Shipping charges

[mickybruce]

eBay sellers have some great items to sell, but when they include shipping charges on items, many times I can purchase it cheaper on My Prime Amazon account.  Sorry people but that’s what makes you loose watchers, and buyers.

Good for you, are you aware of the recent USPS price hike?

@mickybruce    So your point is ?????  Are you aware that many people would rather support a small business before a Billionaire.

How much does Prime cost now?  I've never had it.

[slyders_finds]

$140-$180 a year.

Good thing I'm selling items that can't be found on Amazon.

You're telling us this because why? Personally I couldn't care less what you do.

[slyders_finds]

Amazon can sometimes be better for generic stuff, but If I am looking for rare collectibles or unique I am looking on Ebay.

Loose is your pants after 2 months of Ozempic

Lose is what the Yankees did

When you add the $16 a month for the wonderful Amazon account, did you really buy that much 12 months out of the year, to really save??

Yes, the key for some on here is to stay competitive with pricing while offer a quality product.   Some sellers will try to compete with the other site and some will not.   Often times on eBay, you may find a quality, reliable product and seller with good prices, but to go to the other site seems unproductive unless you get a large discount.  Many times you will find good items on the other site, but some unique items or old style items you will not find there.  Also, as I recently found out, you may order an item on the site you mentioned, and get a completely different item (wrong order) and then have to return it.  I even ordered a replacement for the wrong order, and again the system was messed up and sent me the same wrong item.  I wasted 2 weeks, and had to order off another site (not eBay) to get the item, yes, in that case the item was more expensive on eBay because of high item / shipping price.   The item were just cardboard shipping boxes.

I understand how ya’ll can be angry, however; #1 Amazon Prime is $139, but there is free shipping, Prime tv, and returns are hassle free.  Some sellers sell at a good competitive price, while others as much or higher than Walmart, or Amazon.  I was in higher management in retail for over 50 years, you have to be competitive, and have quick turnover, or holding on to product slows down your sales.  Don’t mean to step on any toes.  Good luck with your business.

Didn’t know I was fighting anyone.  Have a nice day!

That’s true, but people have to eat and pay bill, too!
