If you look when you shop on Amazon...the box with the price has where it is coming from example Sold by Amazon/Shipped by Amazon...You can also find on a lot of those Sold by Companyx and shipped from amazon OR sold by CompanyX and Shipped by CompanyX. A lot of those "companies" are small businesses buying and reselling on Amazon. I am one of those that does what is called retail arbitrage or online arbitrage. I buy a bunch of stuff and then ship it all to Amazon and they take care of the rest. I get paid when the item sells and ships. So in reality you are supporting Jeff because Amazon does charge us fees but you are also supporting small businesses. Next time check it out...you can click on other listings and see all the folks selling it and for the price they are selling it.
