Wouldn’t that just be ebay? Or ebay before they began expanding? In most instances nowadays you can buy direct from manufacturer as well, and that’s becoming more common as time passes and companies invest in their own distribution infrastructure
That’s still centralized the same way that Amazon is, they just don’t use the same aggressive affiliate program.
