Seren review for BigBuy ‑ Dropshipping carriers

March 12, 2025

If you are considering BigBuy - DON'T. 688170 is my ID. All the positive reviews seems to be from people who are new and it looks like they asked them for reviews. After working for a almost a year with BigBuy and if you are reading this review note the following. 1) their prices are sometimes HIGHER than those of official retailers (we focus on niche perfume and skincare) 2) it's very hard to compete against other retailers and make money, for some orders we actually lost money. 3) BECAUSE of BigBuy's INSANE shipping policy, in many cases if you are ordering 2+ items, they will charge you TWICE for the shipping, which is alwasy 10 - 15 EURO (crazy price for Europe) and you lose money. as your margin is low and you are not able to cover their shipping with it. 4) Shipping is crazy slow, two weeks at least to Greece or other countries that are not close to central Europe. 5) when something happens during the shipping BigBuy will not help you in any way — you are on your own. 6) in general all their backend is not perfect, and there are a lot of small things you have to figure out. 7) be prepared to write all descriptions and find images for your products -- their images in many cases are very bad, they provide only a single image, sometimes (very often) there is a mismatch between name/description/product. 8) Also if your order is going to Spain they will charge you VAT anyway which is 21%. Now what they are doing is -- they are not updating their catalogs properly, customer orders something, they were silent in my case for 1 week, the customer was inquiring about their order, as nothing was happening. Then turns out they don't have the product. Today they silently issued a refund for one of the orders, not stating anything about the order. We are getting 1 star reviews and getting very frustrated customers. The service is horrible. We are looking for alternatives. Just know this before you start with bigbuy. \
