eBay Arbitrage Sellers Need To Watch Amazon Listing Very Closely – Here’s Why

Arbitrage selling is growing in popularity among many motivated eBay sellers for all the right reasons. All questions surrounding how moral such means of selling could get usually gets suppressed with the fact that it can actually fetch about 100% profits if not more in certain product categories. So, what exactly is arbitrage selling? Here, the sellers list certain products that are available both in eBay and Amazon with the eBay prices higher than that of Amazon. When a buyer in eBay purchases the product, the eBay seller orders the same product from Amazon and has it delivered / drop shipped to the buyers while bagging the cost difference.

Happy as the train of events may sound, not being in tune with Amazon prices can lead to losses than otherwise. Amazon is known for changing prices of its listed products by the hour. So, it is imperative to keep a watch on the arbitrage products and check that the price tags in Amazon have not exceeded the list price of the same in eBay. Many Amazon sellers who use high quality Amazon listing softwares can have their prices adjusted to competitive levels by the minute. This is something that eBay sellers need to be in tune with at all times so as to make arbitrage selling profitable in every way possible.    
As has been pointed out by the Kings of arbitrage selling, this is one of those unique ideas in e commerce that requires end to end automation mostly with respect to 3 basics which are…
-          listing products in eBay in tune with that of Amazon which is a process which could be a little more difficult than importing listing from shopping carts like Shopify to Amazon etc;
-          repricing the products instantly with changes introduced in Amazon prices
-          And lastly, to keep track of information from Amazon to eBay once the product is shipped.

With these pillars in place, arbitrage selling can be a smooth affair till more sophisticated automation softwares are introduced.
