I think a lot of it has to do with the parts man behind the counter. When I asked at the Volvo dealer the parts guy made a show of searching a microfiche and declared no glass available for the Amazon.

Several glass replacement stores later I found one from a company in Wisconsin. $435 with shipping I think it was. $50 for the seal and the install was part of the body work I had done. I think it was itemized at $100 for R&R. It leaked. I finally got it sealed up at a glass shop in Humble, TX. They ran a clean bead of butyl rubber around the seal for $60. So, I've got a $600+ windshield.
