So my question is regarding amazon to ebay arbitrage. When someone buys a item on ebay, yes you get paid instantly to your paypal, but what good is that if you have to pay with credit card on amazon? Seems like you'd have to pay out of pocket first

for ebay all you need is paypal that is connected to your bank account; no need of credit card. for amazon you have to have a credit card for charges, and a bank account for deposit.

Paying with a CC for some people gets them points or cash back, so it can be a good thing

thats why you need a good amount of money to dropship, especially if your paypal account has holds on the money. After 90 days, there will be no holds on your paypal account, and that will make it easier, but unless you put an extended handling time on your item, and transfer money right away to your bank account and charge a debit card attatched to it for amazon, there is really no way around it.

If your customer bought your item on Ebay and Paid you via Paypal, you can transfer the funds to your bank right away. Then use a Credit card to purchase on Amazon to ship to your Ebay customer. Usually you don't get a credit card statement for 30 days or you have time to pay that amount, so once your Paypal fund for that item is in your bank then just pay to your Credit card.
