Ever hear of Ali-Expess.com? Well, it's China's e-bay or so like it, but BIGGER! Did you know that e-bay is just a pawn in the game of chess? Ever wonder how new items are so cheap and you can't afford to sell yours for a profit? China produces about 70% of all manufacturing that comes to us in the U.S. There is a conglomeracy of China products based in California that China sellers use from a HUGE warehouse so they can ship items on e-bay faster rather than from China, a new one but much smaller has opened up here in N. Y. After doing much research, I now use ebids.net to sell on and Ali-express.com to buy from, ordering direct and bargaining with the seller using e-bay as a tool. E-bay is just another middleman who has gotten too big for their britches, making money buying and selling products on their website. Amazon is a true leader in selling products and is U.S. not from China based. E-bay is just another website that does not care about you or me but still must not conform to regulations as they hold themselves not responsible as per their agreement policy. We can complain all we want and lose money to e-bay but, it is up to us to do our homework and look out for ourselves. Shop around people, make offers to sellers privately and sell on the 2nd biggest selling site to help e-bay monopoly. Wall-mart has the best prices if you settle for their brands and Ali-express if you can wait the extra time on shipping putting the big time sellers out of business. P.S. China will sell from their warehouses but will not let us use them in the United States. To buy quantity, use Alibaba.com and warehouse yourself if you have the room. Please share these websites with others.
