Automatisation of the Amazon to Ebay Method

[Garabaldi]

When you get to be a massive account, rules on eBay start not applying to you.

I 100% agree with this statement.

The thing is the people that are selling softwares are trying to make the easy money. Easy if they know how to create software so to speak and easier than building up an ebay account and dealing with all of the nonsense along the way. When I mentioned the HUGE ebay sellers doing Arbitrage on eBay they are NOT using a purchased software from one of these companies you see advertising to automate it. They 100% had their own software designed to suit their needs.

yes you are 100% correct. Anyone who's doing the automation thing right in a massive scale is doing it with proprietary software.

Your are totally right and this is how Pricematik started.

A year and a half ago I started drop shipping from Amazon to eBay and as a software engineer I quickly realize that I was able to almost automate the whole process. At first I automated the listing creation process then the price tracking / stock tracking and so on.

Using my own software I have manage to built an eBay account that is generating around $15,000/month of profit and that is growing every month as the selling limit increases.

After thinking about the success I had using my software I came with the idea to make a pubic version and Pricematik was born.

2nd that. If you have limits in the millions (items) & you are giving them thousands a month in fees, they see you & treat you VERY differently. At that level, a simple phone call usually solves most anything

I know for a fact that if you get to the point where eBay assigns you an account rep, the account rep can help you a lot getting rid of the defects and stuff like that.

Exactly right. Not sure if it still is this way anymore since both are different companies, but Paypal as well - at least for us at the time.

I automate my ebay accounts, but, I sell stuff manually for a couple of weeks to build feedback (I sell low price stuff). This usually prevents bans, imo.

We might be using the same automation tool :super: Why not automate right off the bat? You can still sell low priced risk free items at a low PM

Automating the method seems quite simple since amazon and ebay provide their API for free.

i've developed an ebay/arbitrage software with a "big" ebay dropshipper from the USA, and i believe this tool is most powerful software in the market, you really should to see the matching results. it's incredible!
