Amazon tried competing with eBay but I guess it didn’t do well. I browse eBay and most products are not at good prices. The other night I priced an insulated Dunkin Donuts cup. DD got $16.99 but stopped selling it around here. Amazon was $11.99 and I put it in my cart. eBay had many and I bought it for $9.00 including shipping and that was $6+. Brand new and arrived in a day. Amazon would match the price if from a store only. Some sellers wanted $24.99 plus shipping on eBay and one is three towns over.

I don’t bid and look for Buy It Now only. Just looked at a bag of Werther’s coffee caramel sugar free candy. $4+ plus shipping on eBay and the same on Amazon. Dollar Tree has them for a dollar and expiration date is 2021. I’ll order online for a case of twelve bags for $12 with free shipping to the store. That way I won’t go and find them out of stock.

I’m tempted to buy a few assorted cases and sell on eBay for $3 a bag plus shipping. A Dollar Tree padded envelope package is three for a buck. Before I do this, I’m watching the sales on eBay and if they sell well, I’ll try it.
