There is a company out there whose business model is based upon lying. Yes that's right, lying. It's the same kind of model con artists, drug dealers and other criminals adopt. They'll piss down your back and tell you it's raining. When you call their bluff they act hurt and play victim.
Last year I noticed one of their many website was selling wholesale. I confronted them and they played stupid. I kept badgering them until they agreed to raise prices. They decided on 9/11. I wonder if they had anything to do with 9/11??? That's a funny date to pick. Basically they sabotaged all my sales because they saw me as a threat building a strong customer base and also effortlessly dominating search standings without spending one penny. Why was I so successful? Did I go to college to learn some new tricks? I was successful because I am a deal maker. I can negotiate. I am fair and just. I am candid. I know Halloween and people appreciated my knowledge and how I knew everything about the products I sold because I studied them.
So for 9 months last year I had to compete with my distributor who was selling wholesale to anyone who approached them or landed on one of their many sites including secret ebay handles. 9 fucking months I had a knife in my back. You see it's about the time kids go back to school(early Sept.) people take notice of Halloween. There is a chill in the air. The tomatoes are all turning red, bees are dying, days are getting noticeably shorter, it's warm during the day and cool at night, the brush is dying back and leaves are getting a little crisp as they make preparation to descend. You see by that time having held me back by undercutting me they assured themselves the larger portion of sales because they can afford to buy search standings. They're going to have people hit one of their numerous wholesale destinations. There other business model is back stabbing.
Very recently my sales have dropped and I was thinking it must be the economy. Then I went to one of their sites and noticed they were back to wholesaling. They were wholesaling everywhere including totally unknown sites like Amazon. No one shops on Amazon. It's not like Amazon doesn't advertise or anything. So I confront them again and their reaction was the last straw.
I was told the bmw driving dork of a ceo was just another reseller! I was told they don't make money on shipping. I was told they were very concerned with my concerns and had the audacity to ask me to point out which prices I did not like!!! They charge me $12-$14 to ship a little lightweight item that could easily ship USPS Priority(free box and all)but would charge customers on their wholesale sites $6 s&h. Mind you the principle was pennies or a dollar above the wholesale price they charge me!
It costs money to list on ebay or feebay as well as my own websites. I can't compete with those prices. In this day and age very few customers purchase without researching the lowest price. I worked very hard and they were the beneficiaries of my tireless efforts and this is an illustration of how ungrateful they truly are. Shouldn't really come as a surprise considering the criminal history of the city in which they dwell with a foreigner for a mayor whose father was a terrorist. They're nothing but a bunch of soulless fucks who can go fuck off!
