Front company for China shipments. My experience with Newgistics. There is strong evidence that this is yet another front company for shipments coming from China. The following is how these places function and why it takes forever to receive your shipment:
First, you place an order through a seller on Amazon or another source, the seller is reality a drop shipper that resells products from China, but to hide this they have a business address in the United States or Europe. The seller immediately has a shipping label created with Newgistics or another secondary shipping company (this is the front company that helps them hide where the product is actually coming from). Newgistics can even shop your product is in transit, but in reality, they don't even have your product, since your product hasn't even left China. In extreme cases this allows the China drop shipper and the shipping company to sit on your order for weeks to months earning interest on your money before the purchase is even made with the China manufacture, in the meantime, it locks up your money with them and allows them to place larger bulk purchases with the Chinese manufacture (pretty ingenious). They reassure you that your product has shipped, and reassure Amazon they same thing by providing the secondary shipping companies shipper information with tracking information, which is only partly legitimate and allows them to circumvent the laws in most cases. To help cover things up, they hire people to create false reviews on Amazon, Yelp, and other locations (who don't know any better) to try and coverup their dishonest and unethical business practices. These types of organizations often don't have whistleblowers, since to be employed with many of the unethical organizations the company has their employees sign a contract, that in the fine print it requires all of the employees only speak positively of the company or else they are in violation of their working agreement and can be fired or sued. If you found this information helpful, please pass it on to others.
