    Lots of people have had success with amazon plus amazon is well know and trusted.

    Ebay = not too many scammers for me, but enough at least on the selling end

    Apples and Oranges. Each has it's own things that it is good for. For example, Collectibles would tend to fit with eBay better than Amazon. However for manufactured items, Amazon would probably be best in most cases.

    One could build quite a list of pros and cons, but, ultimately it comes down to what your site is trying to promote or sell and which is a better fit.

    Then too, maybe both would work within the same site. Hmmm?

    Hello, i will choose eBay as it is easy to customize. You can choose any shipping and shipping fee you like. You will have to choose only Amazon fixed shipping if you want to use Amazon as it is cannot be customize.

    I've used both. I've had the most success with Amazon but eBay use to pull the bigger numbers before Amazon adjusted their affiliate program.

    FWIW
    Amazon cookie is 24 hours
    EPN cookie is 7 days..

    I think you can do well promoting a general category in EPN.. someone mentioned collectibles..
    with Amazon, i think you would do better promoting a single item.. at least 1 site per single item..

    Depends on the products you're selling. Buyers trust more Amazon as it's not known for having so many fakes on sale as on eBay. Amazon is not good for dropshipping as they only pay you when you submit the item tracking number, so you need to wait for the payment a bit longer that on eBay. If you sell on eBay you're heavily related on PayPal, while on Amazon you are not,
