I've actually gone back to eBay for many types of products, including computer components. The platform itself is only the transaction layer, and you're able to select the specific company/individual on there to purchase from. Because the reputation is tied to the account, they're more incentivized to match the product description to the actual product delivered.

Ebay is based on the idea that you do not trust the sellers. On the Amazon market they can just hide behind the Amazon brand.
