Amazon used to do a bunch of POs from super high to super low volume - which meant a lot of sloppy purchasing (typically buying too much and having excess). Basically their strategy is now 80-20, do the big ticket items direct and let the wholesalers fight for scraps. This makes a lot more sense to be honest than them trying to run every single little thing that competes against one-another.
