Thirdparty sellers are kicking our first party butt. Badly. And its a high bar too because our firstparty business has grown dramatically over that period from $1.6 billion in 1999 to $117 billion this past year. The compound annual growth rate for our firstparty business in that time period is 25. But in that same time thirdparty sales have grown from $0.1 billion to $160 billion a compound annual growth rate of 52. To provide an external benchmark eBays gross merchandise sales in that period have grown at a compound rate of 20 from $2.8 billion to $95 billion. Why did independent sellers do so much better selling on Amazon than they did on eBay And why were independent sellers able to grow so much faster than Amazons own highly organized firstparty sales organization There isnt one answer but we do know one extremely important part of the answer: We helped independent sellers compete against our firstparty business by investing in and offering them the very best selling tools we could imagine and build. There are many such tools including tools that help sellers manage inventory process payments track shipments create reports and sell across borders and were inventing more every year. But of great importance are Fulfillment by Amazon and the Prime membership program. In combination these two programs meaningfully improved the customer experience of buying from independent sellers.
