I just wanted to give this channel a public acknowledgment for what you have done and for what you are doing. I know not all people here are supporters of mine and I respect that but it does not detract from what you are doing. This is the beginning of a tremendous victory for this whole community. I think your efforts are going to result in many lasting changes in this industry. What has been done is not right and should be corrected going forward and looking backwards.
I don't think you have to apologize Kevin. How many of us thought to measure the freaking bubble wrap! I know you wouldn't ever mislead your viewers on purpose.
Back in 2019.. "I've been ripped off and blocked by a seller that actually abused the free returns. Their ID is "Supplyhut" You order 700ft of bubble wrap. They send you 500. You tell them they shorted you. You even show a video measuring it. They tell you to send it back. They get it back and claim you didn't ship it all back. They refund you 50%. You open a claim and get denied. You leave negative feedback and its removed. Ebay has been allowing this bad behavior for years."
When you do the next video you should also check the local box stores also. Lowes, Home Depot, Walmart, Sam’s. Sam’s is my go to when I run out unexpectedly and I imagine lots of people rely of them for their supplies.
I'm sorry to be a total spaz and comment so much but... YOU ARE A HERO!!!!! What a perfect thing to ask of them... "Send the proper order with the correct length so I can show my viewers"... PERFECT! You are brilliant. And returning the bubblewrap... Excellent!!!
Currently, SupplyHuts ebay listing says "3/16" SH Small Bubble Cushioning Wrap Padding Roll 400'x 12" Wide Perf 12" 400FT" but further down it says "Length 700 ft"
Thank you for taking this step of double-checking order amounts of bubble wrap. It helps tremendously especially for us smaller sellers(every penny counts). The world of business rarely has anything to do with honesty these days(especially on the corporate level); small business owners are held accountable(rightly so) but the larger the business the more the graft and corruption(lies). I appreciate your time and effort to shed light on this.
@@nikkiflippy007 i see you all have no idea how a class action works and ever even if theres a pay out ...in short it could be years and years and years 10-15 even 20yrs and then ur winning payout could be a whole one dollar [this is a example]
I'm struggling like hail just to keep my head above water only to find out Supply Hut has been ripping me off...I'm done with them, not another damn penny...Very Sickening...
Good Follow up! - After watching your first video I contacted Supply Hut messaging about my 2 orders of 700 feet on Memorial Day May 29. They quickly responded asking how much I was shorted. I told them 600 feet total from the two orders. They then asked my Paypal account and then refunded me $34.52 for the missing wrap at 6:52 PM Central Time on Memorial day. This amount is a fair refund. And they did this after normal work hours on a National Holiday. In my case it seems Supply Hut owned up to their mistake and made fast resolutions.
I am totally in love with you for doing this!!!!!!! Also, this is literally the most exciting video I've seen in months... I might have a problem. LOL. 😂 Seriously though... We all need to start measuring our bubblewrap and do "item not as described" as a movement!!! I'm measuring mine from now on anyway. Also, when half the roll is popped... rrrrrrrrrr. Thanks for doing this. Clearly I'm very excited. Sorry. LOL.
Thought, if you don't have room, or a place to measure like he did. Tear 5 or 10 squares off at a time. Count how many layers you have, and do the math from there.
Yes Bubble Boy was close. BUT still off and that can add up for people that spend a lot there. And you don't know the damage of people who lost their ebay store because of financial stress and that little bit of lose in shipping wrap would of been a nail in the coffin ⚰️ Understand these companies have laser sharp technology to cut down to micro and every inch they lie about adds up to BIG profit to them. Yes he was nice on phone he got caught! And I bet you won't be short again because he knows he can be accurate next time seeing all the heat on them. It's so sad to all those affected by this not even knowing they were screwed 😞 But BIG shout out to you for exposing it and helping save ebay sellers. Even when others are competing against you. You still took time to help them out!!! You are definitely a business I would deal with. You made us proud
Yeah Boycott Supply Hut. Thats some real bullshit because we have ordered from them for some years now and have spent over 445$ I just added up on bubble wrap for our family who is all resellers. Not happy and going to try to chargeback this stuff we have left at least and NEVER EVER USE these assholes again. Thanks for the video. Wow I was wondering it seemed short I just thought someone "borrowed some" nope got screwed and now the proof is here. I saw Commonwealths video as well and he is not happy. Shorted on paper come on Supply Hut just another Scammer taking advantage of some of us that make an honest living.
@@liveandletlive9333 it tells me that they knew what they were doing originally, considering they still want the same amount of money for a lot less bubble wrap.
A few years ago, I ordered 8x6x4 boxes from supplyhut on multiple occasions. The boxes were flimsy but cheap and good for what I needed. My last order, the tracking was uploaded the very next day. 2 weeks later, there was no tracking updates, no picked up, dropped off, nothing. I reached out to them and after a few back and forths they finally issued me a refund. No lie, 2 months later, I received my original 8x6x4 boxes. They definitely have some shady stuff going on. I stopped ordering from them a few years back.
Well done, I appreciate the fact that you are doing something based on the principles of honesty in a fair market system. This has no place when it comes to online sales, especially on platforms like eBay, where individual sellers are being robbed of their money. A HUZZAH for FJ Treasures!
Good job! It’s pretty shady how some of these suppliers take advantage of the honor system knowing it is not practical for most consumers to verify they received what was advertised. Now we can see they can offer the lowest prices by essentially stealing from the customers.
Have you ever checked the weight before rolling out? In comparison with a roll that has the correct length, you can quickly find out whether the delivered roll has the ordered length. Greetings from Germany.
Can I make a suggestion of supplying the dimensions of the rolls, the circumference and diameter’s so that people know whether or not they’re being shorted on certain rolls we all seem to know what the 200 rose look like but the actual dimensions would help us just by quickly measuring to see if we’re actually being shorted or not
Amazing work here! Crazy how many RUclipsrs push supply hut on their viewers that don’t know any better just to make a buck...costing them lots of money and heartache. Profit over morals and ethics sadly. Don’t blindly follow advice from anyone is the moral of this story. Supply Hut has always been garbage IMO. Thanks again F&J!
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for doing this! So many people have probably been getting ripped off for years. AMERICA BUBBLE BOY! If you are reading this, congrats and doing the right thing and having business ethics.
I had already had issues in the past with Supply Hut in regards to wrong sized bubble mailers being sent and they didn't seem interested or care about making it right so I quit dealing with them.
My question is how long has this been going on? Thank God I buy my bubble wrap from Sam's club I just did the same measurements and I get exactly what I pay for and whats posted on the scotch brand boxes from Sam's club!
Supply hut knows what they are doing. I think they are just doing the same as the competition. They all just trying to list the lowest price. In their defense, i do order small boxes from them 7x5x3, the walls are so thin lol which makes them lightweight.
Thanks for exposing what has probably been going on for years no one really has even thought about even doing a check on shipping supplies especially bubble wrap from now on when I order anything like this I will take an random order and check length plus has anyone counted out poly bags I use a lot of those I order hundreds yearly so might be something to look into as well
Very..Very interesting about the Bubble Wrap Shortage across the big suppliers. I won't buy from either of those suppliers until I here they fixed there problem.
Boycott Supply Hut. Purchase From American Bubble Boy. I did today!👍 Thank You for spending the time doing all this. You are helping us all. Ever thought about creating a consumer RUclips site where you do testing on items and creating videos on the results and outcome! OUTSTANDING VIDEO & FOLLOW UP.
Yea the owner had no idea right. It was probably some rouge employee that decided to short the rolls. We as consumers put up with this very thing with every product we buy in the grocery store. All of the sudden my box of Cheez-it’s are 15% smaller but have gone up in price .50 cents. Or there’s 5 less pieces of chicken in Campbells chicken noodle soup and on and on. Imagine this going on at the gas station when we think we’re getting 10 gallons of gas when we’re really getting 8. Money is the one and only thing that matters to any business owner in the end.
Good job. Subscibed. Just dropped Golden State Picker because he tried to sell me a course after I left an unrelated comment. Nice to add you in his place.
I ordered 700 ft from Maro on 5/8 that was delivered on 5/17. it is 4 rolls still sealed in the bag they sent it to me in. Let me know if you want measurements or pictures from that and we'll see if what you get is what I got 2 weeks ago!
They indeed did fund a portion of my shed. 1/3 to be exact. However in the light of the first video I have been working very hard to contribute to the effort not only to change this behavior but to make the past behavior right as well and before people ask the answer is yes including money from supply hut to me as well. That is indeed a part of this effort. As I said on my show know amount of money is worth cheating people out of the product they deserve to get and the service they deserve as well. I hope that people will begin to see more real change very soon across this whole industry and I am feeling more and more every day that is actually happening because people are now seeing the reality of what is going on.
@@commonwealthflipper Thanks for the reply. This could happen to any company that isn’t directly manufacturing their product. Hopefully this is a wake up call for the whole industry on the importance of quality assurance.
I returned bubble wrap to Fresh Farm where I had received only about 62%. A part of me felt it was kind of a "jerk move" to make them pay for shipping and do the return. But then I realized that they had shorted me and they were taking business away from honorable competitors who had to compete with their dishonesty. So it had to be done! I returned them and had to push but finally got my money refunded.
@@FJTreasures That's right. We get up your way a few times here and there. We're actually heading to rthr finger lakes this weekend. Garage sales here are very plentiful.
I didn't see this mentioned yet in the comments, on the invoice, the cost of 500' is $35.75, I would think that 1000' would be twice the cost of the 500' roll ($71.50) or maybe even cheaper, but the invoice showed $134.25 which is about 3.7 times as much as 500'.
I've not purchased bubble from anyone other than American Bubble Boy and have been very happy with their product. I have, however, purchased boxes from Supply Hut on recommendation of a top RUclipsr (you know who it is.) I had quality issues with the small boxes. They were not glued properly, not attached to the box tab, but attached to the interior of the box. Renders them useless. I did contact them and basically was told there was nothing they can do. I have been debating whether or not I want to give them a second chance or just pay a little more with a different box supplier. How about doing a video comparing box quality, not only how they area assembled, but if the cardboard weight is what they say it is.
Same situation for me. I've only ordered boxes using Commonwealth discount code, and I do appreciate the low weight of the boxes, they are definitely lacking in quality. I'd keep using them though, if they weren't severely shorting their customers on bubble wrap. Uncool 👎
Thanks for the information. Great Video. I ordered a roll of bubble wrap a couple of weeks ago from Uline (3/16 in x 12 in x 300 ft). They ship out of the Los Angeles area. We have been ordering from them for 2 years now. Always the same order. When we unrolled and measured the most recent roll we received, it was over 300 ft. About 312 ft. to be exact. FYI for everyone out there.
I watched your one yesterday and this is crazy. I mainly selling clothes on ebay so I dont have to deal with this thank god. Maybe I should start counting my poly mailers and labels?!?!
Bought some bubble wrap from them, did the weight test and found I was shorted about 20%. This was about 4.5 years ago so they've been doing this for a while.
While some companies are more at fault for theft, it was troublesome for me to hear that Joel is the most knowledgeable person on the planet about bubble wrap, yet your rolls from American Bubble Boy roll were still short. This is uncalled for. I thought it was interesting reading the comments from your last video U-line over delivered on the declared feet sold. Maybe you, Commonwealth Flipper, and Shed Flips should find a company that will over deliver and serve their customers. We trust y’all and will gladly buy from a reputable bubble wrap seller. Maybe reach out to U-line to start, they have delivery infrastructure in place. Can’t thank you enough for blowing the whistle on this!
I dropped your Lonnie "Great Hair" comment in today's video! You just know people years from now will be doing this because of you! Lol Great video get'em Frank the Tank!
Any update from charlie? I stopped buying from supply hut about 2 years ago because their quality had went down on bubble mailers and they did not reply to messages.
Omg your in NY State? When I made my comment last video it’s cause I’m in queens with small yards, I thought based on the land your somewhere in the Midwest or the south.
What about posting the weights of the rolls, like how much does 175 feet of 3/16" small bubble weigh? From previous rolls I got anywhere from just over 1 pound to just over 2# each with my recent order. They each had the cardboard inset..
I thought I was the only one crazy enough to unroll a roll of bubble wrap, but I noticed over the years that the rolls were getting smaller. I unrolled one and it was 30' short. I contacted them and they sent me another one. I believe it was "Duck Bubble Wrap" was the name of the company, but I think they all do it.
I wish there was an easier way to measure how much you received without unrolling it. I just received my ABB order and hope I was not shorted. This was a long overdue topic to be discussed and clarified. Thanks a million!
I bet someone who's really good at math could figure out a good way to estimate it based on diameter and number of layers in the roll. That's a hard math problem, though.
Sounds like a class action lawsuit to me. Again, it would be interesting to see if ULINE sends the prper amount since they are a big name large nationwide company that sells to industry (more than just bubble warp).
Sadly, nothing new. This "popzi" scheme has been going on for years. After 3 strikes, I quit ordering any shipping supplies besides boxes from nearly all the ebay vendors. After filing INADs, 2 x the adjustment was made in a pro-rated refund or once with the seller sending the additional product to make up the difference, as they never requested a return. Same goes for cubic feet of packing peanuts - perhaps an expose on them is in order, next.
Is supply hut drop shipping the orders? Seems like there is some kind of scheme where a buyer orders 700 ft but they sent not even half of that order. Supply Hut orders 200 ft from another seller and has it shipped to customer. Is that even possible or does Supply Hut manufacture these products?
What about bubble wrap from Uline? I bought bubble boy, but their quality wasn't as good as reviews said it was. Had better bubble wrap. All the bubbles were flat at and sourrounding the perforation lines, and gets real bad at the end of the roll. I don't know if I just got a bad batch or not.

Good to know, thanks.
and the winner of best reselling youtube video for 2023....... THIS!
Possible class action lawsuit.
They changed the measurement but not the price UNBELIEVABLE!!!!😡
Shed Flips informed me of your channel. Great job holding these companies accountable for their shortcomings!!
Hey its Roy from RK Treasure Center and this follow up vid and your original vid about the bubblewap....hands down 5 Thumbs up! 👍👍👍👍👍
I guess they didn't think anyone would bother measuring. Oh and found your channel via Shed flips. Now I am binge watching yall's videos .
Commonwealth had a video on your original video and it was through him we found you. Great video glad to have found your channel.
The resellers that promote these companies should think again
When you do the next video you should also check the local box stores also. Lowes, Home Depot, Walmart, Sam’s. Sam’s is my go to when I run out unexpectedly and I imagine lots of people rely of them for their supplies.
I'm sorry to be a total spaz and comment so much but... YOU ARE A HERO!!!!! What a perfect thing to ask of them... "Send the proper order with the correct length so I can show my viewers"... PERFECT! You are brilliant. And returning the bubblewrap... Excellent!!!

Thank you for shedding light on these fraudulent companies!
Thanks for the update on bubble gate 😊
Came here by way of Commonwealth Picker. Thanks for all the work and information.
There’s only one thing to do. Boycott supply hut.
wasn’t just supply hut was almost every company
I've already been boycotting supplyhut for years. I got shorted like 30% on my packing peanuts orders and bubble wrap orders.
Thank you for taking this step of double-checking order amounts of bubble wrap. It helps tremendously especially for us smaller sellers(every penny counts). The world of business rarely has anything to do with honesty these days(especially on the corporate level); small business owners are held accountable(rightly so) but the larger the business the more the graft and corruption(lies). I appreciate your time and effort to shed light on this.
Someone could start a class action lawsuit about this. They would have to compensate every customer who has bought bubble wrap from them.
I've actually talked to someone that spoke to an attorney about a class action. Charlie better do some damage control, fast.
@@nikkiflippy007 i see you all have no idea how a class action works and ever even if theres a pay out ...in short it could be years and years and years 10-15 even 20yrs and then ur winning payout could be a whole one dollar [this is a example]

They have been shorting people for months as evidenced by their feedback.
Yet, they continued selling the same rolls knowing they were short!

@@FJTreasures That's right. We get up your way a few times here and there. We're actually heading to rthr finger lakes this weekend. Garage sales here are very plentiful.
I didn't see this mentioned yet in the comments, on the invoice, the cost of 500' is $35.75, I would think that 1000' would be twice the cost of the 500' roll ($71.50) or maybe even cheaper, but the invoice showed $134.25 which is about 3.7 times as much as 500'.
I've not purchased bubble from anyone other than American Bubble Boy and have been very happy with their product. I have, however, purchased boxes from Supply Hut on recommendation of a top RUclipsr (you know who it is.) I had quality issues with the small boxes. They were not glued properly, not attached to the box tab, but attached to the interior of the box. Renders them useless. I did contact them and basically was told there was nothing they can do. I have been debating whether or not I want to give them a second chance or just pay a little more with a different box supplier.
How about doing a video comparing box quality, not only how they area assembled, but if the cardboard weight is what they say it is.
I have also purchased 4x4x4 boxes from SupplyHut and they are crude. Quality control is not a priority I guess.
I tend to get most of my boxes through the boxery with larger box is coming from Walmart, home Depot, and Lowe's
Same situation for me. I've only ordered boxes using Commonwealth discount code, and I do appreciate the low weight of the boxes, they are definitely lacking in quality. I'd keep using them though, if they weren't severely shorting their customers on bubble wrap. Uncool 👎
I had issues with their smaller boxes as well. They didn't fold properly, so the boxes were wonky when I put them together.
You can mention my name I truly do not mind. I have not hid from this nor do I intend to. I intend to see it through the best way I know how.
Thanks for the information. Great Video. I ordered a roll of bubble wrap a couple of weeks ago from Uline (3/16 in x 12 in x 300 ft). They ship out of the Los Angeles area. We have been ordering from them for 2 years now. Always the same order. When we unrolled and measured the most recent roll we received, it was over 300 ft. About 312 ft. to be exact. FYI for everyone out there.
Thanks for the update!
I watched your one yesterday and this is crazy. I mainly selling clothes on ebay so I dont have to deal with this thank god. Maybe I should start counting my poly mailers and labels?!?!
Bought some bubble wrap from them, did the weight test and found I was shorted about 20%. This was about 4.5 years ago so they've been doing this for a while.
Next video... PACKING TAPE!!! 😂
What about Office Max?
Congratulations on getting an eCommerce Bytes story!
While some companies are more at fault for theft, it was troublesome for me to hear that Joel is the most knowledgeable person on the planet about bubble wrap, yet your rolls from American Bubble Boy roll were still short. This is uncalled for.
I thought it was interesting reading the comments from your last video U-line over delivered on the declared feet sold.
Maybe you, Commonwealth Flipper, and Shed Flips should find a company that will over deliver and serve their customers. We trust y’all and will gladly buy from a reputable bubble wrap seller. Maybe reach out to U-line to start, they have delivery infrastructure in place.
Can’t thank you enough for blowing the whistle on this!
Always wondered if i was getting shorted Now we know Thanks will go with Bubble boy In next order! Also a Shed Flips fan
Great Video...appreciate all your hard work... Man those figures were mind-blowing, right? Love to your wife & Little Frankie (That's my son's name)!
If this goes viral, the amount of INAD are going to be out of this world! It could do some serious revenue damage.
I ordered boxes from Supply Hut once, years ago. They shorted me on the number of boxes. I will never buy from them again.
I dropped your Lonnie "Great Hair" comment in today's video! You just know people years from now will be doing this because of you! Lol
Great video get'em Frank the Tank!
Any update from charlie?
I stopped buying from supply hut about 2 years ago because their quality had went down on bubble mailers and they did not reply to messages.
Omg your in NY State? When I made my comment last video it’s cause I’m in queens with small yards, I thought based on the land your somewhere in the Midwest or the south.
What about posting the weights of the rolls, like how much does 175 feet of 3/16" small bubble weigh? From previous rolls I got anywhere from just over 1 pound to just over 2# each with my recent order. They each had the cardboard inset..
I thought I was the only one crazy enough to unroll a roll of bubble wrap, but I noticed over the years that the rolls were getting smaller. I unrolled one and it was 30' short. I contacted them and they sent me another one. I believe it was "Duck Bubble Wrap" was the name of the company, but I think they all do it.
I wish there was an easier way to measure how much you received without unrolling it. I just received my ABB order and hope I was not shorted. This was a long overdue topic to be discussed and clarified. Thanks a million!
I bet someone who's really good at math could figure out a good way to estimate it based on diameter and number of layers in the roll. That's a hard math problem, though.
Did they give you a First Class return label lol? The box has to weigh a couple pounds alone.
They DID! I was wondering if someone would catch that! I was going to point that out in the video but I wanted to see who would catch it.
@@FJTreasures That's always a sign of a vendor that cuts corners. When I see stuff like that it's a red flag.
Sounds like a class action lawsuit to me. Again, it would be interesting to see if ULINE sends the prper amount since they are a big name large nationwide company that sells to industry (more than just bubble warp).
thanks for all your work!!!!
Sadly, nothing new. This "popzi" scheme has been going on for years. After 3 strikes, I quit ordering any shipping supplies besides boxes from nearly all the ebay vendors. After filing INADs, 2 x the adjustment was made in a pro-rated refund or once with the seller sending the additional product to make up the difference, as they never requested a return. Same goes for cubic feet of packing peanuts - perhaps an expose on them is in order, next.
How about tape and packing paper?
Thanks ..
Is supply hut drop shipping the orders? Seems like there is some kind of scheme where a buyer orders 700 ft but they sent not even half of that order. Supply Hut orders 200 ft from another seller and has it shipped to customer. Is that even possible or does Supply Hut manufacture these products?
What about bubble wrap from Uline?
I bought bubble boy, but their quality wasn't as good as reviews said it was. Had better bubble wrap. All the bubbles were flat at and sourrounding the perforation lines, and gets real bad at the end of the roll. I don't know if I just got a bad batch or not.
It says a loy about you that you 1) didnt want to return the bubble wrap messy and 2) didnt want to rub salt in the wound. You're a stand-up guy.
I think you forgot to bubble wrap the bubble wrap that you are returning.😂
The more youtubers push and gawk gawk a product the less I trust it. This case proves it.
Exactly! That's why I always ignored Kevin's recommendation!
