Hi all,

In the famous http://www.warriorforum.com/building...ites-here.html thread, eforchina was the first mentioned in the list.

I tried to search the forum for any reviews or discussion of their service, but haven't found any other thread.

So I'd like to know of those who used or are still using them to drop-ship products: are they reliable in terms of shipping the orders? does an order take a lot of time to be delivered in the US, like more than 30 days?
How often did you have to deal with lost shipments?

Thank you.

    I am doing some comparison using Drop Kingz now and honestly most of the e for china catalog is on ebay being sold for a profit, but I was told yesterday its not a unique product catalog.

      Thank you Bogan for your feedback.

      However I'm more concerned with their shipping performance.

    I have purchased a few times from them. No problems really but once a few items were broken during shipment. Not their fault. Other than that, sold everything for a profit.

      Google the name and check out some reviews. Ignore those sites that offer coupons or cash back offers, or that have links to take you to eforchina's website etc. They are affiliate sites and they are the ones that publish good reviews.

      Apart from the unhappy experiences you will find reported, how can you make money when eforchina only give a dropshippers discount of 1.5% and they compete with you?

      If you want a bigger discount you have to spend $1,000.

      For that kind of money you can buy small quantities direct from the real manufacturers and get massive profit margins that will make you laugh at the tiny discounts offered by eforchina and all the other Chinese dropshipper sites that are retailing directly in competition with you..

        Thank you Importexport

        I did google and read some negative reviews of eforchina, with unhappy customers having received defective items or have received nothing at all for months... but those were casual customers I guess, so I wanted to hear from people who did dropshipping using that website...

        I'm not worried about defective items because the items I chose to sell are simple and small stuff (many people are unhappy with defective electronic items)...

        I'm also not concerned with making a decent profit as I just started in the business and am focused with selling and providing my customers with a good service.

        That's why I'm mainly concerned with eforchina's shipping performance.

    You "are not concerned with making a decent profit"! Wow. Why bother dealing with China. There are lots of US dropshippers that can do that for you. It's a lot faster to get your products shipped too, so you can not make much money sooner.

    Seriously, you might want to consider aiming a bit higher. It's way more fun to make a lot of money.

      It's temporary, until I set up my own warehouse...

      Plus you can find a wider ranger of products in China that at US dropshippers'...
      Plus I'm having a hard time finding US DSs who make it easy for you to search their catalogs for free before deciding to open an account with them...

    World-class fraud. I purchased two mobile phones on the site ALIEXPRESS, in known as Eforchina. After two months, one phone stopped working.
    I was not the case a new phone stops working after two months. Unfortunately, despite the promise of WARRANTY, the seller refused to replace the new phone and behaved in an ugly way

      Eforchina is not the same as Aliexpress. Eforchina now have a store on Aliexpress as well as still selling via their own website.

      Buying electronics, in particular phones from China is a very risky business.

      Have you tried contacting Aliexpress? The Aliexpress Buyer Protection policy won't cover you, but they just might possibly intervene with the supplier. I don't expect them to but it might be worth a try.

      If you look at earlier posts, including Post number 5, you will see that Eforchina have a notoriously bad reputation. Now they are selling on Aliexpress, with a sales page showing an imaginary great reputation, I expect to see a lot more people lose their money like you have unfortunately.
