Thihan Amazon began seeing a slightly unfair profit margin by some of the third party affiliates, it seems to primarily affect the publishing industry but most important it has no effect on us is more a big boy game as Joe has mentioned previous to me. You must always keep in mind that Amazon and other companies will make these financial maneuvers but by golly they will never remove affiliates because affiliates bring such a large portion of their business and profits so WA will continue to grow and prosper, bottom line no sweat....

Third party Amazon vendors are marketing companies that are doing business with Amazon in a larger way than individual affiliates like you and I.

The article you posted says the disengagement from these groups could only be temporary as it is caused by the Coronavirus.

Thanks for the heads up!
