90% of the shit on Amazon is just Aliexpress dropshippers at 20% markup, whom are mostly taobao resellers at 300% markup.

And about half of ebay is dropshippers from amazon.

I haven't ordered anything from amazon in years. But recently I got into a new hobby, read about it, found out what kind of tools and materials I need, and ordered a few things from ebay. About half of it showed up in amazon packages...
