Can you download images from Amazon?

Yes. Any image an Amazon product page loads in your browser can be saved to your computer, and nothing about the process is technical or hidden. The catch is never whether you can download. It's which size you get, and what you're allowed to do with the file afterward.

Downloading is fine. Republishing usually isn't

Saving a photo for product research, spec checks, a supplier comparison or your own reference file is routine, and sellers do it all day. The photos still belong to the brand, the supplier or the photographer who made them, though. Amazon's rules and plain copyright both land in the same place: their listing, their images.

Put the same photo in your own live listing without permission and it stops being research. That's the version that gets listings taken down and accounts flagged, especially when the photo is a brand's hero shot or a competitor's lifestyle image. If the supplier sent you the image pack and said use it, that's permission. A photo you found on a listing is not.

How to download Amazon images in practice

For one or two photos, the manual route is fine:

1. Click the main image to open the enlarged view, then open it in a new tab.
2. Check the URL for a size segment like _AC_SL1500_. Delete that segment and reload to get the largest version Amazon holds.
3. Right-click and save. Repeat for each gallery thumbnail, and click every color swatch, because variant photos only load once that variant is selected.
4. Scroll down to the A+ modules. Those banners and comparison charts are separate image files, and they're easy to miss entirely.

Expect the ceiling to be whatever the seller uploaded. Plenty of listings top out at 1500 or 2000 pixels on the long edge, and older ones at less. There's no bigger file hiding behind the page than the one in the zoom viewer.

Where the manual method falls down

It works. It's just slow, and it skips things. A nine-image gallery with four variants and an A+ section can mean thirty-plus separate saves for one product. Multiply that by a research list of twenty products and most people give up halfway, which is how reference folders end up missing exactly the variant shot they needed later.

Doing it with HiRes

HiRes puts a button on supported Amazon product pages. Open the panel and the images the page exposes are already grouped: main gallery, variant images with their option labels, detail and A+ images. Save files one by one for free, or package a selection as a ZIP with Pro ($19 one-time). It runs locally in Chrome, files land in your Downloads folder, and nothing is uploaded to us. The limit is the same one every tool has: if the page doesn't load an image, because of a login wall or a regional storefront quirk, there's nothing there to save.
