since 2009 when I started to use amazon heavily I remember having to always police myself to never buy from items without the "sold by amazon" note. What you've missed is that ever since Amazon added "fulfilled by Amazon" what "sold by Amazon" means is only "pulled from stock in an Amazon warehouse, with that stock coming from both Amazon wholesale orders and stock shipped in by third party sellers." Basically commingling of stock means that "Sold by Amazon" is entirely an accounting function now and says nothing about the physical products or their origin.
