JohnPilot 1 Posted March 17, 2014 Welcome. Great intro. The idea is good but It will be quite hard. I only know one non chinese TD, Narika. But you will get lots of info here and I guess that you are no noob in reps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fat Panda 30 Posted March 17, 2014 Hard Is okay, Impossible, well that's quite another thing. I'm committed to trying to make it work, and doing it the right way. Sure, ill make mistakes, but that's part of the learning process. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Del Boy 0 Posted March 17, 2014 Appreciate you are very honest upfront but I think it's a case of crawl... walk... and then run. Hard but not impossible... the key with trust is it takes time and hard work to achieve but is very fast to lose as a few muppets have found out very quickly even those who have been around for years. Best of luck, please don't be a muppet. Follow the rules for now and you'll be fine. Del Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pseudonym 0 Posted March 18, 2014 Best of luck in your quest. As many have said, trusted status does not come easily. You seem like you have your tie on straight, however the proof will be in the pudding. My advice would be to mingle amidst us bunch of reprobates for a significant period of time and generally get to know us. Then take it a step at a time. Welcome and good luck. P.

Fat Panda 30 Posted March 18, 2014 Thanks. Sounds like good advise to us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nyckid 0 Posted March 18, 2014 Fat Panda, welcome. In numerous posts on this thread you have mentioned "...my wife and I have to eat.." and "....if we don't starve..." or something among the lines. To me these are signs of shortage of time and maybe cash? and both you need plenty of, for what you're aspiring to do here. However, it is doable and like members who have been longer than me on this site have stated, it is a very tidious and long process to be a TD here. Hell, the ones here have to work hard to maintain their spot. I have always said that Custumer Service is one of the hardest jobs out there. Only for the reason of dealing with a vast number of individuals whom in some cases aren't easy to deal with in the first place. In any case, I wish you best of lucks to you and your wife.

Daywatch 4 Posted March 21, 2014 Hi FP and welcome to the forum. Seems like one brick was half out of the way fast. Enough room still for an entrepreneurial mind to improve things and build a distinguished reputation/ specialization as long as You have the access to quality reps.: good quality, good prices, faster, reliable in-house qc, reliable waterproofing/test, much faster shipping to EU or just the other way round: lower prices for all samples with slight flaws, slow but cheaper shipping to EU etc. etc. Looking forward to your offers/website. Good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pseudonym 0 Posted March 21, 2014 Congrats Tim. I'm sure your ethos of how you want to do things will stand you in good stead and see you take a place hers as TD all in good time. Best of luck again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
