      Always take the free shipping, even if prices are (mostly) the same. If you have to return something, you don’t always get a refund on the shipping costs.

      Ohh, free shipping. click

      Also, if you get refund you don’t typically get shipping refunded. Definitely worth that penny here.

      Recently on Amazon: $10.99
      + free shipping if you have prime, which I don’t
      so + $4.99

      Meanwhile on eBay: $5.99
      + $4.99 shipping

        After trying to return stuff on Amazon and eBay you will understand. I’ve been paying for prime 5+ years at this point, so much peace of mind.

          So far I haven’t noticed a real difference between the two marketplaces (partly because Amazon has gotten worth), but I’m sure millage may vary.

          Not that anyone asked, but my greatest frustration lately is when I order something on ebay and it shows up in an Amazon box. F THOSE COMPANIES

            Companies selling on both, companies reusing used Amazon boxes, or am I missing something entirely?
