Our Amazon Store

July 06, 2015

As much as we love chicagodist.com and want customers to buy on our website, Amazon has been the main driver for our growth.  In fact, over 65% of our sales come via Amazon!  We offer merchant-fulfilled listings where we ship from our warehouse, and we also offer Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) listings where Amazon holds our inventory and offers free 2 day shipping to Prime customers.  

The only thing we do not like about selling on Amazon are the selling fees, which are obviously higher than our Shopify site.  Honestly though, we feel that Amazon's selling fees are in-line with the value they create for us by connecting us with customers that may have never found chicagodist.com

In a nutshell, buy from chicagodist.com if you can, but if you really want to shop on Amazon, check out our Amazon store!
