My name is Jacob, I just started the flea market business when I got laid off from work and since I got all week to do things I thought maybe I can start making something out of spear time and so I was going through the web looking for stuff to sell and I have seen smc tv ads and their pictured sample products and even going their website and check out their membership prices however their price was a little too much for any investment for me at least. Because if I spend the 365 I figure I'm already behind so I just submitted my contact information if they have any other offer.

On September 19, 2008 I've got a called from their telemarketeer and he wasn't gonna take a "no" for an answer and I tried to say no in many different way but still didn't put down the phone (big mistake). So finally I gave in becuase his sell pitch was I got nothing to loose, if I signed up for the bigvalue package at 365 I will recieve a 300 dollar voucher that I can use for anything like paying my member fee not to mention the free coaching and catalog that they provide so that I can start selling immediately and I would also have my own webpage to sell all these product without having any inventory so I thought, if I like what I see 65 dollars isn't much to me anymore I thought. So I signed up.

Well, two days later they send my log in info that I can go into the back door to view the product at 40% below what they sell to the public. So product by product I have checked and compar to what they sell and what other site are selling to my suprise it wasn't that much different. I could of made more profit buy buying from other site and never have to pay member price. So I called to cancel but what I got was a recording and found out that I can't do that yet because I have to send the starter kit back as well before they can close the account. And you cannot refuse the delivery if the kit has not been delivered yet.

So 8 days later the kit came with tons of catalog that I can review and start selling if I choose I thougth that was professional so I look for the 300 dollar that he promised. Never saw it, so after reviewing everything I realize there is no way would I make any money on the product that they have because it's just too expensive for the customer at my flea market. So I send them back.

And another thing is that emechantclub that host your webpage before you is the worse one. On their email they said that they domain name that they assigned to you is temporary and you must set up with with them if you want an online store. What they didn't tell you is the fact that is your domain and if you want to change the name you can set up with them. So you'r already being charge hosting fee as soon as you sign up for membership.

This company is purposely run you around until the get their money. So please just say no. And yes I am reporting them to better business bureau I know they will not do anything but at least someone else can see my post just like this.
