Your Choice
When you purchase from a market place seller on Amazon, how do you Make Your choice?
If you are purchasing from Amazon's Marketplace, how do you choose the merchant you ultimately buy from? Do you pay attention to price only? or does the seller's feedback play a part in your choice? do you pay attention to the comments written by the sellers?
I definitely look at the seller’s rating. I will pay more to go with a seller with a better rating. If the rating is less than high 90’s but the price is much better than everyone else’s, I’ll look at the actual ratings sorted worst first to see why they were rated badly. You Can get a feel for whether the seller is arrogant, a handful of people had a rare bad experience, or the rater just had unreasonable expectations. Many times the bad ratings are about the product, not the seller.
I also look for vendors with many ratings. Unfortunately, this means I may pass by perfectly wonderful but new vendors. I just don’t want to be the guinea pig.
I also look for the state they ship from. I choose one that’s close but not in my state so that I can avoid the sales tax. I also hope that means the item will arrive a little sooner. I also check return policy. I will not deal with a vendor with a hard-nosed return policy.
When I buy used items, like books or DVDs, I check to see if the vendor has posted their criteria for Like New, Very Good, Used, etc. Amazon does define them, but I have found sometimes the vendors define them differently. I make sure that I will be satisfied with the vendor’s categorization of the item.
The only bad experience I had with a vendor is with an out-of-print cookbook that I bought used. The vendor rated it "like new" but it arrived with erased pencil marks. It was a gift so this was not cool. But since it was for my daughter, it worked out OK. I did mention this in my rating of the vendor.
