GBStay away! Received 50+ phone calls- none of them local to install alarm system in home. Finally quit answering after over half wanted my personal information and one even ran a hard request on my credit without any information given. Now contacting my attorney about this as he tells me this was illegal. There seems to be no way of cancleing this request so everyone beware of doing this unless you want to answer many scam calls and maybe lose your personal information. Much easer to look for people in your local area.

GBBUYERZONE SCAM BUYERZONE USED TO BE A LEGITIMATE WAY TO GET LEADS. HOWEVER AFTER IT WAS BOUGHT OUT, IT HAS BECOME A SCAM WHERE THE POOR BUYER GETS A HUNDRED CALLS FROM ALL OVER THE COUNTRY AND EVEN FROM INDIA. THE LAST LEAD WE RECEIVED BEFORE WE CANCELLED THEIR SERVICE TOLD US THAT THEY DID NOT REQUEST INFORMATION FROM BUYERZONE BUT SOMEONE HAD SOLICITED THEM FROM INDIA AND ASKED IF THEY WERE INTERESTED IN A PHONE SYSTEM. THEY SAID "NO WE'RE NOT" BUT AGREED TO GET AN EMAIL WITH INFORMATION FOR THE FUTURE. THEY WERE NOT A PROSPECT, WE GOT CHARGED $45 FOR THE "LEAD", AND THEY RECEIVED HUNDREDS OF CALLS. I WOULD TERM THIS A SCAM.

GBConfusing, ill conceived and even worse follow up I went to this site online thinking I could competitively shop for a new copier/scanner/fax for my office. Ha! The questions covered a range of most unlikely candidates in size (seriously, do companies with 1000+ employees go to a blind, online site to shop for copiers?) and then became even more vague...e.g., an option to indicate you want additional features, but no pull down box to either select those features or add the information. Sure enough, after about an hour, there was an impersonal email about how great offers would be coming my way shortly, but of course, none have. I have heard nothing from any of the vendors referenced in the form email. It just goes to show that shopping locally, with real people who both know the business and care about the consumer is how to handle such a purchase. Write this useless waste of time off of your "to do" list, and you will be glad you did.

GBI shared my contact info with buyerzone… I shared my contact info with buyerzone as was shopping for pricing estimates inundated with calls from so many different companies I simply wont go this direction now. Blocked them all and asked to never call back.

GBSo Many Phone Calls It really wasn't made clear that you'd be giving my phone number to multiple companies and they'd all be calling me! The whole reason I filled out the information was because it said you would be sending me quotes from different phone companies. Well, I didn't get any quotes, I just got about five or so phone calls from salespeople, which is exactly why I didn't just call companies directly in the first place, because I don't want to be hounded by salespeople. This was truly frustrating.
