How can I sell Amazon products without using aStore or Amazon links?

    Hi,
    I have this website where I sell low sodium products. Mostly because I like Amazon's fast delivery and competitive retail prices, I would like to sell their products to my clients.

    Here is the issue: I already have a payment/order system in my website. I would like my customers to make their purchases via this system. Then once I have their orders, I can forward these orders to Amazon and have Amazon ship directly to my customers.

    If I do this like a regular customer, then I cannot make any commissions.
    If I do this by placing Amazon links or aStore on my site, then I would have to change my site)

    So can I sell Amazon products on my site while keeping the site as it is now? (using my own product order system, then ordering at Amazon, and making some commissions)

    Thank you all for your input.

    Demir

    Just register at amazon and create your marketplace profile and then linked them to your site store.With amazon aws you can do most trick to sell all amazon items without your customer know if your items are from amazon.

    create a squidoo lens around the top of what you wish to promote and embed affiliate Amazon products within your lens. Promote your lens by submitting to the search engines, social bookmarks, and some backlinks. Rinse and repeat

    Hmmmm maybe you just need to skip Amazon and go straight to the supplier. Try emailing them and see if they will give you a qoute. Alot of companies are willing to deal

    To answer the original question - NO.

    You cannot dupe the customer into believing the product is from you if you do not already have the product in your possession and willing to ship it with your own shipping label (or a drop ship arrangement) etc. Unless you do that the customer will eventually know it came from Amazon.

    Amazon is such a name place they have more credibility than you. I assume the original intent included the desire to keep the customer returning to you to buy more products.

    Hello eatlowso. Did you ever find a solution to this? I'd like to do the same thing. I'm not so concerned that people know the product is from Amazon, I just don't want them to leave my site to purchase the amazon products, because then they can't purchase my products (which is obviously what I want them to do first and foremost.)
