Python Selenium Web-Driver not finding text element

Question

I am trying to get the product's seller yet it will not get the text. I assume this is some weird thing since the text is also a link. Any help?

Python Code:

self.sold_by = driver.find_element_by_css_selector('#sellerProfileTriggerId').text

HTML Element:

<a href="/gp/help/seller/at-a-glance.html/ref=dp_merchant_link?ie=UTF8&amp;seller=A2IEDZAWBB03ZE&amp;isAmazonFulfilled=1" id="sellerProfileTriggerId">SKUniverse</a>

The mentioned element is with Id, I would suggest to use self.sold_by = driver.find_element_by_id('sellerProfileTriggerId') — Vijay Dodamani

Try like this:

self.sold_by = driver.find_element_by_css_selector('#sellerProfileTriggerId')
text_element=self.sold_by.text
print(text_element)

Also, why aren't you using xpath or id selectors! Just asking :)
