Complete sham
I spent a fortune
Locked out of selling on Amazon because of them
Products are so shabby
Sites they provide are slow and even though you have access you cannot change much about the site at all
When I asked for a refund I have been pushed around and ignored
Told to improve the SEO on their site which is so bad.
They have a high sign up fee, a high monthly fee and hosting server monthly fee high as well!!
I am stuck paying fees trying to resolve but they have no refund policy
They sell branded products but this is illegal as you have no brand or certificates to sell on Amazon or anywhere else!!
watch or you will get a lifetime ban on most selling outlets online!!
what a terrible experience and I am still living it.
Trustpilot.com but in there name just look at all the bad reviews. They even tried to report Trustpilot to get rid of these reviews. Shocking.
I have really learned a hard lesson. Lost allot of money no return
and there answer is to sell there products to get a return. Shocking
Hi,
I use bigbuy since 3 mounths. I have the "Dropship pack". it's 49€ / mouth
I did't choose the full solution with the website because it's expensive, I chose to build my own PrestaShop.
Here is some feedback and advices :
- I bought the pack before finish my website, now all is ready, SEO, marketing strategy, but i spent 3*49€ and not yet any clients.
- But with the pack, you have access to API. It's necessary if you want to synchronize your Prestashop database to bigbuy products and inventory/stocks.
- You have 2 solutions to synchronize your shop :
- Manually : Bugbuy provice CSV files, with all products, prices, inventory ... you have do download manually theses files, and open it in excel to apply your filters, then you import your new CSV in prestashop. The problem is to update the inventory you have to repeat this operation every days ... it's a long operation, and you have some risk using the importation module in production. (human error risk, or prestashop bug maybe, ...)
- Auto : Buying a prestashop module. I not tested, it's expensive and i am developer so i prefer to do it myself
- You can import the category csv provided by bigbuy, but i chose to create my own categories in Prestashop, and report them in the product csv file.
- To update my inventory, i have developed a python scrypt, it request the Bigbuy API and receives the inventory in Json, then it update my database. The script is lanched every 30min by a cron.
- I recommand to use Prestashop 1.6.*, not 1.7*. I tested first the 1.7 but the new prestashop import process is not compatible with the CSV format provided by Bigbuy. (1.6 format).
- I tested the dropship service buying a usbkey for myself, i received it 4 days later (France), the packaging is very correct and i have a shipping note, with my logo, my site name and the procuct list without prices.
I recommand BigBuy

Ask Bigbuy to provide certificates for selling branded products
Watch your back

- You have 2 solutions to synchronize your shop :
- I chosen to do a first manual import using the CSV files provided by bigbuy. I filtered in Excel all products i want to sell, and redefine my own category_id for each.
