Selling PDFs on Amazon>? (not Kindle books)

This is strange....I've noticed Amazon has products that say:

Available for download now. Ships from and sold by Amazon.com.

However, if you add them to your shopping cart, you get this message:

Important messages for items in your Cart:
We're sorry. [this item] cannot be purchased via the Shopping Cart. Click here to return to the product detail page and follow the instructions to purchase this item.


Back at the "product detail page" there are NO instructions for purchasing the item.

What's up with that? I'd like to sell downloadable PDFs at Amazon, but not Kindle books necessarily.

    Seems like that's a question better put to Amazon's support team...

      Yeah...that would be great if I could actually get someone from Amazon to communicate with me. I've never had much luck with that.

      Today, after completing a long, drawn out contact-us form, I get this message after hitting submit:

      This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.

      Just love big companies and their dysfunctional websites.
