"I too ordered from this company. Never received my order. Sent numerous emails to ERIC MELVIN and CUSTOMER SERVICE but to no avail. THEY TOOK MONEY FROM MY VISA BANKCARD. I AM OPENING A FRAUD SUPPORT TICKET WITH MY BANK. AVOID BUYING FROM ERIC MELVIN AND THEDROPSHIPWHOLESALER.COM. IT'S A SCAM! "
"I work late so most places are closed by the time I get home from work, but these guys are great. They have live chat at night. I bought an outdoor sink and workstation, and while the shipping was a bit high, I received it in perfect condition and it was about $10.00 less than anywhere else. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!"
"I just got an email from my customer that purchased a Logitech Dinovo Mini from me. I got it from thedropshipwholesaler.com and was able to make about $25 having it drop shipped from them. All went well and I will return and give them much more business. Overall 5 out of 5 stars. The shipping was reasonable but I did have to email them and ask for a tracking number. If they would automate that, I couldn't be happier."
"I placed an order for 12 blublocker sunglasses on June 12th 2009 and just received them via US Mail on the 20th. Although the shipping was a bit slow, the price couldn't be beat and I got a discount on shipping. I will definitely return and can recommend this company. I do recommend emailing or trying a live chat (if they're online) to ask for a shipping discount, though."
"On 2/26/09 I used paypal to order from their ebay store and have yet to receive my merchendise. I have contacted them by email 10 times with no response. Their store phone numbers have been disconnected. I have contacted ebay, paypal, www.IC3.com(internet fraud division), my bank, and my local law enforcement. They said I am S.O.L.!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are still selling merchendise online and at ebay stores...and still selling merchendise,taking orders, and people's money**** I am MAD AS HELL*** I BELIEVE IN KARMA **** WATCH YOUR BACK YOU S.O.B."
"Never shipped my order.Had my money for almost 2 months. Had to file claim through Paypal to get refund. Avoid at all costs."
"Do not purchase anything from thedropshipwholesaler.com. My order has been in "processing" status since 1/20/09. I have sent emails and every time I call them I get a message saying that the mailbox is full. Hopefully Paypal will honor my dispute claim and refund my money. I wish I had seen the other bad review before I placed my order. Don't make the same mistake that I did."
"thedropshipwholesaler.com is nothing but a SCAM, FRAUD, LIER, CHEAT, CRIMINAL, etc.
Essentially, all this company does is commit the crime of larcency on the poor unsuspecting customers that decide to give them a chance. PLEASE DO NOT BUY FROM THIS SELLER!!!!
They took (and still have) my money, failed to ever ship my order, are extremely difficult to get a hold of, and now refuse to communicate with me at all.
When inquiring as to my order in the past, I've been repeatedly lied to over the phone (when I actually manage to get someone on the phone), in emails, and during online chats. Seller has a multitude of phone numbers listed in both OH (website #) and GA (Paypal #), that when called ususally state that the mailbox is full and cannot accept any more messages.
When the OH number's mailbox is not full, a recording states that it belongs to an 'Acme Auction Sales' ("AAS"). AAS, whose website can be found at http://www.acmeauctionsales.com/, just as seller on its website, claims to have an eBay store, however, following the links on both sites reveal that no eBay stores actually exist.
AAS appears to have once had an eBay store, however, it looks as if their eBay account was suspended due to business practices similar to seller's. See: http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback2&userid=acmeauctionsales&ftab=AllFeedback
thedropshipwholesaler.com domain name is registered to one Asa Wilkison of Waycross, GA. AAS domain name is registered to one Michael Carr of New Boston, OH. Also, seller claims to be owned by an entity known as "Bulldog Enterprises," which is supposedly owned by one Jay Beck, who is actually Jason W. Evans of Wheelersburg, OH.
The only other reviews I could find about seller are also all negative and can be found at:

Conversation with Paypal revealed that seller looted its account and ran to prevent any refunds from actually successfully going through the Paypal system.
DO NOT BUY FROM SELLER - YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
If you have been defrauded by this seller, please contact me at ****@****. I may be able to help."
