Default Amazon users help

Is there anyway to just search products they sell and not other sellers who advertise on amazon?

Isn't it the first ones that come up offering the free postage that are the "amazon" products??

I have just ordered from there for the first time the other day, they said that estimated dispatch wouldn't be til the 17th and would arrive on or before the 24th....i received an e-mail yesterday saying one of the items had been dispatched so im quite impressed so far! lol fingers crossed the other item gets here in time too lol

i think the only things amazon sell are books, everything else is their "market place" its pretty good though, i've ordered quite a few things and never had any issues with postage etc

I think they have a tighter rein on the sellers then ebay does.

have had simular issues, as a trade seller on amazon, probably has another job and holidays etc, so end up waiting a few weeks when you need stuff asap,

Ive never had an issue with Amazon direct tho, hence why i want to fuck off all the searched shit not sold from amazon direct

the thing is, regardless of where you buy from theres always that risk when buying online, although i see your point about "scummy sellers" lol
But then thats why the stuffs so cheap, you gotta pay a premium for proper service.

although i do think its odd amazon dont have a search function for just there own stuff...
