I use Ebay far less than I used to. mainly for out of production/vintage and collectible items. Amazon for the everyday convenience and availability. There are 2 fulfillment centers within 10 miles of here. I can order some items from Amazon at 10:00 am and have an item delivered by 7 pm. Ebay has it's purpose, but everyday goods is not it.

Funbroker (Gunbroker) I only use that for something I cannot find anywhere else, such as a Springfield M1922 with 03-A3 furniture

We've used Amazon quite a bit for many years and have only had a couple of issues that were resolved pretty easily with returns/refunds. I used to use eBay but ended up deleting my account after a couple of bad experiences, both as a buyer and seller.

I prefer eBay, Amazon can’t find the front door and likes to damage things. The even hit a parked car, the clown forgot to apply the parking brake. A lot of folks use USPS for eBay. I’ve had few problems with the mail.

EXACTLY what I was gonna post. Great minds……

My circa 1997 Kenmore washer had some switches go out/break on the front panel. No parts available that I could find, so I turned to eBay. Someone had the exact switches I needed from cannibalizing old washers, so ordered replacements for all the switches on the front panel for pennies on the dollar. Worked like a charm!!
