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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

Do you ship worldwide?

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

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.

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.

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.

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:

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?

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

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...

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: support@alagoria.com

All good points:

1. All gift cards that are sold to us go through a vetting process to make sure the supply is legitimate and there is no headaches. ( I mean we are the ones buying them, so the risk ultimately lands on us.)
Also every order on Alagoria is covered by our guarantee: https://alagoria.com/guarantee

2. We're constantly working on design. Our team is all engineers and the idea of competing with purse wasn't real until the sudden realization that our system is so much better. I mean the shopping experience is literally Amazon (us) vs. Ebay (them). Now it's time for improvements both on the technical side(mostly speed) and the design side.

Thank you for your comments. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Will lock the other one when I get off mobile.

We are streamlining the sell gift card part to get it off email. Creating something that is easy to use and prevents fraud will be a challenge. Working on it. A couple more weeks.

Will Amazon take any responsibility if any mischief happens???

Like what? I don't think returning items, getting refund etc. is possible unless this service allow that but it could be chaotic once they get a large userbase.

[Kprawn]

Well it's always nice when you have some competition. Purse.io has been dominating this scene and they need a bit of

competition to keep them on their toes.    I had some issues with Purse.io a while ago and I had no alternative for their

service, so this is a welcomed addition to this space. I will give it a try and see what happens. {Starting with a small

purchase}

Actually, our software is pretty automated. So everything like refunds and other customer service issues will just be buttons that buyers will click. So if you need to return something, just click a button and a label will be emailed to you. Actually working on that part now.

Fantastic. Let us know your experience.

It will certainly have large user base so will Amazon takes the responsibility if any body can purchase with your website???

What do you mean by responsibility? Amazon will be the one delivering the item to you. We'll be the ones facilitating the order. Not sure i'm underling the question correctly.

[Entratish]

I intend to mean if I want to return the material for not being satisfied or product is not good or if I not received the material after my payment will amazon take responsibility???
