Anyone listing their store on Amazon?

Out of curiousity I thought I'd check out Amazon's webstore options. Looks like they support a possible feed, but their fees seem really high.

Like 8% per order is the lowest and most were 15%. It doesn't seem very likely you could maintain a reasonable margin having to shoulder a 15% feed on every item sold.

Did I read their information right? Anyone doing this already with anything?

We use Amazon to list our items right now. Though the fee is fairly high, the amount of traffic that runs by our product because of Amazon is much, much higher than it currently is at our own site. We don't use their Webstore product, just their marketplace seller option and it works fine. The uploading of products is rather time consuming to prepare the spreadsheet and if there was a way to export from AC7, that would make it great, but Amazon is quite picky when it comes to matching products in their databases.

Overall, I'm not sure if it's entirely worth it, but it certainly does well around the holiday time :D
