Amazon - any sales there?

Grom1985:
I noticed a lot of products on Amazon without Best Sellers Rank. I know that BSR based on sales. No sales, no sales rank. Therefore I have a question. Does it make sense to sell on Amazon?

I don't know exactly what your question is about. What I can tell you for sure is that there are endless microstock images in use on Amazon that are not properly licensed. Often an extended license or an API would be necessary, but it is almost never licensed correctly. Probably because the license terms are not read.

I am also sure that the ranking of the images would be much better if, for example, they were licensed according to API. In reality, however, an image is bought by subscription for a few cents and then used an infinite number of times.

I didn't think amazon supported digital delivery - how are these images being sold?

Prints on canvas, printed coffee mugs, calendars, postcards, printed mousepads and so on and so forth...

If it's one of the POD sites, they don't pay for the license, until something is sold. They use the thumbnails for free to advertise.

Really? Do these people have inventory or are they shops like FAA that have an Amazon store. Highly unusual.

You mean one like this, or something else?  https://www.amazon.com/stores/page/F4E82D18-8DF0-4087-95FC-1070C75CF5EB/?_encoding=UTF8&store_ref=SB_A0367353WSK8MBPG929W&pd_rd_plhdr=t&aaxitk=05e19d141be29abf039f6ce8f30fcdd0&hsa_cr_id=9878709820001&lp_asins=B0897W64GZ%2CB08DK2Q6H5%2CB08D6VXJ8H&lp_query=amazon%20coffee%20mugs%20on%20demand&lp_slot=auto-sparkle-hsa-tetris&ref_=sbx_be_s_sparkle_lsi4d_ls&pd_rd_w=WxMbb&content-id=amzn1.sym.417820b0-80f2-4084-adb3-fb612550f30b%3Aamzn1.sym.417820b0-80f2-4084-adb3-fb612550f30b&pf_rd_p=417820b0-80f2-4084-adb3-fb612550f30b&pf_rd_r=FM2G86J1H096TMR35346&pd_rd_wg=J6R8o&pd_rd_r=68f32856-391b-4d15-b79c-e9cf16b79aa4
