I recently bought 3 products for 50 bucks and had to pay 10 bucks extra for shipping since 3 different vendors. We really need a federated amazon.

This IS federated amazon. What you mean is centralized Amazon. Just make sure to buy products from the same store.

Just make sure anything you order is either "fulfilled by Amazon" or "Ships from Amazon" and you should avoid that. I personally don't order anything that isn't shipped by Amazon (either through fulfillment or otherwise).

And if it's only on 3rd party and no import, amazon aint getting money.
