Answer 1

If I understand your question, you are asking if there is any way to tell what kind of you should put into your _POST_PRODUCT_DATA_ feed for a specific product.

E.g. for ASIN B008HRVM5U, should it be

   
      
         ...
      
   

or rather

   
      
          ...
      
   

To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to actually find out - neither through MWS nor Seller Central. At the same time, the correct matching of XML structures matters a lot... I've spent a total of three weeks trying to figure out why certain products were behaving funnily (you couldn't actually buy them). In the end, I had to contact Amazon support to find out I was using the 'wrong' XML structure for the specific category I was trying to list in.
