In Guangzhou, China, there are lots of online wholesale companies, of different sizes. Overall, the majority of such firms are small and medium-sized. Banggood.com is one of the small online shops, based on my personal rating. However, behind the website is a big team led by an ambitious man who has been achieving great success by selling a variety of products at eBay. As I know, the boss of Bandgood had been an airplane driver before he started his business at eBay.
Like many other successful eBay sellers, the founder of Banggood was no longer satisfied with the revenues and achievements he has got at the eBay platform and created an individual website to sell products. Although the website is still young, it is quite mature in product lines, technical support and customer service as the leader has abundant experience in foreign trade management – he had a professional team with sales people, marketing talents, service representatives and tech support guys to assist him in selling products at eBay.
The main areas Banggood.com covers are mostly categories that have helped the man gain huge profits at eBay, including consumer electronics and accessories, apparel and fashion accessories, flashlights & lasers and home & garden. In particular, cell phone accessories (e.g. earphones, cases, chargers, stylus pens, screen protectors, etc.) and LED lights are extremely hot-selling there. Toys, sporting goods, cosplay costumes and motor accessories are the minor areas that are slightly smaller in terms of product line.
The prices Banggood offers are extensively low and competitive as the site’s core target customers are businesses, retailers and resellers. Even for retail orders, wholesale prices are available. The difference is, when you purchase more in a single order, you will get an even lower unit price. You can visit the Banggood.com site to see the detailed pricing – I am sure you will be surprised.
Banggood also provides dropshipping service for its customers who run their own online business at eBay or at individual websites of their own. By dropshipping products from Banggood, these businesses (of whatever size) are able to reduce costs and risks of keeping an inventory.
Though based on my research, Banggood is a legitimate China-based online wholesale shopping site, to ensure that you get a secure shopping experience at Banggood.com, I would suggest you be cautious as much as you can. Choosing a safer payment method like PayPal should be one of the great options to protect your interests. Then, before you decide to build long-term cooperative relationship with the site, you can also place a small order to test the water first.
