Amazon has more than 100 times the client base of eBay. However, Amazon's Product Categories are significantly more limited. Amazon expects you to be a professional specialist in the product categories in which you sell on Amazon. Amazon is also significantly less forgiving of errors. eBay, on the other hand, is significantly more forgiving of errors. This is why there are so few businesses on Amazon, implying that there will be less competition. And the competition is lowered even more if you apply for and are permitted to sell in one of the Gated categories such as Automotive, Jewelry, Luggage, Clothing, and so on.
AMAZON Products:
To begin with, almost all of the things offered on Amazon are sold by other online merchants; Amazon does not own any products. Amazon merely provides an online platform for merchants all over the world to advertise and sell their products through the Amazon WEB site, while pocketing between 7.5 percent and 15% commissions.
There are 2 ways to Sell on Amazon:
1) Fulfillment by Merchant is the process of dropping shipping your products from your store or from another WEB site fulfillment center, such as Walmart.com, eBay, and so on. You never have to handle any products in this technique; only your supplier does. Using this strategy, you will first receive your money before purchasing the merchandise for your buyer. A far more secure manner of making a living. Amazon, on the other hand, only pays every two weeks. So you get your money back plus earnings every two weeks. In comparison to eBay, you receive your money instantly for the purchase of that product, and once your order is totally fulfilled and delivered to your buyer, the remaining money is yours to retain as pure profit.
2) FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) is a method of acquiring brand new things for pennies on the dollar from a manufacturer or a manufacturer's outlet store. This strategy yields the highest profit margins conceivable, as you acquire for $1 or less and sell for $5 to $10 or more. Which ends up being 5 to 10 times the price you paid for it, then you ship it into Amazon's warehouse and let Amazon advertise, sell, and transport the products to your consumers on your behalf. All you have to do is maintain the merchandise at Amazon stocked. You'll have to do a lot less effort, especially if you can get your manufacturer to ship your products directly to Amazon's warehouse, which many do. Some may even apply your branded label to the product for a little price. In some cases, you may transport a product to your facilities (or Home) and then package that product, or a bundle of products, to create a single product. The merchandise is then shipped to Amazon's warehouse. Combining many items into a single offering makes it more difficult for your competitors to replicate your product exactly. As a result, competition is reduced even further. For example, you could sell a set of pizza pans along with a pizza cutter as a package.
Finding manufacturers is simple; simply look for the product's UPC bar code on the product packaging (not the Retailer's Bar Code, which is commonly a taped UPC code sticker placed to the product packaging by the store). The Manufacturer's (or Manufacturer's Distributor's) address and phone number are located next to that bar code. Simply dial that number and inquire about the minimum order quantity and the pricing per unit. If you order directly from the manufacturer, you may be compelled to buy in bulk, but keep in mind that you will be purchasing these things for pennies on the dollar, so even if you have to buy 500 of them at 20 cents apiece, it will only cost you $100. And if you sell them for $10, you've just made $5000 while only paying $100 on the products and $3 in Amazon commission fees + handling fees, leaving you with a net sales profit of $3400.
Using Manufacturers' outlet outlets like Dollar Tree, Dollar General, 99 Cent Max, Five and under, Topper Liquidator, and so on, you can buy a limited number of these products to test how well they sell on Amazon through FBA. And if they're a hit, buy in quantity from the maker. In this manner, you only have to spend a few dollars to assess a product's marketability on Amazon. Much less than the $100 indicated previously. However, the prices at the Manufacturer's outlet outlets will be slightly more than the prices at the Manufacturers. Usually approximately $1 or less per item, but sometimes more. Depending on the Manufacturers's outlet store where you shop.
Useful Tools to acquire:
"ASINspector" is a great online tool that will assist you in locating products that are best-selling in a given category name on Amazon.

This tool will also advise you on the best suppliers for a specific product. In addition to other market studies such as selling trends in the past and present. This tool measures a wide range of market parameters.
You can also sort and filter these sales volumes and gross earnings by highest to lowest or lowest to highest. Using this tool, you may discover that Amazon has the lowest prices while eBay sells at a higher price, in which case you should source from Amazon and sell on eBay. However, if it sells for less on eBay and more on Amazon, you should source from eBay and sell on Amazon. However, don't automatically assume that eBay or Amazon will have the best prices, as Walmart or other internet businesses may.
