Advantages: Great prices great variety

Disadvantages: All mentioned in the review

Amazon Market place is a handy added bonus to the Amazon site. It is sometimes cheaper and works in the same way as Amazon.
I would urge everyone to be careful though I have bought quite a few things from the market place many of them as described at a great price and arriving on time.
I would however advise everyone to check recent feedback on any sellers you are thinking of buying from as I recently bought a book that was coming from a shop whose overall review amount was good. I didn't receive that book and when I contacted the seller although they were very nice, quick to get back to me and refunded my money straightaway if I had looked in their recent feedback I would have seen that quite a few of recent purchases hadn't arrived like mine...In future I obviously will check.
But I do not want you to be put off prices are good with some Items being as cheap as 1p so literally all you pay is Postage and Packing and for books and DVDs it is defiantly a cheap way to purchase what you want. With the way prices are at the moment every little helps.

Like Amazons main site postage and packing applicable but on Market place there is no super saver and sometimes when compared to sites such as Play where there is no P&P it may work out more expensive.

I have also found that Purchases from the Market place take on average a few days longer to arrive than from the main site.

IN SHORT:
* Like anything...Shop Around
* Calculate P&P costs
* Check Feedback of Sellers well
* And be prepared for a little longer wait.

But even still the good experiences outweigh the bad and I would just advise you to be careful.

Summary: Good Just be careful!!!
