Oh no that is a good con, you list all these things available on Amazon - when someone buys one you just hit up Amazon for it using their address and it's delivered without you having to do anything but pocket the profit you added when you listed it!!!!

Many sellers who sell across multiple venues will send all their stuff to Amazon's warehouses. When they get an Amazon order, or an Ebay order, or an XYZ order the warehouse handles all the work.  This is called FBA ( Fulfillment by Amazon) and is perfectly legit.

 

There are also scumbucket sleazebag sellers who use their Amazon Prime account to fulfill orders. They send the item to the buyer as a gift purchase. This is 100% against Amazon's TOS, and when I find sellers who do that I inform Amazon, who cancels their Prime account and may even ban them.  You can tell if you get one of these because it will have a gift receipt, and not a regular receipt or invoice. Amazon can also tell when they check the seller's account.

Oh, and riddle me this:

I buy an item on ebay and who delivered it?...........AMAZON!

WTH?!?

Is ebay partnering with Amazon now?  How is that going to work for us?


Don't be daft. The seller probably sells on Amazon and has their stuff stored at an Amazon warehouse. It's not that uncommon.

OMG

what is happening here? Sellers getting rid of their inventory at a loss? Sellers not understanding Amazon Fulfillment?

maybe it's for the best you both move on.

These aren't complex subjects.

That's because some sellers here are using Amazon as a drop shipper...if they get caught, they could lose their Amazon Prime capability.

"the seller may have just used a box from an item they purchase from amazon and did not remove the amazon tape"

Only Amazon delivers on Sunday (via USPS)....I've gotten two. Ordered from here, delivered from there. On Sunday.
