Ebay is decentralized which is much more scalable than Amazon's centralized approach. Similar to you, I've noticed things on Ebay ship and arrive very quickly. AliExpress is somehow still cheaper than Amazon for cheap things that don't need to be high quality or perfect. You just have to wait two weeks for it to arrive -- which isn't much different than the wait for Amazon currently.
