    Seems like a lot of work to make $1.

    I bought a bunch of shit on eBay recently for the holidays. The packages are starting to arrive, and a lot of them are directly from Amazon. I got curious so I looked up the items, lo and behold, Amazon had them for $1 less. I used the "Buy it now" and free shipping on eBay. So the person placed the item on eBay for $1 less than Amazon, then purchased it directly from Amazon to fulfill? Seems like a lot of work to make $1.

          Amazon has fulfillment services for sellers so the ebay seller and the amazon seller might be the same.. I mark up my ebay listings higher than I sell elsewhere as well because their fees are ridiculous. I personally don't see how anyone put's up with selling any small $ items on ebay. I don't even bother listing anything that doesn't profit at least a few hundred. Imagine those sellers not even using a fulfillment service..

              Plus many people get Amazon gift cards for birthday, x-mas, amazon affiliates, camgirls, and e-whores. Sometimes they want the money instead.

                      It would be all automated so it is not any work at all for a buck right?

                          that method is explained in detail on other forums. it is automated and scaled.

                              Maybe the seller works for Amazon and used their 20% employee discount.

                              Good luck.

                                  plenty of people do this arbitrage crap. 1000's of transactions @ $1 profit is still a fair bit of $ as long as it's optimized.

                                          numbers?

                                          1000 products a day sent out, no money paid out before receiving & no cash outlay for products unsold ain't bad for £1000 a day


                                          Although, apart from the cost of sending. Maybe same seller but less profit on ebay?
