Guys we need to get real and just put these companies behind us. We need to start selling on our own websites. Bit of hard work but surely beneficial in long term. .
Guys I had enough of night mares waking up every morning hoping that my accounts are still up and fine.
Hope you guys agree with me.
Regards. | Techincally you are talking about two different ecommerce platforms.
Each are complex and difficult to master. Neither play to a consistent set of rules. Such is the perogative of business cartels.
That leaves us, as minions in their games, as needing to be as diverse as they make us be. I would never regard it as practical or sensible to have either as a sole means of income. Trying to live with BOTH is as bad.
As you say, it is imperative to diversify. Having your own website does mean work. Making that a success will help improve your financial situation.
All of this, be it amazon, ebay or a website involves planning, careful planning and work. It's doable.
And when it means you've beaten ebay or amazon, that's the best feeling.
Good Luck
