Amazon eBay Arbitrage Method

7 replies
Hi fellow Warriors,

I've purchased a few products covering the popular 'Amazon eBay Arbitrage Method'. The method is involves:

1) Market research on products that are selling well on eBay.

2) Finding those products on Amazon. Then calculating reasonable profit mark-ups and free delivery of products.

3) Creating impressive product descriptions on eBay with keywords and images.

4) Once item is sold on eBay, log into Amazon, pay for the product and arrange it to be shipped to the eBay customer.

Overall the method is relatively straight forward, however, I'm worried about the Amazon parcels/boxes eBay customers receive once I've ordered from Amazon. This could be a potential problem. Can you wonderful people provide a solution?

Many thanks

    I did this a few times. You just send it to the person as a gift so there's no Amazon receipt. I never had any complaints about the packaging...only thanks for quick shipping. Lots of people stock Amazon products these days, so it's not unusual to have them used as fulfillment.

    If I were you, I would be more concerned with the Terms of Service for both eBay and Amazon first, before worrying about if your iPhone cases box will reveal the fact that you just bought something from Amazon and drop shipped it to your eBay customer.

    But that's just me.

      Cheers Bredon for the advice. Could you let me know exactly what problem I would face?

        Go to Google and.....

        Search 'Amazon Terms of Service'

        and

        Search 'eBay Terms of Service'

        That should help you get started.

    Be very careful, it's very easy to lose money on this since prices fluctuate at Amazon.

    Also, don't ship with Prime. Prime specifically prohibits this practice.
