    It's called drop shipping. So you sell something on ebay you don't own at a price that's more than it costs on Amazon enough to cover Ebay and PayPal taking their cuts. Then if someone buys the item off you on Ebay you send it straight to them by changing the delivery address when you purchase it on Amazon.
