Amazon vs Takealot — South African seller fees and delivery options compared

Amazon plans to offer South African sellers a wider range of warehousing and delivery options on its platform than Takealot does, while initially charging substantially lower monthly base fees.

After months of speculation, Amazon announced today that it would launch an online store in South Africa next year.
 
The only area where Amazon scores is with delivery options. Everything else will work out the same on average as intended. I've long said the fees charged by selling portals for electronic goods are too high as in many cases it's about as much as you'll make in profit.
