Sold and shipped by Amazon don't mean anything anymore for me, as I bought 2 Samsung USB chargers from Amazon and they both had the same serial numbers on them. It seems Amazon buys it's stock from Alibaba as I found the same charger with the same serial number offered on there. So "Sold and shipped by Amazon" dose not equate genuine.
Disclaimer: I have nothing against Amazon this is just what I experienced when buying Smasung USB charger from them, one bad experience does not mean everything is not sourced from the manufacturer/maker. It has just left me questioning the validity of the product they sell.
