I use both but I personally like eBay more.
How does one start generating sales in the beginning with zero reviews/sales? What would make someone want to buy your product when theres that same product that already has a bunch of good reviews and positive feedback? I would really appreciate any advice thanks!
Does amazon charges a monthly fee?
@@Godschild31695 Some of it depends on what edition you're selling or condition it's in. New, Like new or used. Also, price.
You forgot to say why?
@@Godschild31695 that’s what happened to me in Mercari, I didn’t get not even 1 sale. I have good products, but not sales or reviews
This is super helpful. Thanks for all the info!
This is amazing and super helpful. Thank you
thanks! very informative, clear and to the point
Wow! Your video is totally clear. From the way you talk to the way you present it everything is PERFECT. Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
@@DebtToDollars i want to surgical instruments on these platforms so suggest me which one is best
Thank you - this was very helpful !
I used ebay at first, but with brexit it was difficult to exclude the uk from the search (import charges). In amazon its annoying you have keep changing the countries
thank you for the information!!
Love the info, just subscribed
These are amazing information. Thanks for comparing both. I did sell some items through ebay before and I did make more profit there than when I sold (individual account in amazon) my items on amazon since I only have few items.
Glad it was helpful!
I like how u first started this video, and imma give u a like & a subscribe
Great input. Thanks.
nice stuff and explanation...my younger bro is interested in it.
When i started selling again this year(2021), i was surprised at the 10% fee, that hurt me a lot after selling something around 400 and just profiting 320+ or something, but then after watching this video, amazon having 15% fee higher, yeah nahhhhhh! No other choice but to stick with ebay, IMO. I miss the past years where the fee was not much at all.

@@Godschild31695 Have the cheapest price.
@@Godschild31695 start with items that can’t go wrong (like video cables or power cables). Sell for 0.50 less than the cheapest person. Even if you break even, you get the easy positive reviews. Once you hit 300 and you are sitting at 100%, gouge. People will pay more to buy from 100% positive
@@Godschild31695 I would recommend paying the extra for promotion on eBay
eBay's fee is now 14%
Does it make since in your opinion to test sell products on eBay and then sell them in bulk the ones that sell on ebay then turn around and sell those in bulk on Amazon maybe 100 to 200 units just to test the waters?
Also does it automatically sell on there sites to anywhere in the world or am I limited to the US and if so what are the cost of selling globally vs regionals?
hello, a quick question. If I am planing to use FBA, but my business sells candles, are they taking care really good of the products and are they repacking the products that you sned to them. Because, for instance, if I ship "red" candle and a customer orders red candle do they repack into their own boxes..?
Let’s talk about Sellers Customer support. Amazon sucks! EBAy sellers support is awesome!
Did you consider the Wearhouse leasing cost when calculating the Shipping/Supply cost for eBay? also, where is your PPC costing when considering Amazon? (PPC is not a luxury but an absolute necessary when you selling on Amazon)
Thanks very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks a lot!
How much would you say to spend on items to start of with for beginners ?
what about the fees for the barcode for amazon
Great video bro.
I spend very little on shipping supplies, mailers for .1 a piece and a label.
Great information, however, the S&H for Ebay is typically worked into the sale and you did not touch on dropshipping.
Hi love , thanks for your idea. Is it ok to use usps to ship by myself while I’m using amazon as my marketplace ?
Yes absolutely!
Small business on platform malls are thriving or not, and compared to offline small business?
The shipping fees for ebay are only relevant if you cover shipping cost for the buyer which isn't usually necessary though
Great point! Same goes for Amazon with shipping if you're fulfilling your own sales.
Amazon is better than eBay. The price is expensive
@@callan3319 Better for what? Not selling if you are small.
What is the highest percentage amazon charges ebay is 12.5%? They ditched PayPal so that fee is gone.
Can I make ads on others social like instagram, snapchat... for my products on amazon?
Vry well explained 👍🏻
Yeah. I used both but I like eBay better. I worked for Amazon in the warehouse for 11 months. They paid really well but it really was like working on a slave ship. A very physical job where they work you to death. It's tiresome. Plus they treat us workers like we have no feelings (garbage). I had to get out of there & look somewhere else to work.
Plus selling on Amazon's platform is garbage for alot of small sellers. Way to many restrictions on to many brand items and they take way to long to get the money in your bank account. 2 to 3 weeks is no good sorry. Even with Paypal not being used for Ebay anymore you still get paid within 5 to 7 days and stuff seems to sell alot faster.
@@MrIronmaiden1971 Yup
@@MrIronmaiden1971 Sounds like eBay is what Amazon used to be. Amazon used to be awesome for me years ago.
I am in Australia and my problem is that on Amazon Australia you can't list used books only new but I can add an item to Australia from the US Amazon . Weird. Often by the time I posted something to the US I would be in the red. It's frustrating
Can I trust eBay ? I always buy from Amazon , I wanna try eBay what do you think?
I just started on ebay and am baffled. My buyers have paid 105.75 on books. ebay takes 14.55% of books. after spending $26 on shipping costs and taxes....I'm getting $56 out if the $105 that came in....am I missing something here?
Exactly, that’s why I don’t sell as much on eBay, or anywhere else fees and shipping is crazy expensive nowadays
Can I buy barcodes instead of buying directly on ebay they quite of expensive $ 5 dollars each.
This video quality!!!
Love The VIDOE content! Your S's Killed me tho man! Great information though. I DROPPED A LIKE!!
Nice video👍
Hi ,great information 💁♀️ can I have the information to join the patronic group , please 😊

I understand this video is 3 years old but is Amazon FBA too saturated to come in and make a good living? Thanks.
Thank you for your excellent video on amazon vs eBay.
Your video looks really sharp when I go full screen on my 27" iMac. Do you film in 4K? If so do you edit in 4K and then render in 1080? I am trying to improve the technical quality of my yoga TH-cam videos. Thanks for any info about this.
Thanks! Nope, just 1080p. Watch some videos on lighting if you haven’t already as it’ll help your quality tremendously
@@DebtToDollars that's amazing. I bought some really good Fovitec lights with plenty of brightness but my videos look a little soft compared to yours. I am using a panasonic GH5.
@@DebtToDollars What ISO did you film with? I filmed with a 1000 ISO. Would filming with 400 ISO make it more sharp?
@@swaha55 yes, lower the ISO the less grainy it'll look and less sensitive to light. Shoot on as low as possible. I shoot on 200-400.
Could you Sjjust me plz whether, which is better both in for merely sell international?
Thank you
👍🏻
great video
Amazon is very complicated because I don't like how u have to fight for the buy box or something your buy box don't even show up. I mean like how the hell do u make a sales with no buy box?
So basically for beginners ebay but for more business amazon ?
exactly what i was thinking
hi really great video. I find Amazon fees to be so much. The benefits with amazon is lots of addition external tools such as SAS Seller and Jungle Scout which can tell you how much you are making, is there a similar software for ebay? Something that estimates costs per month, how many sellers and how much profit?
Did you ever find an answer to this ?
@@joshoconnor5005 terapeek ebay's own platform is the best thing really
one last thing I dont get... ok so lets say im selling a product out of my own warehouse.. does amazon automatically still charge me for shipping supplies ?
@Alfred Waylon lolllll wtf
@John Calder wtffff
hello, very good your content!
Is there a possibility to sell on ebay with a service similar to Amazon FBA?
Wouldn't Managed Delivery look like that?
Thanks
It is if you hire a fulfillment service, like FBA. However, eBay doesn't offer a fulfillment program like Amazon does.
Hi. How are you? Can I directly send my products from ebay to amazon FBA without bringing it to home?
Yes you can. Check out my tutorial on how to ship from China/Alibaba to Amazon - it's the same method
No PPC mentioned! Amazon is a scam if you are looking to do private label you need at least 6000£ which most of it will be spent on ppc ( pay per click advertising)in order to Rank the product and after that if if you are lucky you might start getting some profit but until then be prepared for big whole in your pocket. I think eBay I s a much better option, the only question is how quick can we sell on eBay
if im selling around 40 items? also if the cost of goods is 1.50 per item, how u have 75 in the 100 item scenario?
Some of your info is incorrect. The ebay fees, in 2023, are more like 13%+ of all money collected (on product sales price, tax, and shipping) and they haven't been involved with Paypal for a while now. They now use managed payments, from which they collect all the money from the customer, including tax, take their fees off the top and then send you the net amount within a day to a month, depending on your payout preference to your checking account. They also now collect sales tax and remit it to the states, which is a great asset.
Excellent video! How does one start generating sales in the beginning with zero reviews/sales? What would make someone want to buy your product when theres that same product that already has a bunch of good reviews and positive feedback? I would really appreciate any advice thanks!
Thanks! Launching your product is always the most difficult part of the process. I could go on with multiple strategies, but the best two ways are competitively pricing your product well below the median price (at the beginning) and advertising.
Hello everyone which is easy ebay or amazon
good video
Go with ebay learn how the market work first
On eBay do you get paid first and then ship it or you ship it first and then they pay?
You get paid into a ebay account, you send right away and you get paid into a bank account once a week
what if amazon FBM for selling $1000 I think eBay going to win because im gonna pay $250 shipping since amazon doesn't allow hazmat goods storage for free I have to store it by my own or what do you think?
Under cut on costs that easy
How is shipping free on amazon
Using Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA). You pay fees, but they handle the shipping. Nothing is free ;)
How do you sell AirPods and get a permission from Apple to sell those or can you
you need brand owner (Apple) approval to sell these OR a valid invoice and a reseller's certificate
@@DebtToDollars How do I obtain those
@@DebtToDollars Because I found a manufacture that manufactures the Apple AirPods
@@herbfullerton5329 How’d you find them?
Ebay. If you are just a little guy Ebay. If you have 100k to invest and you are ok with a 5% return go to Amazon
Briefly: big volume better Amazon, single units= ebay.
I'm planning on doing both but right now I'm just selling on ebay for now
@@bryankathie thank you for the info I'll look into it
@@dabshanksthe1st488 how is it selling on Amazon !? Is it worth it !?
@@dabshanksthe1st488 don’t it’s a scam dude
@@bryankathie stop scamming people
@@amazighadjaoud8078 Ebay i way better for small sellers. You can list more variety items and when they pay you money hit your bank account much faster.
you forgot to add listing fees on eBay
I think Amazon better that eBay spoiled their reputation with payoneer. That payonner keep rejecting for whatever documents we submit. Just stupid.
Paypal was very easy.
Amazon better
Recently Ebay did away with Paypal
I know the video it’s 7 months old but eBay fees are 12.55% right now
Thanks for the update!
In Europe 15% is a norm
It’s so funny how easy the Chinese companies can sell everything in Amazon and Amazon makes this process too difficult for US citizens
eBay is user friendly
Buyer pays for all shipping on Ebay
It's more common, but it's not for every listing. Sellers can offer free shipping.
@@DebtToDollars but eBay charges you fees for even the shipping cost don’t matter if you included free shipping or the buyer pays it. I just sold an item for $325. Buyer paid $48.50 for shipping. Total was $373.50 so the 12.55% of the eBay fees applied to the whole total amount including shipping. At the end the fee was $51.16 that’s 12.55% off of a $370 no the price of the actual item I sold for $325.00.
So I am not sure why eBay is charging the seller shipping fees when the buyer pays for it. It’s like eBay is charging us just using fedex or usps like if they are affiliated 🤷🏻♂️
@@alannkevin they charge it like that because you technically received 373.50. They view the total as income.
@@alannkevin they charge on the shipping fees also because seller’s used to charge the price of the item in the shipping and do like $1 for the product price to try and avoid fees
Are you able to sell "gated" items on ebay that you cannot sell on Amazon.
Toothpaste. Diapers. Shampoo makeup.
Yes I just sold toothpaste medicine and all of that without a problem. You have to put pictures of expiration date that’s all.
nice

I want to learn to sell on Amazon from Pakistan
