Edit: Thanks y’all! Question answered. amazon dropship BS, not uncommon
This might be the first time I’ve ordered something off ebay. I boycott amazon. I’m pissed that I inadvertently bought something off scamazon. Is this a common or uncommon ebay thing? (collecting info before I leave my angry, 1-star review). TIA!


I won’t say it’s common, but some sellers do use Amazon to dropship stuff. It’s annoying to me too, I hate when it happens and I’m always sure to leave it in my feedback for the seller for others to hopefully find.
I think it’s pretty common, and it’s super annoying. If I’m looking for something and see that it’s the exact same item with a price higher than on Amazon, I suspect that it’s a drop-ship and they’re pocketing the difference. I’ve gone through the effort to return that stuff if I happen to order it inadvertently. I’ve considered straight out asking them if they’re drop shipping before ordering, to be sure.
