Amazon Marketplace

Amazon's marketplace combines the easy interface and payment options of it's normal website with the cheap and large product selection of eBay. In many respects, Amazon's marketplace is a very reliable place to shop. Payment is handled by Amazon which makes the safety of your cash a little more safe. However, I would definitely advise against buying from low rating sellers. Low rating sellers are often slow at shipping and skip out on important details to ensure the safety and condition of your package. Don't fret though, Amazon's sellers include many trustworthy, highly rated seller -- a glaring contrast to eBay's scam pool.

The selection at Amazons marketplace is the other high point. Practically every item and definitely every cd and book in there inventory sells for dirt cheap used and are mostly in great condition. I definitely recommend Amazon.com's marketplace shop to anyone and everyone, frugalites and the well-endowed alike.

I buy and sell through Amazon Marketplace and I love the prices. Sometimes a book will be delayed in shipping or sometimes order accuracy is not so accurate, but that it to be expected. No biggie. I typically have a pleasant shopping experience.

If you are one of those people who don't excuse a little error here and there, you would be better off paying full price. But if you have a little patience and see that little errors are worth the money you save.. then Marketplace is definately worth a try.

Overall I am quite happy with Amazon Marketplace and I will continue to keep shopping and selling there.

I love Amazon.com. I have both ordered and sold from there.There delivery speed is very good.They were very accurate. The customer service is outstanding. They always email me back immediately.This is definately a great website to both order from and to sell from.

I love Amazon. The digital locker feature is great!
My orders have always shipped quickly.
A wide range of products are available.

Very crappy customer service and it's been almost fourteen weeks now since they promised me a 3 day maximum delivery on a $90 video game. Not a phone call or letter from them either.

Amazon is really amazing. Great selection for customers and quick delivery. Customer Sevice is helpful and excellent. I always enjoy my shopping at amazon.

I ordered a Seattle Seahawks rug for my son is Sept. Finally showed up in October, opened it, it sez New York Jets. The order went thru Coast to Coast Hardware-Home and Beyond. There was no contact or return information in the package, only the wrong rug. I emailed both Coast to Coast and Amazon 8 times, with no response. Hunted thru the website to find a phone number, waited on hold forever, the guy sez why did I wait so long to make contact!!! Didnt you listen to what I have been saying!! Ok he will send a return slip and info. It never arrived. He lied to me. Amazon has done nothing to help. Never use the Marketplace Online Store. I paid outrageous shipping, because it never showed when I placed the order, only when I was charged. So 6 months later I still have an expensive wrong item.

Amazon market place are UNNECEPTABLE they should not be a company.Where should I Start the customer service is terrible,so was the delivery speed and almost everything else in the company is terrible!I ordered a Pc game and I still have'nt got anything!Not even an email!

Amazon.com is fast becoming the central clearing house for on-line ordering from many different stores. In general their product selection, delivery times and order accuracy are excellent. Amazon makes it easy for shoppers by housing name brand merchants under their roof, however, bear in mind that some of the sites Amazon does business for display lesser price tags for the exact same item. Each has their own reduced shipping fees and dollars off deals. When it comes to customer service Amazon has much to learn. If you have a question on a charge or item ordered, be prepared to receive general replies which never answer the question until you ask for someone who reads and comprehends the language, which in my case is English! It is not often that a situation presents itself in which I must contact Amazon, but when it does, my lament is audible.

Having anguished over the selection of a small network enabled color laser printer, I final chose the Brother HL-4040CN.

Next was to find the right price from a reputable supplier. Via Epinions, I visited the Amazon site and found the printer was being sold through an Amazon.com "trusted seller", esellerutrust, at one of the lowest prices available on the internet. I placed my one-click order.

Three days later (several days earlier than anticipated), my printer, which was received excellently packed, was up and running.

I have never had a bad shopping experience with Amazon.com, but even I was impressed with the efficiency of this order.

I've ordered a number of things from Amazon and have had mixed experiences. The great thing about Amazon is that they have everything. There's one stop shopping for you! However, I find that many of my items that I ship with the free shipping take a very long time 2-3 weeks (and yes these are amazon items that are brand new). Recently I just ordered something as a gift, and used the free shipping, and since it was sent by usps, it took a while. Once I ordered a knife set from them (that was directly from them, new, and the only vice was that they were one of the friday specials), however, when I received them they were somewhat rusted. Just to clarify, none of the items that I had bought were used, and all where new amazon items, shipped directly from amazon.

What a waste of time. When I placed my order yesterday Timeslips 2005 software was in stock at a great price and being shipped by Thursday. Today I get an e-mail from someone not even Amazon (their authorized supplier?) saying, so sorry, but we cannot fill your order. Now I will have to buy elsewhere (at a higher price that I was promised) and pay higher shipping to get the software I needed here this week. Never again!

NEGATIVE REVIEW

On the site it says I can get a calculator for 62.99 but when I click on the price, it comes up as 89.99 or buy used starting at 69.99. That comes across as false advertisement. Not impressed and will not buy from.

Twice in the last year, the Amazon web site stated the item was “in stock”. After purchasing, a day or more went by and then informed by email that the items were not in stock and shipping date was unknown. On the first occasion, this issue created a problem since I had a dead line to meet and the turn around time to contacting Amazon and canceling the order exceeded my dead line ( complicated by the Amazon web site down for 1 day). How many of us have the time to repeatedly check a web site to see if it is up? So, I took a chance and ordered through another company and canceled the Amazon order at the next available date. Shipping delays met not just days but weeks and uncertain or “estimated”. The second item was not time sensitive, so I waited. No problems with item received. Order accuracy - fine. Customer service - OK, if the web site is up and running. Overall satisfaction - now leery of ordering from Amazon if I need to receive an item on a deadline.

Bought brand new. Got 2 DVDs & free ship on orders $25 or more. Wide selection. Love Amazon's products. Shipped quickly. Was well satisfied.
