Amazon is really a great place to sell, I love it more than eBay. It doesn't take years to post an item. I hate when buyers are to stupid to read an items description and pending orders.

What do you hate?

Well i wish there was a way to hide the items your selling so no competition could see what your selling, although i know this is impossible, since Amazon wouldn't know the difference between the sellers and buyers viewings your store front.

Yeah I also hate when you end up getting some bad feedback due to the buyer not reading the item description.

Also find they charge more in general than eBay when it comes to final fees, however though, i noticed items generally also sell for a higher amount on Amazon, so i guess it's 50/50 pros and cons.

Apart from that, I love there platform and how easy it is to list items, very user friendly unlike their staff

Because of my many years of selling on AZ, I hate just about everything about it, except the great prices I can get. But I'd say the worst is the 15% fees for selling in the software category. Give me a break!

I hate most are the STUPID BUYERS!

They open claim for no reason and fail to contact you then insist they tried to contact you but of course amazon has no proof of that but doesnt want buyer is right..

The claim button is just too close to the other ones which makes it easy for buyers

Random deletions and no access/response = potential nightmare.

If you're referring to stuff like laptops and such, I hear you. They'd need a Secret Service background check and a letter from the President before letting you list that stuff!

Yeah might seem like that to some, but no most high ticket items are restricted to preapproved sellers and you need a bank for each amazan, that's not the case with paypal.

For me amazon doesnt create any issues, its the idiotic/dumb buyers. Although rare, you get buyers that complain about the dumbest things.

Searching for products is a nightmare on Amazon. Also many products don't have the fancy description/pictures/features that some products on Amazon have.

Just the other day I was searching for something to buy, and one of my PC's wouldn't find it. I used the exact same keywords. I had to search by ASIN to have it show up in the results.


All that = fewer sales.

15% fees are nothing. The traffic the sites yields is well worth it.

This new 14 day reserve is ridiculous, with it being 6-10 days for a cash out too it can end up being a month before you get paid, far too long
