I have been purchasing some smaller things lately, and I check Amazon and then eBay to see where the lower price is. eBay is not what it was 10 years ago. Amazon has eBay beat on price for everything I have searched up recently. My Credit Card holder/Slim Wallet is dented up so I am going to buy another one. Amazon is better priced, and 2 day delivery. eBay seller might get their product to me here in 2 days, but might take 5 or 6 days and higher prices.

Even DJ Up Lighting for example I can go and buy cheaper direct from the retailers it seems now. I used to buy a lot off of eBay, mainly electronics, and I have only purchased ONE thing from there in the last 12 months.

eBay is better for auctions and really really hard to find items.

You got to check both Amazon & eBay. I purchase from both. I brought covers for my speakers. 2 came from Amazon & 2 from eBay I believe 3 different vendors in all. Amazon gives money back on the Credit Card & for taking slower shipping. eBay gives it on the credit but some sellers offers discounts at times. Amazon is faster & has easier returns.

If you are buying cheap Chinses stuff then it won't matter - eBay and Amazon are competing with each other and the sellers/products are the same on both sites where individual sellers play with the prices to find their sweet spot.

I avoid buying from Amazon and don't shop there anymore as a matter of civil responsibility. Amazon loves cheap labor and open borders. I don't like Amazon.
