The eBay thread and recent "videos" have made me wonder.
I am not talking about buying from Amazon, but selling on Amazon.
Seeing all these videos where people go to Marshall's or similar and use the Amazon Seller's app to preform retail arbitrage.
My thoughts on this are:
1) You only make money if the items actually sell. So buying 20 of some random toy that might not sell quickly seems kind of risky
2) If you do the "Fullfilled by Amazon", all you are doing is carrying inventory for Amazon. On your dime.
Like most things, it can't be this easy.
