Why Amazon accepting sellers only from USA?

    Hi

    I'm willing to selling my software on USA/UK market, but I see the amazon.com accepting sellers only form USA. What a discrimination? I`m very disappointed, because the amazon is the biggest eshop. So my question is: is possible to be a seller on amazon.com using for example an agent or something? Maybe there are other BIG eshops in USA/UK?

    Yeah, use .co.uk
    It's the same with the affiliate system, if you try going through .com it won't recognise your login if it's of another tld (I assume this is the same with the rest of the site too).

    In short...
    UK = www.amazon.co.uk
    US = www.amazon.com

    In a way, yes it's discrimination as they should use amazon.us or something but it's their company. In all honesty I'd do the same thing, as I'm from Scotland I would use .com to represent Scotland and probably use subdomains for other locations/currencies.

    I found something like this:

    Probably the amazon offers the marketplace only for really big sellers (if you`re foreign seller)
    I think I should find other eshop :( Anybody could recommend other BIG shop?

    I repeat my question from 1st post:
    Is possible to be a seller on amazon.com using for example an professional agent/broker or something?
