Amazon Marketplace

Went to the Marketplace because of price - they advertised no tax and free shipping. After I had placed my order, but before hitting 'confirm' I noticed that they had slapped on a $20 fee for shipping which almost doubled the price. Needless to say, I didn't confirm and/or order. I doubt I'll waste any more time looking around here if that's a common practice.

BAD, VERY BAD - FRAUDULENT MEASURES BEYOND COMPARE!
There is no protection against fraudulent sellers sending messages that look as if they were coming from Amazon - payments are not accepted through amazon, but by Western Union!

MEGA STORE, litterally if you can't find it here it doesn't exisit. I order from AMAZON.com about every two weeks just cause other place simply dont' have what I'm looking for. Customer service takes time but speed and accuracy are prefect and beyond compare. They truly are the gold standard of online stores.

Amazon Marketplace USED to be a great place to buy and sell third party items. You could usually get a much better price than the auction sites and it was nearly hassle-free. However, it looks like their "big" sellers of electronics are squealing too much, so Amazon has forbidden sales of electronics by anyone except "pre-approved" sellers, i.e., the big guys like J&R. Obviously, they think competition isn't good for their bottom line, so they're cutting us out. Too bad, nobody's going to buy overpriced stuff, so they'll lose in the long run.

I've bought and listed things on Amazon and I enjoy it better than Ebay. I trust the merchants more and the products have always been as good as described. Very easy system too, since the shipping and payment are all done and verified through Amazon.com.

I would not ever shop there again. There is no protection against fraudulent sellers sending you messages that look as if they were coming from Amazon and claiming to have an escrow account.
My son fell for such a ploy.

I have not shopped at Amazon for electronics, but have ordered many DVDs and books. Every order has arrived in a timely fashion. The orders also have been packaged very well to insure that they reach me in perfect condition. The pricing is competitive and often better than other on line stores.I will continue to shop at any Amazon site.

I find the order accuracy and delivery speed to be great. The DVDs have often come before the date stated they would be there. The website is also easy to use.

amazon has been a God send. even here in ca, it's difficult to find certain cds. when i move to salt lake city, i'm sure i will be using them even more. great selection (they need more imports). except for two times when my account got erased, the service has been great. 98% of all my orders were delivered and most within a week. a lot of fun to sit and put in names of musicians and see what comes up. even obscure ones.

I will never shop here again. They advertise things at one price and try to charge you a higher price when you place it in the shopping cart. Sent email requesting them to honor price several times. They just made excuses but never answered my direct questions.

Amazon provides a very useful, and reasonably priced service; especially when ordering in the USA from England with quick deliveries via Germany.

Delivery speed was incredible - actually a day EARLY. Order accuracy was excellent - I rec'd exactly what I ordered and the best - at the exact price (including shipping pirce) that I was quoted. I would order from this company again in a split second.

If you are wise, you will not buy anything through the 3rd party sellers listed on Amazon. I did, and I was scammed out of $650. This was through a buyer approved by Amazon. When I notified Amazon about the fraud, they wrote me back saying that it was unfortunate, but they had no responsibility in the matter. I would avoid buying from any of these people like poison.

If you decide to do it and any of them ask you to send money by Western Union, notify Amazon immediately.

Beware. The very cheap third-party offerings for expensive digital cameras on Amazon are are fraudulent. and epinions should not list them. The seller
cancels if you try to order through Amazon and if you contact the seller, as they sometimes suggest, they send you a fake email supposedly from Amazon
telling you they have deposited money with Amazon to make wiring the
money safe. It is not safe and is fraudulent. Obviously there are many
reputable offerings by third parties on Amazon. All of these fraudulent ones
are from new sellers.

it is a good store, I like it. I will come back next time to shop and i suggest it to do it in Chinese version.
