Yes I did everything perfectly shipments out on time everything as promised but then someone told me it isn't allowed so wanted to confirm ...

Met a guy recently who spent 5 years in prison for selling stuff on Ebay that was cheaper on Amazon. They put him in with the paedos and murderers

It's not illegal, but eBay has updated their TOS forbidding dropshipping from retailers (Amazon, Walmart, ....) they may suspend your account asking for supplier agreement to resell items on your store.

Thanks everyone and it sucks because so much money can be made from amazon to ebay and other platforms I guess I missed the train :(

[agent006140]

yes,you miss the train,the train tookoff long ago,and now the early birds are all making peanuts .
and risk being suspended by both Ebay and Amazon.
For something more than $5.I go to AMZN and avoid Ebay lest I ended up paying more to a dropshipper.
