Trigger stun gun
Buyer Beware! Absolute junk! I bought 2 of the ST "Trigger" stun guns. The wrist/pin strap randomly falls out rendering the unit inoperable. An obvious design flaw. I lost both straps within a week. I emailed ST. They want $5.00 for each strap plus about the same for S&H which brings the cost to about 50% of the cost of the unit. Overall quality is terrible for this Chinese junk. Ergonomics is terrible. Buy the competition and save yourself the greif.
Desired outcome: Replacement of straps

I believe this company, Safety Technology, is basically honest and sells good products. Before I became a distributor I bought several of their products over the years. However, having said that, I do not believe they do a good job offering a website with services for around $1, 000 with tech assistance is for anyone who is not good at web development. It gets pretty expensive and time-wasting to try to get it going. I bought in last summer and still have not been able to use it. If you want to sell their products on your own, then have at it, but DO IT ON YOUR OWN. No need to invest in their website unless you are very computer savvy. And don't contact the owner, Mike Gravette. He is anything but helpful or encouraging. He just plainly tells you maybe you should give it up. I have to say I'm afraid I'll have to give it up after spending quite a bit of money on it.. I regret the time I wasted as I really needed a way to make additional income and I regret wasting both my time and money. I am very disappointed with this company, and with Mr. Gravette's attitude, I feel pretty stupid and do not feel comfortable dealing with them.
We can't address the specifics of this complaint because it is anonymous. Starting a business is not for everyone. Also, when you say "still have not been able to use it, " that is very vague. The websites we build for people are Wordpress sites and very easy to use and edit. Instructions are given, including video tutorials. We have a help ticket system and phone help if anyone needs it. We also give a very generous 60 day guarantee where we will refund every penny someone pays for the website if they decide that this business is not for them.
The only time Michael Gravette would tell someone that they should give it up is during that 60 day period when they would get their money back. Unfortunately, there are too many people that put a website up and believe that sales will just start poring in. They don't want to do the work.

I drive a Porsche, Nancy drives a Mercedes, both paid for with cash. I invest in real estate and the stock market in my spare time.
AND, I really want YOU to find your way to the good life, too, NOW, not later, and I have THE products that can get you there!
STAY AWAY THIS GUY (MADOFF TYPE)
The complaint has been investigated and resolved to the customer’s satisfaction.
As I was getting on the train, the doors closed on me and I had to pull out my leg as the doors wouldn't release by themselves!
Unreliable service. Frequently does not ship out within their stated shipping times and orders go out late. More than any other supplier I have used.
I've been selling products from Safety Technology since 2004. One time in a decade have I had a customer complain about a product. I called ST, told them what happened and they shipped the replacement that day. I did not buy a website from them because I've been building websites since "Al Gore invented the Internet." But I do sell their products through my website and - for the small amount of time and ZERO advertising budget I've put into my hobby/business I've made a nice little bit of money. If you want it to be your living, you're going to have to work it a lot harder than I do, buy some adwords, use social media to market, etc. You can get out of this what you put into it. Once piece of advice: Know the products! People are going to ask questions and you need to be knowledgable. If they ask how a pepper spray or a TASER works and you don't know or sound unsure, you've lost the sale. This is not some "buy a website, turn it on, go to the mailbox and get your check" scam. You selling people products that give them peace of mind and the ability to protect themselves from criminals. That's a great gig AND a mission.

I agree. Friend went for this work from home be a distributor well $800 to start, design web page then $30/month to maintain. What a joke. Friend is not computer savvy so I tired to help. No programmer here but have been working on computers and have updated company websites in the past. The set up here is you get multiple pages of info that lead you to multiple .coms. Then from there you get spun around in circles never really getting anywhere. This Cpanel that they use is not for the average computer user at all. Stay away from this you can sell on line like me scam. It is a joke and after working and helping my friend for a week trying to access his web-site, get it current and updated which were not able to do. He is throwing in the towel. No sense in paying $30/month for a website you can't access or that is so cumbersome you need a programmer sitting next to you. Don't walk away...RUN!
I have just placed my first order with this company, a drop ship order sold on Ebay. I was shocked to see the shipping charge for this one small item. I actually LOST money on this sale. "The only place I saw any shipping charges disclosed was on the order form that came with the wholesale kit. And it was lower than what was actually charged.

Does it really matter if Mike Gravette has a Porshe or not or his wife has a Mercedes? He certainly has made enough money over the years to afford one. If he wants to say he has one in his advertisement who cares? I get my products from this company and have had no problems with them. They ship fast and package items with care. I am greatful for this company as it has allowed me to make extra money over the summer especially at the flea market. It is a good opportunity. And a lot of women will buy the pepper sprays. You order the products get them and then sell them. Anyone willing to put the time and effort forth can do this. Think about it YOU GET THE PRODUCTS and then sell them. You have control of your earnings. It's not like waiting for a check from a company. Everyone has their own quirks. Overall the guy has done great in his business development. And this has helped people have a way to make money. I appreciate the opportunity to buy these products from your company Mike and thank you for serving our country in the armed forces. I look forward to doing more business with this company.
Been buying from Safety Technology for over 7 years. I use several dropshippers because I sell other products that Safety Technology doesn't carry. Safety Technology is far and away the best dropshipper I deal with.
Not a scam but have not been too impressed with service and attitude of one employee. They also say ebay and other sites is a good way to market their products, but have been in trouble a couple of times with ebay because two products I listed were infringing on trademarks. They should tell you not to list these items. They should not be selling these items. Trademark infringement violations stay on your ebay account for a year and a seller could eventually be suspended. My policy compliance is at "low" right now on ebay because of these two violations. I think my traffic and sales are beginning to suffer because of it. Sellers with a low or very low policy violation rating on ebay could have their listings show up lower in search results.
I haven't done much business with Safety Technology, but I've never had a problem with them. The one larger order I placed they even went out of their way to help make sure it got filled on time.
I am a distributor with this company- have been for over a year.
They are efficient, and fast to respond to questions and issues. They explain all fees very clearly.
Sorry, not agreeing with you as I have no evidence that backs up how they are trying to scam anyone.

We are sorry about your experience with the Trigger stun gun. This happens to be one of our most popular stun gun. You obviously are in favor of the "competition" even though you do not specify who the competition is. The fact is that we only charge $5.00 for replacing the straps and that is to pay for shipping. So, if you did order 2 replacement straps you would have been charged $5.00 total including the shipping.
I also verified that you have never purchased from us. At least not under the name Jim Galas.
