Important to note that this "purge" is only for wholesale suppliers, not for marketplace sellers like the title implies. Amazon is basically only going to purchase products for resale from large suppliers, and will shove the rest into the normal marketplace operations where they have to compete with everyone else on actually selling and shipping their products direct to consumers. Also of note is that this won't do anything to address the criticisms of rampant counterfeit and/or garbage quality products on the marketplace.
