Why wouldn't you reuse Amazon packaging when sending an item on ebay?

Some peoolle have automated ebay/amazon leveraging set ups - for eg the cheapest I could find a brand name snorkel set on ebay was £19.99 - and since i often find ebay the cheapest, I bought without futher searching.

3 days later the package arrived from amazon, complete with packing slip, where I found it cost £16.

Searching the sellers account they had thousands of random listings - where I assume they can leverage a small profit. Items came and went quickly from their inventory, I assume as amazon prices fluctated.

It is good if you don't have prime though as you save on postage.

What exactly is the problem here? Sounds like you're just irrationally petty.

Where have had said I had an issue? I was just commenting on the amazon/ebay leveraging as someone about spoke about it...

My bad, I was meaning to answer the other poster who said it was "extremely frustrating".

If I wanted to order from Amazon I would have.

You didn't order from Amazon. Somebody else did, for your convenience.

Not convenient considering I have my own Amazon account. The seller can expect 1 star and maybe even a return.

They probably mean receiving the package directly from Amazon?
