Spocket: USA & EU Dropshipping

Unexpectedly really bad for Europe and specially indoor gardening

When I closed a older store of mine they robbed my money and didn't cancel it. even though I didn't use any of their services. Don't install this if you don't want to get scammed. BTW, there is no free plan like they said and you can't enter the app without selecting a paid plan.

我8月19日安裝Spocket，在9月2日卸載，這符合他們答應的14天免費試用規定，可我卻在9月4日收到PayPal的59.99美元的扣款通知，經寫信去客服部門詢問也都不回答，跟當初他們要招攬我安裝該軟件天天來信的情況，真有天壤之別，在Shopify後臺沒有顯示扣款記錄，可他們似乎跳過Shopify的規定，私下跟我扣的款，所以我判斷這是一家非常不好的公司。

Complaint to Shopify about Spocket

I installed Spocket on August 19th and uninstalled it on September 2nd, which complies with their promised 14-day free trial period. However, on September 4th, I received a notification of a $59.99 USD deduction from PayPal. Despite writing to the customer service department for inquiries, I did not receive any response. This is a stark contrast to the frequent emails they sent to persuade me to install the software initially. There is no record of the deduction in the Shopify backend, indicating that they bypassed Shopify's regulations and deducted the amount privately. Therefore, I conclude that this is a very unethical company.

3rd class app and developers are not even trying to put any efforts in this app. It takes hours and hours to import products and sometimes no products are even imported. Now I deleted all my products from spocket still I can’t uninstall this app due to an error that says inventory is present in spocket. Don’t waste your time with this app.

I'm looking through Spocket for the millionth time after installing and reinstalling it. The real variety of products is in the aliexpress section which are just links to aliexpress products/sellers, not only can you import aliexpress for free with DSers, but blindly adding aliexpress linked products from spocket to your store is one sure way to ruin your reputation before you even start. Why? Most aliexpress products now are promoted by "CHOICE," the aliexpress version of Amazon, meaning aliexpress and choice will be all over the package your customer recieves. Meanwhile the US options are literally just random things added by random sellers they allow on the platform, looks like a thrift shop, bad images, immature and vague description etc, and we're expected to pay $40 just to get started building a thriftshop lol. Not to mention that their listings are so high expecting you to be okay with a few dollars, as if youre not going to be investing in paid ads which leaves you nothing.

WARNINGGGGG: I never opted for a subscription plan, not even a free trial. Just downloaded it for a day to look at their offerings then uninstalled the app. My paypal said I have an "auto-pay" of $39.99 scheduled for Spocket, I signed in to my spocket account again, it was showing that I def have the free plan with no subscription on. I was only able to cancel the auto pay directly from my Paypal since the spocket account shows as free trial. I have no idea how it fished my paypal info, prob because paypal is connected to shopify. Beware, if you're credit card is the one connected to shopify the auto pay may not be as obvious.

Update: They've been spamming me with emails a few times a week ever since my review, cc'ing almost everyone in their department. Bipolar as a company, leave me alone! Blocked them and reported as spam but still in my inbox, new email from one of their staff each time!!!

I strongly recommend that you do not download this software, it is really disgusting. There was obviously a 14-day free trial period, but after choosing it, I couldn’t cancel it at all. I uninstalled it after watching it for a few minutes after downloading it for the first time. But they still deducted my money, tried to cancel the subscription several times, but refused to return my money. It’s really disgusting.

For the products shipped from EU and shipped to EU, the shipment time being shown is 15-30 days. Hilarious!

I used Spocket for over a year on the unicorn plan connected to a Shopfiy store. For us, some orders get processed fast, with no issues BUT too many don't. The main issue are the Sellers on the platform. Sellers don't seem to keep their inventory up to date. As a result, orders we receive end up not getting fulfilled in one way or another. Also, response time from Sellers is very slow which mean's customers have to wait for a long time only to get a response that item is not available! Spocket support is there (which is good) but they too must wait for Seller and can't do much other than wait. Sometime Seller cancels order without any reason! Also, when the sync is lost between Spocket and Shopify, it leaves inventory info inaccurate on Shopify. There don't have a tool to fix this.

I hope Spocket cleans up and kicks the slow responding Sellers off the platform very soon and addresses the Sync issue otherwise I will stop using them. I am not waiting for them and looking to find a better platform.

Just hope you never have an issue with them. I did not recall purchasing a year membership and as soon as it was deducted from my account I contacted Spocket to see if it were possible to receive a refund. One of the reps said they would get back to me in 48 hours. I never heard back. I contacted them again and over several conversations, not only was nothing resolved but they also stopped answering me, which I consider very disrespectful. I would not work with them again and would recommend Zendrop or Syncee for someone looking to dropship as they have better customer service.

Guys there is no FREE PLAN, i just installed this app to import products from aliexpress to shopify but it won't let you do it unless you get their paid plan.

It clearly says 'free plan' has aliexpress dropshipping on shopify appstore but it's not. I even asked their agent on live chat..
