Good company
I have had an account with ABC Distributing well over 10 years now. Only once I did not receive an order that was sent via mail, and when I called and let them know, they took my word for it and reshipped it. A few times, incorrect item was sent, and I was sent the correct item without any hassle. The incorrect item was either picked up via UPS, or I was told to keep.
As for orders shipped together, MOST times, my orders are shipped together. Sometimes they are not. I believe I am only charged the actual shipping charge, which I am pleased. (unlike PCH) I am provided tracking numbers and I can pay online.
As far as the person who was upset about having to pay in advance? I wonder how many times this company has been ripped off before they learned to limit first time buyers? I have seen with my own eyes, a co worker order at least $400. from ABC, and some from other companies and did not pay any of them. I don't think she ever intended too.
Do you blame them? I would do the same. As I mentioned before, this company does large volumes. If an order was placed and there was a hold up, and say a week later, the order was reprocessed, I can understand why items were not in stock anymore. ABC can't be expected to hold items back waiting on someone to pay up, how many items would they have to hold back and not sell if they practiced this? They also will put an account on hold for non payment, the orders taken "out of line, and put back in once payment is made", and yes, one can lose out on an item they wanted. Pay on time, and this won't happen. (yes, I learned this the hard way) and lastly, Christmas orders, place them early, they do take longer to get. You are offered faster shipping when order is placed if you prefer. In December, I would recommend it. I am sorry to hear others so disappointed. I recommend people to be
practical minded and realistic with this or any other company and you'll have a lot less ulcers.

Rip off artists
I have been dealing with abc distributing for years. Their company rips people off. I can tell you at least half a dozen stories of people who were ripped off by them but here is my story. My roommate told me about abc. We decided to place a large order for some t-shirts and resell them online and in our weekend vendor store. We placed an order of 100 dollars worth of biker, sports and men’s t-shirts. They were all under 9 bucks each and some shirts were 3 dollars each on clearance. What a great deal because we were going to resell them for about 10 bucks each. We placed the order and I started to receive the items, only ABC decided to ship one to two shirts at a time! It took them 4 months to ship all the shirts!! Each with a shipping charge of at least 8 dollars or more. When all was said and done the shipping charges on all the items were over 200 dollars!! My co-owner and I decided to pay the invoice for the shirts but only to pay shipping charges on ONE shipment, because the items could have easily been shipped in one big box. I contacted their consumer number, a toll call. I was on hold for 30 mins before someone picked up, hardly spoke English and told me that a mgr, would have to call me back. I started to receive demands for payment and they blew up my phone with their pre-recorded messages demanding payment. Never did I receive a call about the shipping charges. Finally, I called again, the lady I spoke to said they have no control over shipments and they ship things as they see fit. Well, I refused to send the payment for the excess shipping. They continued to call and demand payment. Now, this is where it gets crazy, about 5 months after all of this was said and done, we started to get more orders from them for the same items we ordered before! We did NOT place another order, but they started sending the same t-shirts, same order again and again. I called the company but they left me with an answering machine. I left many many messages and no one called us back. Three WEEKS later, we started to receive MORE shirts, the same order kept being sent to us like a Groundhog Day movie!
I tried again to call these idiots and let them know and they never called back. So after all this time we received THREE of the same orders back to back. I want to return these items but I will be damned if I pay to ship them back. It is their mistake. To this day the items sit waiting for someone to call me back and tell me what to do with all this crap they sent again and again. The only calls I receive are from their collections dept who claim they have no idea about the extra orders or shipping charges. Do NOT order from this company, they are not only rip off artist but they are crazy!

Scam charges!
In May of 2007 I placed an order with ABC DISTRIBUTING and payed the full amount. After about a month after items were shipped out to me I had yet received anything so I decided to contact the company only to find out that they were sent to wrong address. At this time I was told that I had to fill out some paperwork and send it back in and then my refund of about $90 would be returned to me. Now, according to the company my refund check was mailed out the second week of November 2007, 6 months after my initial order was placed.
By the second week of December I still had received nothing so I contacted the company only to find out that once again an apt. number had been left out and the check had been returned so on December 19th a second check was sent out with the RIGHT address. January 2008 still no check. I called them again and they can't seem to understand why I didn't receive the check but what I find hilarious is that their catalog comes on time every time with no problem.
Now its mid February and I am so frustrated.
