I have finally had it with Amazon. Â Why would I sell on a site when my biggest competitor is Amazon itself. Â I had a great line of out of print books that I bought from a company in Salt Lake. Â They had 500 left. I was a bit worried I would not be able to sell all 500 so I only purchased 100. Â I listed 50 on eBay and 50 on Amazon. Â They were selling quickly on both platforms. Â A month later I called the owner and asked if I could buy the other 400. He said Cindy you are about four days late. Â Amazon has purchased all of them. Â Amazon saw my numbers, saw I was selling a lot of them and found the company and bought them all and then lowered the price by $5.00 each and put it in Prime for Amazon Buyers. Â I lost all those sales. Â I had pretty much had it but started doing numbers on my cost to sell on Amazon and eBay. Shocking. Â I will write about that this weekend. Â Some more sneaky things coming from Amazon with payments being added to stores online. Do you really think that taking Amazon Payments will be beneficial? I think Amazon is only phishing for your customers info and will send Amazon links and try to get those sales off your site. Â
