Last time I looked they charged £1.95 plus 50p per book for shipping to the UK, more elsewhere. Some titles are only available from Amazon.co.uk who will ship anywhere in the world. ...

But you can also sell things on Amazon, and buy material from third-parties rather than just through Amazon...that's where it's Marketplace comes in. When clicking on a product, take a DVD for example, you will be given the price, but also an option to buy "Used & New", which ... ...associated with Amazon, just merely members of the site. Anyone can sell on the website as long as the product is listed, all you need to do is sign up for a Sellers Account, rather than just use your normal Buying Account. This is straightforward, but does require to submit card details to enable payment. That's where Amazon and eBay differ dramatically. Whereas in eBay you rely heavily on the buyer sending money, be it via Paypal or cheque, on ...

Advantages: Money back guarantee Disadvantages: No control over sellers, spoils the usage value
Amazon has no way to control the third party sellers on the market place. So be careful when you buy. you will (or might) get your money back if somethings go wrong but that is close to 30 days since you placed your order. Moreover there is added complication that your plans of using what you ordered will get thrown down the well because it arrives later than you wished and expected based on which you ordered. Well if the only benefit of using Amazon ... ...if credit card companies provide that cover already. And you could arguably get the things cheaper from the third party seller directly if finally you are taking the risk of a dodgy third party sellers. I am not sure if Amazon has any policy that is followed in spirit (rather than the text) to ensure that third party seller stick to what is written on the website when you buy. for example, i bought a Canon 450D (not cheap) and it said - all items ...

Advantages: Easy to use, cheap prices Disadvantages: Can't always find what your looking for
Amazon is an amazing online shopping site which offers great product at amazing prices. I have shopped here for sometime and I was thrilled when I found out that DooYoo offers Amazon vouchers in return for your DooYoo Miles. Amazon is such a great site that anyone can use and its so easy to actually buy items. The prices are also very low sometimes nearly half price to what they would be in store, sometimes even lower than that. You can also, sometimes ... ...Your items are paid for quickly and they are always delivered to you within one week. Depending on your type of delivery you can sometimes receive your item within the next day. Most major credit and debit cards can be used as payment, such as MasterCard, Solo, Visa etc. Overall, I think that Amazon is a great place to buy items as their prices are cheap and delivery is very quick. I would recommend this site to anyone. ...

Advantages: Cheap, safe, customer service is great Disadvantages: -
I strongly recommend buying from amazon. It has time and time again provided the cheapest price available on the internet for different items I have purchased whilst being alot safer than ebay. The website also customises the front page to make items appear that may be attractive to you based on your past searches. But I am most impressed with the great customer service it provides. After being worried about an item I wished to cancel and refund ...

Advantages: one of the top 2 market places to sell you products Disadvantages: email correspondence / questions from buyers gives them access to you private email address
In my opinion one of the shortcomings of Amazon Marketplace is that when a customer asks a question an email is sent to your personal email address. You reply, then the potential customer / scam has your contact details and can then put a scam in place to `mirror' Amazon Marketplace correspondence. Top five tips - from my point of view - first time sellers... * Be careful when replying to email questions as you are giving direct access info to an ... ...momentum of your first time sale.

Let me just get this out of the way....I'm a huge fan of Amazon. There is no doubt that what they do is the best. I've been shopping with Amazon for about 9 years ever since I realised that their price were simply better than everyone elses but not that their range was simply enormous allmost to the point that I believe that if its not on Amazon then its simply not available in any significant numbers. Some years back Amazon introduced the marketplace ... ...actively inviting competition. You can almost garantee that price on the marketplace will undercut Amazon prices by sizable margin even when you consider the extra postage costs. I started out buying on the marketplace several years ago (and I bought a lot) and I must say that I was pleased with every aspect of it. Amazon handle the transaction and notify the seller that when the sale has been completed. This is where you have to be clever and read ...

Advantages: Easy to list Disadvantages: Beware postage charge to buyer
...will have probably stumbled onto Amazon.co.uk at some point - you can find just about anything and everything available for sale here (the site has come a long way since the early days when it specialised in books and other media products). Whilst the company itself sell an untold number of items, you can also buy from private sellers & other businesses through what is known as 'Amazon marketplace'. I myself have sold numerous items through the marketplace ... ...the 'got one to sell?' button, give your item a rating with regards to condition, add a description (not compulsory) & a price & bingo! your item is up for sale! Shipping costs are usually fixed, dependant on the category the item is in. A CD will be one price, a book another, a kitchen item another and so on. The shipping fee is something to consider before listing your item for sale. I have sold numerous books that have actually cost me more to ...

Advantages: To many to name Disadvantages: Sometimes you have to wait longer for items that they dont have in stock
When I fist heard of amazon i was really that interested, that was until I was looking for books and things to buy i thought i would give it a go then I realised that they have more than just books etc, when i always thought of them as a book seller, I have now bought more than 200 items from amazon and i have not looked back, I dont buy from anybody else, they seem to be getting better and better there is no stopping them, they have low prices, ... ...sell everything, if they dont have it their marketplace will. I am really glad that they have free delivery and they have reduced it from £15 to £5 which is great, I also love that they send recommendations to your email on the topics that you have been searching, and i have bought some of their recommendation as well, I can only say good ...

~~~Introduction~~~ Following my review on Amazon itself I thought I would give my opinion on the Marketplace side of things. Previously, though a big Amazon fan, I had never really paid much attention to this side of things until January when I found I had a large amount of things to sell and was wondering how to go about it. The large majority of these items were dvds and video games and my mind turned to ebay or trade-in shops but a friend mentioned ... ...had found it quite successful. So I looked into it. ~~~Selling on Amazon Marketplace~~~ As an Amazon account holder you need to be registered with Amzon. If you want to be a seller on Marketplace they ask for a few more details for security including a bank account number. You can actually start selling immediately without providing bank details and add them when you have made your first sale if you so choose but without the details you will not ...

Advantages: Good prices fetched Disadvantages: they suspend you for no apparent reason, high selling fees feedback system
...We were selling on amazon.co.uk as a business for 5 years successfully with 99% feedback which was excelent. Then one day I was suspended, for what exactly well it took 3 days to find out, I had given 0.2% too many refunds that month! this was down to a buyer contacting me to say they wanted the dvd instead of video and had made a mistake therefore could I refund him. At the risk of a negative and to promote good customer services I said yes, and ... ...That was it no more selling, they kept the £700 they had recieved for our sales for 90 days interest free and then had the cheek to bill me for the merchant selling account fees each month. They are absolute in their decision and it is impossible to open another account, as they crawl your ip address, bank, name, credit cards, tel no everything and are banned as soon as a match is found. There are numerous horror stories on the net apparently a big ...
