Sellers tracked by Mercent, an e-commerce software company, use FBA for 16% of their sales, up from 8% in 2012.Amazon's original idea was to have few warehouses and to put them far away from population centres, thus avoiding the need to collect sales tax in the states with the most business.
"Fulfilment by Amazon" (FBA) allows independent merchants not just to sell their wares on Amazon's website but also to ship them through Amazon's supply chain.
He says this also allows his company to use its package designs for shipping, a step up from the generic Amazon cartons its FBA service uses.
Increased volume will improve CAH's shipping rates and negotiating position, thus producing cost savings that would provide a tangible return on this generosity.For now, Cards Against Humanity remains available through FBA, but Mr Temkin is watching initial metrics carefully.
"There couldn't be any scenario in which we were in possession of lots of boxes," he says.Thus when it went into full production, CAH turned to Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA), a division of the retailer that acts as a shipping processor.
