I made a website that allows you to buy anything on Amazon.com for 10% off. - page 2.

This could actually compete with Purse.io If there is liquidity since the user will be dealing with the company itself.

The site is a little bit slow though, It takes time to get data from the URL and then more time to give the price and the product details. I also noticed some display issues on the part where Amazon gives us comparison with similar items.

Thanks for your comment. This is V1 of the product and we 100% have some improvements to make. You should have all item information. Unfortunately, because Amazon is constantly changing it's data, it's almost impossible to make it any faster. Working on it.

Looking into other designs posted on threads to see how we can improve ours.

If you see any specific listings with weird UI, please email us: [email protected]

OK I'm going to have to spend a little more time reading this up. I actually tried Purse a long while back, my wishlist never got picked up, I suppose the location and item were too exotic, eventually anyone offering it no longer had it as a listing I guess. Pursuer, where do your friends live to get that 28% discount? That's really a big chunk!

Don't also live in a conducive environment to Earn (be a buyer) either. Model was always pretty cool to me, so if OP's service is really direct, then it cuts out the waiting time and is directly fulfilled... the bigger discount is only a bonus if you can actually fulfill order.

I might try it out for something small, time to go window shopping on Amazon again...

Try to make your site look like this site [1], design more streamlined and does not need to create an account.
The idea of buying and getting a 10% discount looks attractive, but I have some questions:

Quote from: https://alagoria.com/howitworks

We buy discounted ~~amazon~~ Amazon gift cards from people who don't want them and use them to fulfill orders.

It seems to be a non-professional step from a trusted company "Since the transaction requires that we trust you."
What ensures that these cards are legal, non-stolen, and hacked?
Also if the company buys cards from unknown sources, how do I assume that the purchases come from a legal source?

Quote from: https://alagoria.com/faqs

We accomplish this by purchasing unwanted Amazon gift cards ourselves for a fixed price, then fulfilling each order using fancy robots.

I have looked upon your post history OP and it seems like you have already made a thread about your website here in project development section. I suggest you lock this topic and just bump the older one or vice versa. This is just my suggestion but I think your site would be better if you also try to add a feature wherein anyone with valid amazon gift cards can instantly sell their unwanted gift cards to you.

You can usually get 15% to 20% discount on Purse.io - I've seen a few friends getting 28% off discount on several items.

Here is OP's answer to a somewhat similar question on his another thread talking about his website:

Purse's default discount where they fulfill the order is 5%. Anything above 5% and you have to wait for an "earner" to fulfill. This can take weeks and can cause a lot of headaches. Our business model is a tad bit different. It's 10%, we handle the fulfilling of the order and there is no waiting.

Do you ship worldwide?

Most of the items in Amazon are for U.S shipping only. If you want to ship worldwide, use a reship company like Shipito. I use them very often and they accept bitcoin.

Why would anyone use your unknown service? What's the advantage over an already known and trusted service with better rates?

They all are attractive prices. But how is it possible? How safe is it and how do make from the cheap sales.

Buying discounted Amazon gift cards. The same as Purse.io and a few "making-money" forums.

They place the order for you, so if Amazon ships worldwide, obviously they will (they don't actually, Amazon does).

Compare rates on different exchanges & swap.

We are Bitcoin!

Good job although I have no idea how clean the code is. The design can be improved too. By the way, there is already a plugin/theme exist in themeforest called "Kingdom - WooCommerce Amazon Affiliates Theme".

You may use that as an example for design. Good luck mate. I know the fun of creating something you like.
