Hello fellow readers,
I bought my Kndle DX from Amazon as is not concerned about this issue but I decided to raise this question and may be help others to avoid troubles.
I was watching a couple of sellers on Ebay. They were selling Kindle DX at a quite appealing price. So I just wonder if the units they sell are genuine products from Amazon. There were claiming they come with full Amazon warranty etc. And some of them even through in free cover.
So the question is how are those sellers be able to sell a product that is still in great demand for a lower price than Amazon sells it for?
Here is simple math. One seller was selling Kindle DX for $320 with free shipping and also put an option to allow best offers to be submitted by buyers. He sold all his inventory in a matter of time. So if, lets say, he/she sold it for full $320. Ebay charges 10% of final value fee and PayPal takes another 3%. So the seller ends up with roughly $278 of revenue. Minus the shipping cost his net profit is abut $270 or even less. So in order to make some money his purchase price from Amazon should be around at least $250 I guess. I know Amazon do not allow any resellers on amazon.com web site due to the amount of fakes of Kindle 2 it had experienced. But Ebay of course is another story.
So is it possible that Amazons sells their products in bulk to resellers for $250 or less or is this seller selling a fake product? Some of the sellers never showed up again after their big first sales that also raises red flag.
If anybody ended up with fake Kindle off Ebay please share your story.
