This guy buys out all the good deals on Amazon and resells it. Anyway to get rid of him.

He bought all of these products from Amazon US, marks it up and sells it with ridiculous postage.
https://www.amazon.com.au/s?i=merchant-items&me=AK3ORZCE2KTB…

I wish I knew more about him so he can suffer the way he made me. All the great deals were snatched by this scum bag.
All my saved for later items were immediately available on his shopfront but not available on Amazon US

UPDATE: I just reported him for breaking Amazon rules like putting website in description even though it's not their website.

Amazon US ran out of all those products because of him?

  He would buy out all the stock so there is none left and immediately posts it for resale in Australia

    How do you know that for sure? Looks like an established car tools and accessories business for over 30 years. I don't think they made it that far by reselling Amazon goods.

      Because All my saved for later items were immediately available on his shopfront but not available on Amazon US.
      The items I saved for later were released within 1 day of Amazon US.

        @sunnyc: That doesn't mean anything at all. Could easily have sold out to someone else and their expensive price makes them next default seller.
        
        sunnyc on 16/03/2020 - 21:39
        
        @Hybroid: Sold out but how does he have the stock to resell immediately when the product is only available in USA
        
        Hybroid on 16/03/2020 - 21:40
        
        @sunnyc: Because it's not.

        Also, you can have multiple sellers for the same item but only cheapest will show. So when cheapest sells out then next cheapest is shown etc. Example: https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/offer-listing/B076P3GRGM/ref=dp…

        @brendanm: Not the professional range. Like meguiars, all distributors pick and choose which products they want to make or import. Especially when it's a small market like Australia.
        
        brendanm on 16/03/2020 - 22:01
        
        @sunnyc: Try automegastore.com.au or zas.com.au.
        
        sunnyc on 16/03/2020 - 22:06
        
        @brendanm: Yeah, Automegastore just have the ordinary range that I can get from any other store. Zas is under renovations. Also amazon prime has free shipping when automegastore has a flat rate and I already have an account with Zas.
        
        brendanm on 16/03/2020 - 22:10
        
        @sunnyc: They have the professional range you wanted.
        
        sunnyc on 16/03/2020 - 22:14
        
        @brendanm: Not the things I wanted specifically. Only available on Amazon US or usa in general.
        
        brendanm on 16/03/2020 - 22:15
        
        @sunnyc: Then ship it from there.
        
        sunnyc on 16/03/2020 - 22:16
        
        @brendanm: Yeah, I'm planning to. I get a pallet a month as it's the cheapest way but prime shipping is faster and just as cheap.
        
        brendanm on 16/03/2020 - 22:17
        
        @sunnyc: Why wouldn't you just get in contact with Meguiar's?
        
        sunnyc on 16/03/2020 - 22:17
        
        @brendanm: Because meguiars australia doesn't have the whole catalogue of products.
        
        brendanm on 16/03/2020 - 22:20
        
        @sunnyc: If you are buying large amounts, they will get whatever you want I'd say.
        
        sunnyc on 16/03/2020 - 22:23
        
        @brendanm: I'm buying from a wholesaler from the US, they got everything. It's better because I can consolidate different brands. Also it's cheaper because they get better wholesale rates than me.

        @brendanm: amazon us is cheaper and faster.
        
        sunnyc on 16/03/2020 - 22:04
        
        @Hybroid: Because you're definitely superior, I'm not going to insult you because you know everything compared to a veteran seller.
        
        People definitely don't lie about their locations. That's why half of eBay products take more than 20 days and based in Chullora.
        
        It cost only $60 to deliver 4kg of goods from the US.
        
        Most sellers have stock when they sell
        https://www.amazon.com.au/sp?_encoding=UTF8&asin=&isAmazonFu…
        
        If they aren't buying out stock and reselling immediately, why wouldn't they have stock when other have purchased. If I was in the US, I would have gotten stock within a day.
        
        Clearly I did my research.
        
        sunnyc on 16/03/2020 - 22:09
        
        @sunnyc: also called the company and they don't even sell meguiars on their own website. or all the other detailing brands.

    Of course I get bummed out. The difference is not how we feel, it is how we go about it.
    
    I make sure I check the deals more often and learn to live knowing that I can't, I won't, I don't need to and I shouldn't catch every deal.
    
    You go about it by getting worked up and looking for someone and something to blame.

Buy there products elsewhere
- Euphemistic on 17/03/2020 - 12:43
  
  That’s the thing. If it is priced too high it won’t sell. If you can’t get it elsewhere, might need to consider another product. I’d be surprised if the professional series stuff is significantly different to the regular. Might be more concentrated or something but probably much the same formula.
  - sunnyc on 17/03/2020 - 13:26
    
    Same product but it’s cheaper in bulk. When Amazon US sells stuff, it’s less than what most retailers can get at cost price. Only thing comparable is surplus stock sales in the US
