Selling On Amazon

Hi,

I'm aware the FAA arrangement/program with Amazon is discontinued already, but I just looked over "Amazon Fine Art" and noticed that you can only apply to sell through their portal if you're a gallery. It appears Amazon also takes a 5-20% cut. I'm wondering if this is why the FAA arrangement came to an end? If so, I wonder if FAA/Pixels could function as a "gallery" and set up something that way? I'd personally be willing to give up a percentage for sales that came through an Amazon FAA portal. Though, I have no idea if the Amazon Fine Art portal has been successful.

Anyone know any more about the selling via Amazon angle?

amazon cut the deal as far as i know. the only way to be on there now is if you have a real gallery with real work ready to go. and not a print on demand. even though i've seen other stores there. i asked and you have to have the brick and mortar place. this place isn't a gallery because it's a POD. though i would like to hear why it went south anyway, why we can't be there but image kind can be there.

I, too would like to see something like that. But I would also (maybe more so) like to see an affiliate program here at FAA. Or even better yet, a way for me to put a tracking pixel in the shopping cart - so I can run an affiliate program for my own work.

Mike, I noticed some stuff on there that to me didn't look like it'd have a snowball's chance of getting gallery representation, and frankly looked like someone just set up a collective posing as a "real gallery". I also didn't know that Image Kind was there. Really? I abandoned that outfit a long time ago. Kinda surprised they're still around.
