Zibus represents themselves as "The World's Online Dropshipper". As someone interested in dropshipping I visited their website.
From their website: Zibus offers a turnkey drop ship service through which entrepreneurs can sell over 35 million products on eBay or their own eCommerce websites. Zibus has partnered directly with nearly 1,000 of the world's largest suppliers and manufacturers like Wal-Mart, Target, Nordstrom, Gap, Eddie Bauer and more to provide an exclusive drop ship opportunity to those who are serious about making a substantial income selling online without the standard headaches of purchasing and stocking your own inventory and dealing with merchandise shipping and returns. 100% of our suppliers will drop ship with no extra fees.

HERE'S THE SCAM: "APPLY NOW TO BECOME AN AUTHORIZED DEALER" - They have you fill out an application and charge a fee of $19.95 for processing this application. They then send you an email that says you have been "accepted" and give you a number to call. I called the number and it was out of service so I called their toll free number and they explained to me that their service costs $5,000 up front.
I asked them why this fact wasn't mentioned on their website. I got a lame answer about how they receive thousands of phone calls a day, blah blah blah. I said what does that have to do with anything? You can't charge people $19.95 only to be told you have to pay $5,000 for their service. People wouldn't "apply" if they knew that simple fact. They are making money off of people filling out applications. It's a total crock and I want my $19.95 back!
It's sad that people that want to create a dropship business for themselves have to deal with this. Zibus is deceptive at the very least. I have no idea if their dropship service works because I wasn't about to give them $5,000 of my hard-earned dollar!
