This is a list with some european alternatives to Amazon and eBay, at least in part. It is oriented to small shops that would want to list its productos in them, but list the web of all of them.

Just one thing: the number 5, Rakuten PriceMinister, is not european animore because was bought by Rakuten, that is Japanese, but anyway, its origins are French I think.

What othe marketplaces and online multibrand shops do you know? I will add to this ones PCComponentes (www.pccomponentes.com), a Spanish Technology and Electronics one, that also has presence in Portugal, France, Italy and Germany. In Spain is quite big and well known.

In France, the alternative to craiglist would most probably be leboncoin.fr.

Also vinted.com, based in Lithuania.

First response ever on Lemmy :) Marktplaats.nl in the Netherlands is quite big and is also used by some belgians i think. It is for second hand stuff mainly. Otherwise Bol.com in the Netherlands/belgium!
