Amazon To Ebay Drop Shipping Auto Price Changes

goreblaster said:

I have an application I wrote myself that synchronizes my ebay inventory to amazon items. It ensures that I will never ever lose money on a transaction, or have to cancel due to an item being out of stock. It scrapes amazon and makes updates to ebay when needed constantly. It does a lot more than that too. In fact, I have other tools that I made for myself which do things like bulk scrape amazon for the best arbitrage opportunities and generate and upload ebay listings from amazon items. Nothing new, but I wanted software that did precisely what I wanted, and I did not want to pay for the options on the market, and after hearing allegations of Price Yak optimizing their own listing behavior off of the data they mine from their customers, I didn't trust the available options either.

I've considered releasing all of this software for a low monthly subscription rate , but I am not sure if there is enough of a market for it to invest more time into the project. Even though I have it working for myself, It would be a lot more work to make the software palatable to a mass audience.

Working with something now which is doing well, but it is a heavy monthly cost. Would definitely be interested to see how this compares as it sounds like it's a little more no frills than what i'm using

Honestly, you just have to price it high enough to make a decent margin while taking a little risk of a minimal loss
There are tools out there that can do that, but they are very pricy or come with a high monthly fee

There are 3 tools you can use for this purpose:

1. PriceYak - been around for a long time and I have personally used them. http://priceyak.com/

2. Profit Spy - a product of mine, but primarily focuses on "finding" products to arbitrage, but also has a feature that will update your inventory Amazon prices. http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackh...-amazon-arbitrage-tool-overnight-profits.html

3. Pricematik - new to the scene and very interesting. I plan on testing this one out in the future. Similar to PriceYak - https://www.pricematik.com/

I like price yak. But at .20 a listing, it really starts getting expensive once you start having thousands of listings. And if your goal is to go big, it's going to cost you with price yak.

I've personally used pricematik before. They need to have a bulk asin listing feature rather than just a manual one a time like it is now. And support for ebay templates would be nice.
