$25 Dollar Laptop on DH-Gate? Seriously??

DHgate is a website that sells products mainly from the far east, it is known for selling very cheap products direct from China but I was still surprised to see this 1080p i7 Laptop on offer for just $25 US Dollars!

When I heard about this I couldn’t believe it so I had to do some digging to get the bottom of this, one of my subscribers brought this to my attention and so I took a look and sure enough there was a Laptop on DHgate for $25.

This is obviously far too good to be true but some people may be fooled into parting with their money so I’m making this video to remind folks that there are things listed on DHgate that aren’t real or you may never receive, so be careful when making buying decisions and treat each listing with a healthy dose of caution! Try to find reviews from real people, some of the reviews on DHgate are fake so be sure to do some homework beforehand to find sellers that can be trusted and products that have verifiable quality. There are good sellers on DH-gate and some products are great quality but there are also plenty of bad sellers with bad quality and sometimes no items and just scams, so be careful, take care and don’t lose your money.

If you have bought a Laptop from DHgate I would be interested to hear your thoughts on the build quality and reliability in the comments.

Amazon’s Free Repricer Tool – Help or Hindrance?

Amazon offers a free repricer for all sellers with a Pro level Amazon seller account, many people are probably happy to make use of a free resource and don’t think too much more about it. Well, I’m here to tell you that you really SHOULD think some more about it, in fact, you should think a lot about it because that little tool that you are thinking is pretty good for free might be doing the opposite and COSTING you money in lost profits you see, the Amazon repricer is very good at bringing down your prices to the bottom of your minimum levels but not so good at taking them back up if the competition sells out, so don’t think of it as a repricer in the normal sense, more of a price decreaser!

They don’t have your best interests in mind- Are they looking to maximise your profits? Do they want you to make as much as possible?

It will tank your prices and therefore profits -Amazon is only interested in getting the best prices for their customers and they don’t care about your profits!

It will bring all your prices down in a heartbeat but won’t bring them back up as competition sells out. Amazons rules are not designed to reprice in both directions only down, so if you are looking to sell all your stock regardless of profits then it will do a good job for you, if you are looking to do that with a free tool then again, it’s going to be great for you.. BUT if like me, you are a fan of profit! and making money then the Amazon repricer will not work for you.

I honestly believe that the Amazon repricer is responsible for tanking a lot of great product lines and great profits due to sellers using the free Amazon repricer and with seconds all their prices are at rock bottom and crucially stay there, so when other sellers come to the listing they price at that rock bottom price and then after a time because the prices never recover the rock bottom price is now the new price and there is no longer any profit because it only takes one person to be prepared to sell it for 27p profit and that is where it stays.

Amazon is not your friend people, if they offer you something for free it’s for a very good reason and it’s not because they want to be nice. It will hurt your business it will hurt other re-sellers businesses, the only one it doesn’t hurt is Amazon who gets the best possible prices for their customers without selling anything and collects all the fees which are three times more than you are making. They are win -win-win while we are loose- loose loose.

Be smart people, don’t go for the cheaper option, it will cost you way more in the long run.

How to Hack Amazon Seller Support – 5 Tips to Get Your Issue Solved Quickly

If you’ve been selling on Amazon FBA for a while you will probably at some point felt the frustration of dealing with Amazon seller support!

We need them sometimes for advice or help with refunds, getting feedback removed they play a vital role but they can be VERY hit and miss depending on who you get to answer your request for help.

In this video, I’m going to give you some advice to help you get better results each time you need to contact them and maybe help take the stress out of the whole experience!

Think of Amazon as a massive automated machine, it’s been built to run without too much human contact for the everyday processing, it would be impossible for a human to be involved in the volume of orders going through Amazon every minute of every day, so when something doesn’t quite go to plan you may need to interact with a human.

The seller support agents are based around the world but a large number of the first line support are based in India where the hourly rate for a degree level worker is very low indeed.

The quality of who you get to answer your request can vary massively from someone that gets what you are saying straight away and helps you quickly all the way through to a hopeless case that will have no idea what you want and be of no help whatsoever.

So the first tip is 1. Be persistent! If you don’t get the answer you need the first time round you can re-open the case and ask again maybe in a different way, when you reply you will not get the same agent reply it will be someone else completely and they may understand your issue better than the first and get you sorted in no time. so be persistent and keep at them until you get what you need.

2.Email first, due to the language issues you will often be better off contacting seller support via email so you can write down your issue clearly if later on you are still not getting anywhere you can try the phone approach, you can sometimes get through to second-line support via the phone which will often be in your country so they are much more likely
to understand a more complicated issue and get your point across successfully.

3. Click the Urgent Button!
If you have an issue that needs a prompt response then you can click the tick box below the email text box that says “this issue is urgent and requires immediate attention” you will get a
much quickest response within an hour usually or if you choose the phone option an agent will call you within a few minutes usually.

4. Keep it simple, if you have a few things that need sorting out don’t put them all in the same help request, you will most likely confuse things (it doesn’t take much) and won’t get them the attention they need. Instead open a case for each issue and address the issue clearly and what needs doing. You can open multiple tickets at once and each of them will be answered by a different support agent.

5. Work the system! Pretty much the whole of Amazon is based on algorithms that process all the data flying around Amazon, seller support is just the same, so if your ticket has been open for a while and hasn’t been resolved the skill level of the person that attends to your issue will be higher, it’s no coincidence that the third person you speak to about an issue understands straight away and gets it done. The algorithm escalated your ticket to a more senior assistant who is more capable of helping you out, these people are probably more highly paid and so you only get one of them once the first line support hasn’t been able to help so try not to get too frustrated if your support assistant doesn’t get the job done, just keeping replying to the ticket be clear that your issue hasn’t been resolved and what you need to happen and eventually you should get someone that can help you and get you sorted out.
