I believe Donna (commenter above) is a shill for the company. As for believing the above image is true... Sheesh, that's a pic of ME in front of my computer. I guess I should know whether it's me or not. If you meant that you don't believe it was posted on the DVDDropShip site as part of a fake testimonial, then check out the <a href="http://web.archive.org/web/20060525071808/http://www.dvddropship.com/testimonials-i-35.html" target="new" rel="nofollow">web archives</a>.

No issues using them at all. How do we all know the above image is true anyway, I don't think you can believe anything on the internet as gospel.

Hi Anthony,

Aren’t you the sweet one? You’ll notice that they haven’t removed Preston’s picture at the top though.

I guess they figure that they’ll only respond to items that they are officially ‘caught out’ on.

To their detriment to be sure… I think this calls for another blog post.

Cheers,
Rosalind

It seems this website has a weird thing for submitting pictures of other internet marketers. Take a look at their testimonial page today - the guy at the top - supposedly named "John Goule" and the lady at the bottom "Jenny Penninson" are both successful internet marketers. The man on the top is really named Preston and he owns a website that shows people how to make and sell wire jewelry. And the lady at the bottom - her real name is Barbara and she has a home decorating website. AND if I am correct - both of these people have their own little section on the Secrets To Their Success website! The reason I know this is because I read about both of them in a product I own created by the late Corey Rudl. Who's picture will be up next? Corey Rudl himself?? <em><strong>Sure... messages from above! Or maybe even George Bush will decide to send them a testimonial... using an alias of course!</strong></em> Hi Rosalind,

Hello Judy,

Thank you so much for your kind words!

I think honesty and integrity should be the basis for everything we do in business and life in general. With those at the core, success is more rewarding, failures are fewer and easier to cope with, and best of all, one can sleep at night. :-)

Cheers,
Ros
