Amazon Affiliate and Sellers Accounts =$ No or yes?

[ratsbybuster]

Hi i have a Amazon affilate account from which i have attached to items for sale on my website, but i dont have a sellers account yet so here is my question.

Can i list items on my website and also post them on Amazon and get the affiliate earnings if someone goes thru my website to buy from my amazon sellers account?

Basically creating a commission and a sale is that possible or should I have another account to post on amazon and keep my affiliate account so i can collect both ways.?

- You don't have an Amazon seller account yet. You can not list an item on Amazon if you don't have seller account

- One you have your seller account, you can list your item on Amazon and post on your Affiliate site to get commission. Just make sure the information on your Affiliate site and your seller account NOT MATCH.

- Refer to the answer above

Ive often wondered this as well.

So if im understanding TonyAlmeida's response correctly, it sounds as if this is frowned upon by amazon and both seller acct and affiliate acct should be kept separate and stealth. Correct me if Im wrong.
