The Professional Internet Marketing Intern

I just looked at an offer that was too good to be true. Yeah, I know, I get that a lot, too.

This guy named Cody Moya was offering this membership site where you get Private Label Rights to thousands of products for $97 per month. That was a steal, but he also gave me a free month and 7 private label rights products, too. So I went a ahead and used the coupon code he sent me (how did I get on his list?).

I was bombarded with no less than 7 upsells and OTO’s and downsells before I was actually allowed to download my 7 free plr products. I am all for trying to make some money from giving away stuff, but this guy gives one time offers a bad name!

When I finally arrived at the download page, here was a list of 8 steps for downloading the 7 PLR products.

First step, was an affiliate link. Step two, an affiliate link – as were steps three, four, five, six and eight! Step seven was the only one that took me to the downloads. Then at the very bottom, under the 8 steps, is the link to access the Private Label Wholesaler account.

After downloading my 7 PLR products, I went to the Private Label Wholesaler (PLW) account, still expecting more offers, but instead, I actually arrived at my destination. I logged in to the account and arrived at a page that explained the rights that came with all the PLR from Private Label Wholesaler. Basically, the terms of the site state that you have Private Label, Master Reseller and Reseller Rights to all of the products in Private Label Wholesaler for as long as you are a paying member of PLW.

If you wish to continue selling these products, you must pay a reseller fee of $197 to keep selling them. I canceled my membership before I could read whether that was $197 for each product or $197 for all of the products I had downloaded. I understand the deal with keeping the value of the products, but when I can buy the same exact Private Label Products from my friend Stuart Halpryn at Netactivated for pennies on the dollar with never an extra fee, then I would be certifiably crazy with a touch of moronicism. I was freakin’ astounded that this guy is still in business (Moya), especially since that time a few years ago when he told his list (how did I get on that guy’s freakin’ list) that if they had already purchased a particular product from someone else, they should refund it and buy from him, since he was offering the biggest, baddest bonus to win this affiliate contest.

He may have changed his ways for affiliate marketing (since he has never told anyone to refund a product in order to buy from him since then), but his business model of charging $97 per month for a product depository where you can get the same products for $2.75 somewhere else is outlandish when you consider that you have to keep paying that $97 or take the product off your sales page.

If anything, you might want to download everything, then find the ones that sell by putting them on your website, then go buy the PLR rights from someone else selling the same product at a much more reasonable price and cancel your PLW membership. You do have 30 days, after all, and you won’t have a nightmare trying to remember which website had which product from PLW so that you can take them down…

Just my 2 cents worth!
