Kidsmom,

I don't always pay exact attention to the site verbiage but here is an example of a pet product shipped by Amazon but sold by what they call a 3rd party company:

http://www.amazon.com/Pet-Naturals-Vermont-Strength-Chewables/dp/B000NDZXUQ/ref=sr_1_6?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1339020547&sr=1-6

Notice how it's sold by the vendor but shipped by Amazon? There are thousands of products sold this way and Amazon makes a killing in profits.

You can either be a direct vendor with Amazon or be a Fulfilled by Amazon 3rd party program vendor (which is the equivalent of being on cosignment).

Some companies will sell goods they can't get Amazon to pay upfront on and place them in warehouses to have Amazon ship it upon selling it.

We use the Fulfilled by Amazon model to sell inventory from vendors we purchase from so we can reach their Prime customers and offer free shipping.

AAPT is in so it's all good. It's not easy to open with Amazon so it says a lot about AAPT's sales people and product.
