuyingGroup is the best and will actually cover you if something like this were to happen there.

BGs have really gone downhill. I’ve been doing them for 5 years and like you buying over 7 figures a year. IMO, it’s no longer worth it. Lots of theft in DE. MOD has the best prices but suck at returning items. They and BG have stipulations and hoops to jump through with them paying for missing items which is understandable. Other than some private groups, I’ve had less issues with BGR than any other group. BFMR has had multiple pallets go missing. I’ve also sold to EMB, MYS, PM, D&R , BigSky, BfP, and numerous others. The only thing you can do is a chargeback and be prepared for Amazon to shutdown accounts. And good luck spinning up new ones. The days of having hundreds of Amazon accounts are gone.

I know buying groups are still catching up from Black Friday, but has anyone been getting really long response times for support tickets from BFMR? I submitted a ticket on Monday evening, and I still haven't heard back. My last ticket during Black Friday was about 2-3 days, and I'm now pushing day 5.

Update: I heard back at 6 days. They must be swamped! I also wonder if they do a lot of work on the tickets during the weekend and focus on checking stuff in during the week. Just a thought.
