Is that so called "Gold Suppliers"?!!
I posted several quotation letters on Alibaba, and based on our old bad experience in looking for suppliers, we didn't post our true fax and phone numbers on it just making sure that we won't be bothered by thousands of eninvited calls. We prefer to contact us by emails.
That's the second time i used trademessenger. I received hundreds of adding requests from suppliers. And most of them on shoes are offering the fake brand name products. I need to repeat what i have noted on my quotation letters "No brand name products at all, thanks"again and again. And sometimes, most of them are from the same city named "Putian" and all of them are gold suppliers. I don't know what's the matter with Alibaba. But that's the truth. And i have to say the same thing to different employees in the same company, i really feel exhausted. That's not the worst thing.
One from the gold supplier company said some contumelious words to me when i told him we don't need any branded products. And the following contents are message history. That sucks. And really awful!

That's all, i want to know is that so called "Gold Suppliers"?! How do you choose your gold supplier members plz let me know!! Are they gold suppliers just because they paid much higher premium or not?

Replying to [lorakeen]: They are Gold Suppliers who yes have paid a large premium for advertising on Alibaba. But Gold Suppliers can only be from China, and or Hong Kong.

Replying to [lorakeen]:

Agree... Golden supplier pay money to Alibaba.com then hire 5-10 seller to contact the buyer.

Replying to [Ranger]: Thanks, Ranger, i understand what the problem is now. But since they're planning to run a good biz, is that a right way to choose their suppliers?!

Replying to [lorakeen]:
Maybe you were really exhausted that time. From the message history you posted here, seems you first use the word"Shit"-which is seriously considered as a contumelious word to me-An educated Chinese. So you triggered first.

If I were you I would use the "Auto reply" function in Trademanager, in which you could type in your limitation one time only.

In fact, as a paid supplier-a so called "Gold supplier" of Alibaba.com, we also facing the big problem. Alibaba is just organizing a competition-Who pays more, who has the front postion of the first page.

So, I believe the "Gold supplier" could not be directly judged as the standard of a company making better or worse business.

Just shows-They had contributed a bulk to Alibaba.com's cash flow.

Everything goes difficult from the beginning. Seems you havn't set up your supply net work from China.

Just be patient! Most of Chinese companies are willing to do business honestly and fairly.

sad

Replying to [lorakeen]: all these companies(gold members) need to be scanned, there has to be a certain standard set here.

Replying to [Strollingshark]:
thanks for your reply. If you were me at that time, you can't keep calm down, there are hundreds of sellers offering fake brand name products, and they claimed what they supplied are geniune products?! But they can't offer you any certificates or release letter from the brand name company. what a shame it is?! I have repeated to what i said thousands times i don't need any brand name products, even add this sentence in my posted enquiry letters and shown in my status. No one read them carefully at all. What they did is just keeping talking the fake brand name products again and again. You must repeat the same words to dozens of sellers in the same company. Can you be cool as usual?! I can't imagine that. How awful it is
