Cafepress Items Sold On Amazon
Recently a Cafepress shopkeeper noticed that her transaction report had the text Cafepress on behalf of Amazon written beside one of her sales. A little investigation told her that some Cafepress items, including hers were for sale on Amazon. You can buy them through Amazon but they will be shipped from Cafepress. I had a quick look and it seems that at the moment there is a very limited selection (it looks like there are 197) of Cafepress items on Amazon out of the billions that are available. This is an interesting development though and I have to wonder if they will all be available on Amazon at some point.

I think this is pretty good for the shopkeepers who have their items for sale at another location as it increases their chances of making money. It is quite unfair to those who don’t have their items listed though.

Does anyone have more information on this? I would like to know if Cafepress plans on doing more with Amazon, it would be great to have my products available there.
Yeah it would be good to know, as this has never been officially announced. . . but with shopkeepers currently up in arms at cafepress over losing around 80% of their income as of June 1st, it’s a bit of a “who cares, we’re leaving anyway.”
