just saw this ad on yeshiva world for a new company called Deal and Runner.

they are saying they are not a buying group but rather more of a direct transaction between the buyer and the dealer.... to me it sounds just like another buying group. anyone have any experience or thoughts on his?

Nothing engenders more confidence than an advertorial that quotes the CEO*

I would think it could be even worse than a buying group if you're getting paid by the 'dealer'. Unless the dealers are putting lots of info about themselves and building a reputation on there, you probably know even less about the entity paying you than you do when you buy for a BG. And there are two parties (the Dealer and the middleman guy) to shift any blame between each other, in an already murky business.

Alol. That's something that I always saw as massive difference between DDMS and its various copycats out there. From the ones I've seen, few if any had owners/writers who put their name behind it. (Same with many of the tabloid-style jewish news sites, but that's a whole other animal.) Offhand I can't think of any legitimate business anywhere where the management hides behind the business name. If you're confident in the legitimacy and quality of what you're offering, why wouldn't you want to be associated with it?

do ppl use the Amex amazon card for BG?
I assume amex often do see more granular level purchase detail. do amex mind the BG spend? (not interested in burning an existing relationship)

separate/related:
do anyone do BG spend through Biz accts (checking/CC) vs personal? any real difference?

Biz CC balances (usually) don't show on you credit report.

thanks.
assuming most will pay from personal bank accts, even when using biz CC.
is it theoretically more 'kosher' to keep it all in the biz 'ecosystem'?

I use one for mix of personal stuff and BG. I don't think they mind especially bc they limit their 5x to $120k per card

Besides chase prime card and Amex  Amazon business card what are other credit cards that give at least 3 points for purchase made through Amazon?
If you have a sign-up link, feel free to PM me

It’s just a way to market themselves differently to draw traffic and give crazy commissions to get attention as well once they start getting what they need commissions by them will come down it’s a BG not worried but more groups means market will move down on stuff

If I ordered items directly to USA BG can I stop by them to pick up a check, or is that only if I deliver them the items personally?

I believe it's the latter. They may allow you to pick up the check as opposed to them sending it to you, but will still incur processing times.

For a beginner, which BG would be recommended?

I actually agree with this, TDB/BG is one place I have never had an issue (the one time there was a discrepancy they immediately paid out no questions asked).

BFMR is my fave

I am one of the biggest buyers for buying groups, I have done millions in transactions and have sent to every group there is over the past 3 years. Most buying groups are okay, some scan in slower than others, some pay slower than others - most will lose a few packages over the year. You can research and find which are better for you.

However there is a bigger problem now with Amazon itself.  Amazon in the past has been great with any problems always ready with a refund for lost packages even if it was thousands of dollars. Lately Amazon has clamped down and has tagged these buying groups addresses  in their systems as "freight forwarder" and now no longer will fix any problem you have whatsoever. Doesn't matter what the problem is, even if it shows the package was never delivered, amazon will not help you in any way. Their copy and paste response will always be "this item was sent to a freight forwarder and we're unable to replace or refund the item. We recommend contacting your freight forwarder for more details, as we don't have any more insight or information regarding this matter, For more information about sending items via freight forwarders, please visit our Help Pages: https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=201117950." As well the amazon drivers either must know this or have been increasingly bad at delivering packages because the numbers of packages missing has gone up astronomically. Previously you would have very few packages missing, now the past 3 months I have had 59 "lost" packages. I now have over $15,000 of loses and some guy in Delaware is probably living the life with all the stuff he stole from me. I will survive, I have made a lot more than $15,000 over the years however just a warning to others here that things are not as they used to be and it really is no longer worth doing buring groups with all the loses piling up
