Jillian Entertainment Scam or Not?

Jillian Entertainment Scam? While reviewing our website stats, I discovered that some people are finding this site searching for information on Jillian Entertainment. What absolutely floors me is that some may actually believe that Jillian Entertainment is a scam, but then there is a lot of rumor and innuendo the worst of which is spread by jealous competitors. If you are trying to figure out whether or not this is a legitimate wholesale dvd directory, you are right to seek news and reports of this company.
A quick Google search comes up clean, and I am hard pressed to see how the Jillian Entertainment wholesale DVD directory could possibly be a scam. I am so impressed with the list that I take the time to offer it as an affiliate.
Listen, I own the list. Brent Crouch, the owner of Jillian Entertainment and longtime eBay DVD seller, has put together a vast list of resources. He gives up the names and contact information for the big three DVD wholesale distributors in the United States as well as many other sources for DVDs in many niche areas. Anyone who is selling DVDs professionally will be dealing with one or more of the sources listed in the directory and/or acquiring DVDs in one or more of the ways discussed in the material he makes available with the directory. I honestly don’t see how this could be a scam.
I must point out, however, that the Jillian DVD directory is only a list. A great list, but only a list. It in itself can’t do anything for you. You won’t get rich overnight with the list. You still have to set up accounts with the wholesalers, make your contacts, put your goods up for sale, and do the business of selling the DVDs. And if you are planning to do this on eBay, good luck–you can do it, but everyone and their dog is busy selling DVDs on eBay. Anyway, my point is that the work of turning a profit is up to you. But, the Jillian list, in my opinion, will give you all the major DVD sources.
If you have questions, leave a comment or feel free to contact me.

As I own Brent’s list, I can personally vouch that the list reveals numerous sources of true wholesale suppliers for DVDs. However, as I often point out in the articles and posts on this site, wholesale DVDs for new release movies and box office hits are expensive, certainly more than one or two dollars. Walmart can sell new DVDs at below wholesale prices because they can afford to take the loss. In fact, as I point out else where, Walmart prices give you a fairly close approximation of the wholesale price for many DVDs. None of this invalidates the Jillian Entertainment list. If you want a very complete listing of legitimate sources of DVDs, then this list delivers.
The lists are for true dvds but they are by no means wholesale. You can go to wal mart and buy them cheaper. Brent is making his money selling information, not dvds. You’ll be wasting time and money buying this list. There’s no way you can make a profit from any of these dvds. They cost more than you can sell them for on ebay. Don’t fall for this.
Yes, there are many scams. Fortunately, the Jillian Entertainment guide to not one of them. As I own this guide–bought it a number of years ago–I can attest that it is the real thing. If you are after sources for DVD movies and CDs, this is it.
Hi Jimmy,
Thank you for your questions. I personally think that the Jillian guide is great. I bought it myself a few years ago and personally have never seen anything better. To the best of my knowledge, all sources are legitimate. I’m talking about major corporations and studio providers. However, I would contact Jillian Entertainment to answer your question about DVD regions. I am U.S. based, myself and do not target Australia, though you’ve given me a good idea. The suppliers listed would be able to handle boxed sets. Very sorry to hear that you were banned from eBay. Remember, eBay is not the only place to sell. Take care and best of luck.
Just a final question does jillian guide also tells you where to get authentic dvd boxset, i was selling a dvd boxset for 3 months before i was banned from ebay for selling copy dvd from china.
Hi so Jillian entertainment guide is the best so far right, i just have one question , would i be able to sell the dvd on ebay australia? what region is the dvd?
Thank you so much .
John,
Hi. Thank you for the phone call! Sorry I missed you. I returned your call about about 8:22 cst but connected to a fax tone.
Although I would love to have you as a customer, you may have me confused with someone else. I am not offering a wholesale book through this site at this time. I plan on offering software to help keep track of wholesale accounts and products, but that is down the road a bit.
If you want the names and contact information for the 3 major wholesale houses for DVDs, CDs, and other media, get the Jillian Entertainment Guide. It is simply the best there is, in my opinion. It will also give you the names and contact information for many other sources of DVDs and other media. Salehoo also gives you some wholesale DVD sources, but the Jillian guide is much better for DVDs and also less expensive.
I am already one of your customer and I am trying to get started in selling DVD’s CD’s not on the enternet but at my stores and I was hopeing that you could give me sources to where I could buy new DVD’s and CD’s for each one of my stores at a good wholesale price. I also thought I was getting a wholesale book from you.
Can you help me to get started in the movie business.
I will appreciate it very much if yopu can help me get started.
Thank You
John Bryant
