HugePOD Print On Demand Wholesale & DropshippingReviews of hugepod.com

I love how i can use my own designs and be creative with the way i add them on your lovely products. the quality of your products with my designs are amazing. What i don't like is how long it takes to fulfill, ship and receive orders. If you have a store or customers you will lose money do to the long wait when you are promised fast service. I guess it's do to not having enough products in the USA. Most of your products are being shipped out of Hong Kong and the shipping service go through 15 different carriers. I also realize a lot of products you have listed are empty like jeans for instance, there are not a lot of categories or different products to choose from. over all the quality of the products are great and the easy creativity is amazing. You need faster fulfillment and shipping service for Hong Kong shipments and i will rate Hugepod #1.

I hope this thorough review helps people decide if Hugepod is worth it or not. Hugepod is a legitimate company. I have a business with them and have ordered from them directly. They have some pros but in my opinion they have too many cons and it makes business with them not worth it. I am a Dropshipper and I am speaking from the perspective of someone who uses Hugepod to dropship products to customers. Pros Product Prices: Their product prices are fairly low which means you as a seller can offer products at competitive prices. Many of their T-shirts run between $8-12 wholesale. This is their biggest pro because other POD printing companies like Printify/Printful will charge $50 wholesale for a T-shirt. 10/10 Product Catalog: They offer a vast array of products beyond clothing such as accessories like jewelry and belts and even home products like clocks, umbrellas and towels. They offer far more than most other printing companies. 10/10 Design Interface: Their Design interface is easy to use and along with offering you a gallery of free images and art to use, you also have the option to upload your own images. You can drag, drop and place your designs and stretch them any way you please (but there are limits to how big you can make an image unless you use HD image printing). 8/10 HugePod is Constantly improving their site: Hugepod is making improvements to their site constantly which is great. They recently updated their mock up images which makes the products look neater. Before they used models but the models quarter-turn poses made it hard to design certain outfits. They made it easier to apply certain designs to multiple products. Can Link HugePod Store to Many Sites: You can link your Hugepod Store to Wix, Shopify, WooCommerce, Big Commerce, Shopalazza, etc. Customer Support: Customer Support is professional and responsive. They do take suggestions and feedback which is a huge plus because it means they will eventually get around to fixing the negatives. If you (like myself) have a list of Negatives about Hugepod I suggest reaching out to Hugepod Support and see if they can make changes to make things better. Now let's get into the Cons. Cons Shipping Prices: Since their factories are overseas in China and Vietnam their shipping prices are ridiculously high since they're being shipped internationally (if you're in the USA like myself). And instead of charging by order weight they charge per item by charging full shipping for your first item and cut shipping in half for subsequent items. I've seen hoodies and dresses with a $12 shipping cost. So if you purchase a dress, T-shirt and Hoodie, the shipping alone would be nearly equal to the wholesale price of the items themselves. The only good thing is that they now offer Standard shipping which is a dollar or more cheaper than what it was originally, but the shipping still isn't competitive. 1/10 Shipping: Cost aside, shipping itself is also a major con. Not only does it take a long time for packages to reach the United States but international packages are subjected to far more than domestic. Conflicts, production shortages etc can all delay a package and when customers pay for Express shipping it angers them when packages don't arrive on time. Quality: Their quality varies. Their polyester all-over print hoodies and shirts typically comes out looking far better than their cotton prints, their T-shirts, Crop Tops, Tank tops and some hoodies are good quality for the price. I don't print anything on my cotton products I just offer them in different colors. Some products like their oversized unisex drop shoulder hoodie has either bad stitching or itchy lining on the inside. I haven't tried any of their home/living products so I can't speak on their quality yet. 5/10 HugePod constantly Discontinues Items: A major flaw with Hugepod. They discontinue items far too constantly and rapidly. I just received a notification from them the other day that a tied-knot crop top was discontinued and they just added them to their catalog a month ago. They claim they discontinue items that don't sell well but they only give them a month to take off. This means business owners are left constantly having to update our inventory and if a customer orders the product just before Hugepod Discontinues it they're out of luck. A huge headache and leaves owners with many angry customers. Hugepod Customer Support Hours: Based in China, if you run into a problem with Hugepod and you live in the Western Hemisphere then you have to stay up till 12AM to get assistance. This can lead to problems especially when dealing with an angry customer who wants to know where their package is and you have to wait till late at night to get some answers (dealing with this as we speak). Ran outta characters lol.
