Is Amazon easy to sell compare to ebay?

nakamuru · #1 06-03-2020

I have both my Amazon and Ebay original account intact (thank God), But when I tried amazon in earlier days I didn't have much luck. So i abandoned and glad I didn't go crazy and just start listing bootleg items etc. But now I wanna start selling and wondering is it pretty good source of side hustle money?

I work fulltime doing UX/UI and having a girlfriend now, the dating cost is getting quite high (yes high maintenance princess). How easy is it too sell on amazon and get like 20k a year or so. Any books or guides to get started? I will be devoting like 10-15 hours a week on this . Do wanna be extra careful as amazon performance seems more stiff then ebay

I think dropship on amazon is little risky too so, any manufacturing suggestion please let me know too. I will research as well

I actually did but didn't get too much replies so ended up adding any books reccomended on selling on amazon. And then squeezed in another question that was overlooked last time. Sorry about that. Guess just excited to see what Amazon brings. I'm assuming though amazon has power hitters so ebay has the edge for small time sellers.

Well amazon is always tougher and you need reviews to sell but to get reviews you need sales. It's a loop. It'll take a while before you get your first sales to get review but this is how it's done.

You can use their marketing tools and pay for them as well

Are you still selling on amazon, if yes I'm guessing their seller performance is more strict also then ebay? I'll do some heavy research.

MUCH stricter... everything about them is a no BS.

You'll probably have more sales on Amazon vs eBay for most items

But its much more strict than eBay, and issues are usually product specific

Only way to find out is if you jump in

Amazon is a professional platform for businesses. Selling on Amazon is 2-3x more difficult than eBay IMO.
