SaleHoo or Doba Reply

Does any recommend any of these?
Why or why not.Smile

I'm trying to start an on-line store, (and a retail location in the future) for bedding and bath products, have found a few products I can start with, but need more stuff.

I need all kinds of help, from getting a web site, etc.

You will end up paying too much through those sites. Everyone can buy through them.

Check out the membership site in my signature.

I can also supply you with an online store for under $ 5 a month.

Hi,
We do not know about others, but we at www.elmsgiftswholesale.com are true wholesalers. We have no minimum order, no sign up fees, and we do not charge extra for Drop Shipping. We started years ago and we know how hard it was and still is. Good Luck! Brandy

snoopy, this one looks like a "middleman" site. They don't actually hold any inventory, they have it dropshipped themselves.

Plus, no address is shown, I'd have to recommend never buying from a site that does not show their complete contact information. No product guarantees, return policy, etc. I sure couldn't recommend this one.

Thanks Pete, I think your right by the look of their prices.

I maybe new, but I was once told to do your homework and research what you are looking for.

In my opinion, SaleHoo is better.
As a asian, I can frequently meet SaleHoo.
In my opinion, dropship is also a good way to earn money online.
Choosing a good supplier---Half success.

Hi Snoopy.
I can say Salehoo and Doba both have their own plus and minus.

SaleHoo is another new player in this wholesale directory thingy, and it's getting bigger nowadays. Salehoo is serious about doing it because I know it has BBBOnline verified logo.
However, most of the Salehoo wholesalers are either "dead" as in dead links or China suppliers.
I am not saying China wholesalers are not good to work with, they do have supremely competitive price which you can profit marginally. But dealing with Chinese people is proven tad a little bit of a chore. But don't let this hold you back, Chinese people ain't that bad. Just do a little bit of research and you can find your good Chinese Suppliers :)

Doba is an established one, I'd known Doba long before I knew SaleHoo. Doba has a very easy to use interface and you can see everything on one screen which is nice. However, personally I think the number of suppliers and items from Doba is kind of limited. You may end up getting nothing to sell because you can barely find the alternatives of the products you want to sell.

Thirdly, this might be new to you, You may or may have not heard about it. There's this the largest wholesaler directory on the Internet called Worldwide Brands. featured on several magazines eg. Entrepreneur, Inc. magazine and so on. This site works like Salehoo except, this website is run by a team of Researchers and top notch sellers, even the owner himself was hand-picked by eBay radio. Everything from Worldwide Brands is top-notch and unbeatable they even offer the members Money back guarantee if you are not satisfied. whereas Salehoo only gives you 8 weeks Money Back Guarantee policy.

Tons and tons of features you cannot get from both aforementioned sites.
However, Worldwide Brands charge the users premium price which may turn off customers. As the members of all three sites I mentioned there, I have to say I am more comfortable using Worldwide Brands. Because Worldwide Brands alone is enough for me (Worldwide Brands even promise you that their website is the ONLY source you need), it has all the products I want and the features I can use to boost my sales.

Let's not believe everything I say here, Snoopy you may want to check it out and consider too because this following site can explain better than I do.

I've never tried out Salehoo but I definitely question whether Doba's prices are true wholesale. A lot of their products are actually refurbished which brings down the value.

Looking for REAL wholesale sources?

Finding sources on your own, or from sites without the commercial interests is always your best bet.

A good example is the membership site I promote. There is a small fee to join, but the sources do not pay to be listed. I have had over 500 folks join this site through me, and it is a great resource when looking for wholesalers and dropshippers.
