Buyers on this site are located in 191+ countries and regions, and they exchange hundreds of thousands of messages with suppliers on there platform each day.

AliExpress

The site was not working 100% when we inspected. What we know about AliExpress we had to find out from 3rd party sites as their website does not allow you to get to the footer of their website where most people put the About us page. It is a scroll forever site. AliExpress.com was founded in 2009 as a marketplace offering products at factory direct prices from China. They do accept single item orders. The AliExpress.com website is actually featured on the main Alibaba.com website. When you sign up for a free membership with AliExpress, you are actually registering with Alibaba.com at the same time. We found many complaints about the escrow system they use and we must warn the buyer to beware. Please read the reviews before you do business with anyone!

Amazon

One of the largest sales sites started in 1998 Amazon has grown to be one of the largest online sales platforms, with some deals great and some not so great. So many items are listed in each category that you may have trouble deciding which item to pick. It’s a perfect environment for buyers but if your selling remember they take a large cut of all sales generally 15 to 19% before fee’s so you may have to sell at far less than you normally do if you want to be in the Amazon network. When you consider the prices of some items and the fee's they charge I am surprised anyone makes money beside Amazon. I guess it's better to sell at 1% profit than than no sale at all. Google has made it expensive to pay to play in the PPC (Pay Per Click) game.

To be honest, Amazon is a search engine in it’s own. With shipping specials like Amazon Prime it attracts much traffic you will not find on Google. It is our opinion they charge too much to sell products you end up over charging the customer or if you care about your customers then you hand all of your profit to Amazon. We have been burned several times trying out Amazon and with our low prices we never seem to make money on Amazon but they always did. You have to decide if that works for your organization. Others have and do sell our products on Amazon but they have time to break up cases and sell 6 packs or 12 packs. We only sell cases at this time.

Fees are low (.05 – .00) and optional. There do not seem to be any commission fees, regardless of the selling price of your item. Sounds like it might be worth trying?

They were equal to about 1% of the reported sale price and will be expected to be resolved before any further ads may be posted.
