Yes, that's why I explicitly said that the article information has to include

> "sold and delivered by TheOriginalManufacturer"

It's commingled if it says "sold by TheOriginalManufacturer, delivered by Amazon"

It's a pretty small line next to the price.

(Prime delivery tag isn't an indicator btw, sellers can get prime certified and still handle their own shipping.)

This is not correct. All that means is that the inventory is stored and fulfilled from Amazon’s warehouses. Commingled is a (minority) subset of that.
Right, i was imprecise with that and should've said "commingling is only an option if the delivery is fulfilled by Amazon". The rest of my comment was entirely on point though.

Kinda a stretch to say it's a minority though. There wouldn't be such an issue with counterfeit articles from Amazon if it wasn't the norm
