I became a member with Specialty Merchandise Corporation "SMC" on April 1. I was not looking to make millions nor was I looking to make thousands. I was just looking for a second income to help pay some on my student loans for college.
I had plenty of ideas as how to sell SMC items. I started off in my neighborhood, well as it turned out the everyone knew about SMC in one way or another and wouldn't buy any of the items do to poor quality or the shipping rates.in my eyes this was a minor set back, but I still kept a open mind. I then went to flea markets and yardsales. When I went to the flea markets and the yardsales, to check it all out, it turns out that there are people just like me their with there SMC merchandise doing nothing but standing watching people go by there tables.
I then tried Ebay, which turns out is FLOODED with SMC merchandise. None of the SMC merchandise was selling on Ebay, either do to the HIGH SHIPPING costs or the poor quality of the merchandise. After not gettting started in Ebay, I then started renting space in an antinque mall, hoping to sell some SMC Merchandise. That lasted 6 months, since I couldnt keep going in the hole with not making any money.
I tried to selling SMC merchandise for 11 months total. I paid my membership fees $399.50 and I paid for $800 in merchandise that just sat and collected dust in the antique mall. I tried to return the merchandise for a refund but all I could get is credit on the merchandise. I guess they wern't going to pay for that crap either! I am in the hole $1199 dollars with this company.
I contacted my Coach (What a Joke and the rudest person on the Planet) duing the 11 month period, I asked her for information on some money making programs that I didnt already try, well she didnt have anything to tell me, It was pretty much I was SOL. I thought to her please tell me something casue I can go down to the seven eleven and ask some joe blow on how to sell stuff. Then I sent several emails to customer service, asking for a different Coach and never got any response. I left voice messages for customer service people. What do you know, No response! There Customer service is a JOKE! On the informecial all they talk about is how SMC has your back and your not alone in the company, thats a bunch of BULLSH*T! Its so hard to beleive that they would treat there members like nothing. Without their members there is no SMC.
The biggest problem with SMC is there merchandise. There items are such a poor quality, its not funny. The Goodwill wouldn't have it! Its bad enough that when the people in the company won't help you but its even worse when the product is trash that you are trying to sell.
I wish someone would put an end to SMC. They should have to pay a price for all of the money they have taken from people over the years. SMC IS A RIPOFF! For everyone that says otherwise, I have this to say "THE TRUTH WILL STAND WHEN THE WORLD IS ON FIRE"
