Where does AOL get their Shopping Data?

Is it a direct feed or partner feed?

Where does AOL get their product shopping data from? I compared the results from shopping.aol.com to those of eBay and Base and couldn't find any similarities or makings.

Since, we do know that aol gets it's general search feed from Google, might they also be getting their Base/Froogle feed? But I don't think so.

Anyone.....Bueller? ;)

Maybe I'm not understanding this, but you must submit your feed to Amazon who will charge you when they sell your products (basically a CPA model, but maybe with a few additional fees). Not sure about AOL Shopping.

We work with Amazon. We have lots of products on the main site plus we have a few of Amazon Stores.

We are happy with our sales for the most part, only a few problems. Lately its hard to have a competitive price for some items.
