Selling on Amazon vs Ebay | Where to Sell & Why( Link from CPCstrategy.com)

Frequently, sellers will threaten to leave Amazon for eBay when a big TOS change hits.

In a sense, those sellers are like North American voters who threaten to leave the US for Canada when the election doesn’t go their way–they usually stay.What we’re trying to say is, the point of this post isn’t to make an apples-to-apples comparison of two online marketplaces.

eBay is not a substitute for Amazon, nor should it be considered one. eBay’s CEO Devin Wenig has said before that he’s not trying to compete with Amazon. He’s just trying to create a better eBay. Instead, this post should give you a better sense of the major differences between these two marketplaces, and what you can expect from each one.

In the end, you may find that a strategy involving both platforms is necessary–or you’ll just confirm that you’ve already chosen the right marketplace for your products. If you want to jump to any subject in this post, simply click the links for that section.

5 Reasons Why Amazon Sellers Are Turning to Repricing Software to Stay Competitive

Guest blog by Chris Dunne from RepricerExpress

Getting your pricing strategy right is one of the most important parts of selling on Amazon where prices are changing constantly. There are two ways you can manage your prices on Amazon — manually or automatically using a repricer.

The latter is suitable if you’re a casual seller with a small number of SKUs or don’t mind dedicating hours of your week checking your competition and manually updating your prices. However, if you’re a serious seller, moving to an automated repricing software to keep your prices competitive is a smart move.

Let’s look at some of the reasons why.

This Week in AMZ #16: Book Sellers Turn to eBay and More

Increased Amazon Fees Pushes Books Sellers to eBay

https://www.marketplacepulse.com/articles/amazon-fees-increases-pushed-books-sellers-to-ebay

Two major changes have affected book sellers on Amazon since March:

  1. Sellers could set their own shipping price.
  2. Fees increased from $1.50 to $1.80 per item. Plus, instead of calculating 15% off the item price it’s now 15% of the sales price plus shipping.

Marketplace Pulse looked at the feedback received by book sellers on both Amazon and eBay to see how this changed over time.

While the site acknowledges feedback is not the same as sales, it can provide an indication. After Amazon implemented the changes on March 1, the site saw a 25% decrease in book seller feedback.

On the flip side, eBay book seller feedback increased by 15%.

With increases in selling fees and higher risk not selling due to high storage fees, sellers should shift their focus on other items. Physical books have become much less profitable than they used to be.

But thankfully you have a wide range of products to choose from now as a seller.
