I've noticed that some products on Amazon sell for noticeably higher prices on eBay, and I'm wondering whether there's actually money to be made from that difference. After eBay fees, shipping costs and possible returns, the profit on each sale seems pretty small. I'm also not sure how sellers deal with Amazon changing prices after they've already listed the products on eBay. Has anyone tried this, and is it worth pursuing on a small scale?

Is reselling Amazon products on eBay worth it?
Small margins can disappear fast when the Amazon price moves by a few dollars or you get one return. I'd start with a handful of products and work out the real profit after eBay fees, shipping and a little room for price changes. Keep checking the source price before every order too. If a product only leaves a dollar or two after all that, it probably isn't worth tying up your time.
The price difference is only one part of this because stock changes, repricing and eBay rules can affect the whole setup. A few profitable listings are much easier to control than hundreds that need constant checking. There's a detailed guide to Amazon to eBay dropshipping here: https://easync.io/articles/amazon-to-ebay-dropshipping/ . It covers margins, product selection and automatic price monitoring, along with the policy side of selling this way. Those are the areas I'd understand before trying to scale it.
