      One of our shops got a Panda penalty back in september.

      We sell all our items with same product name and same product description also on amazon.com , amazon.co.uk, ebay.com and ebay.co.uk.

      Did you ever have a case where such multichannel sales caused panda penalty?

        Google is pretty good at determining the original source of content.

        Did you publish the content on your site first? If not, you will need to rewrite the content on your site to make it unique.

        Also consider how often you site is spidered by google, if its every two weeks and you published the content on amazon a week after publishing on your own site google will probably view amazon as the original source of your content because it saw it there first.
