Thanks for those 2 sites, I had heard of them, but didn't know they were selling sites.
I did spend $60 on amazon last night, which was cheaper to buy there than here. And don't have to use PAYPAL.
I am not looking to sell else where, as my stocks are getting low and thats it for me.
I do have stuff on QS , and now bundling up stuff for our local tender centre.
I did read that amazon was expensive to sell on though.

Yes, that's pretty much it.
For me personally, I source from US suppliers, and have them ship to a fulfillment company who then Prep the stock (labelling/barcodes/packaging) for Amazon. Once your stock arrives at the Amazon warehouse they take care of the rest. Obviously there are extra costs involved, but it's worth it in the end. Everything is automated.
I recommend joining the Australian Amazon FBA Facebook group run by by a nice lady named Trish Dickinson. Everyone there is extremely helpful.

I just read a thread on Whirlpool about Alibaba and Aliexpress and the general consensous was that it's full of scammers. There doesn't seem to be any protection for buyers, so if the goods are faulty or don't turn up, tough luck. On the rare occasion you do manage a refund, it can take 7 months.
From a sellers perspective, it sounds like it's a place to sell bulk items as opposed to one off's, so might suit some of the higher volume sellers here.

How do you find your sales on Amazon compared to eBay?
I'm not liking how I can't do variations (or it is limited to size and colour) and I have to list it one at a time. I just got the jist of bulk listing using excel but its a bit time consuming since I have to upload my own images to my server and then copy and paste them one at a time to the spreadsheet.
So far no sales, though I just started and I have still have a ton more listings to do.. Yay going to have a borring draining week this week.
And omgosh I have to buy my own barcodes to list items and each variation need its own barcode..
