Amazon's fee's are kind of funky. Is there some kind of formula you use to determine your profit margins.
From what I understand so far is that you'd take the total price of an item including shipping and add 15% plus $1.35 variable fee and your profit will be the shipping credit. For more profit just add 20% then your total profit would be 5% of total cost and the shipping credit. Does that sound right?

But you still haven't given a reason or idea why someone would buy a book for $15 when the seller above them is $13, the totals are clear to see in front of them, item cost + shipping cost. On Ebay people will almost always buy the lowest priced item, unless they have bad feedback
One other possible reason is say that an item goes out of stock, or the person above you stops selling an item, then you become the lowest priced seller

What do you do when somebody buys your product but when you go to purchase it at the online retailer it's out of stock? Do you continue to look through other places or?
This sounds great but there are couple of things you should be aware off. I know these because I sell my own products on Amazon.
1. You can only list free products it that product is already listed on Amazon. The products I sell are produced by me so there is no other seller. To get my products on Amazon, I need to have UPC code for each product ( cost about $100 per UPC) and I also need to have Pro Seller account with Amazon.
2. When you sell an item, Amazon doesn't pay you immediately. Under seller TOS, you are required to dispatched your item within 2 business days. What this means you need to pay your supplier to ship from your own pocket and then wait till Amazon pay you.
I prefer selling on Amazon because it is much more professional in every way. I don't have to worry about Paypal problems, some stupid buyer leaving negative feedback and I don't pay any fees until the item is sold. Over the last 2-3 years there has been minor changing to seller accounts etc not like eBay, every f**cking week new rules are introduced.
Thanks for reading.

This is a good thread.
Keep in mind, you want to get rich, this is only going to start you off. You have to work hard at it, and it will take some time to mature. And for the love of all that is good, read the Amazon Seller's FAQs and watch the webinars. I can't believe how many people ask the dumbest questions without putting the slightest bit of effort into finding the answer. If this is you, then don't even bother with this method, you're too stupid, or lazy, or both.
For those who are willing to put REAL effort into this, it'll work.

Hey Night, you can live in another country and sell on another site...so for you, you can sell on amazon.co.uk or amazon.com...you don't need to joint..you just need to contact them...there's always a way to do something...even if it's looks like it might now b e
For sure don't go the copyright route...you can be sued..you'll also be banned quickly from amazon...put some legit products online....once the customer pays you...go to any online store..(that has gift receipt!!very important...and by....thanks
Thanks Shekar!!! these are the posts that motivate me..
The dropshippers are any offline or online retail. store...they are not regular "dropshippers" that you would have to pay money for....so let's say you put an item up...you would then go to walmart.com and send it to the sellers house...this does work...i've shown many people how to do it..if you take the time it will work..thanks!
nope no affiliates...you just sign up as a regular seller...no long drawn out process to get approvved
pro account
Hey Conscious...the dropshippers are any retail store...no secret list....just make sure they do a gift receipt...lets' say your selling guitars....once the buyers pays you...you would go online and purchase it from say guitarcenter or sweetwater.com...then send it to them...thats it...so reallly you can use anyone....homedepot...walllmart etc...
not sure what you mean buy "real seller" if you mean real buyer..you go online and order it in their name...thanks
THanks Rat!!Great job for digging out for us, this will be a nice source to get started...

If the item goes out of stock..you can just order it from on online store...look at my other thread...I show some step by steps on there..as far as people don't buy the lowest price.....I know a few sellers on there who only sell at retail or above...he doesn't sell at large volumes...but his profit margin is large...so lowest price doens't always win thats for sure.....I can verify this for myself...I hardly have any lowest price items...yet sells tons...
Yup just go to another online store...someone will have it...
nope it's done ach...no fee
.iDoesn't that mean you still have to invest in goods to se*ll?
no you don't any any good at...thats whats great..it doesn't take any money or a huge supply
Thanks...you don't need that many products to start making some good money...list 50-100 and try it out
Thanks Dream!!Very good tips here. Great share.
Exactly....Thanks Talesin!!!!!

Thanks for your explanation. So the whole process can be like this:
1. You go to site such as bestbuy.com and find, for example a laptop has price 1k
2. You go to amazon and list it with higher price enough to have profit after fee, 1.5k for example
3. Someone see that laptop and order it from amazon, you take that info and order at bestbuy.com
You got the difference, right?
If so, I still need some money first to start in order to pay first to bestbuy.com when amazon doesn't pay fast enough right?
What a disappointment, my country is not in that list

Wait a minute
You have to ship products first before the BIG A sends you bank cash.
IF you get like 100 orders and some ar elike plasma tv how the ? can you afford that?
And have you got the nerve to reply on a store to ship to your Amazon buyers address?
And also you have to be a member seller for each country UK USA etc otherwise you wont get your items come up in searches if your not registered on each AMazon account.
