RE: Re activation of ASIN #xxxxxxxxxxx

This ASIN was placed in inactive status due to a customer complaint, “Used sold as new”, “Damaged/Defective”

A). What Went Wrong, Root Cause: used item sold as new-

The xxx drum box the customer received was from a previous return we received from another order. We mistakenly sent out the returned box to the customer. Therefore when the customer opened the box the drum was showing signs of use and it was the wrong tuning.

Our big mistake was to store the new inventory, next to the Returns, this resulted in us pulling the return instead of a new box for the customer.
Another mistake we had made that we store returns and recycle them only once a month and not when they arrive at our warehouse.
We do not resale our returns.

B) What we a have done to fix the problem: Customer received a previous returned item- used item sold as new

**Taking Care of the customer:**

        The customer contacted us, we apologized  and we refunded them immediately for 
       the purchase.
       The Customer than ordered a new drum from us through amazon that we shipped 
        expedited and was satisfied with our service in making it right.

**Removing of the Return inventory from the warehouse** 
       We physically removed all Return drum sets from the warehouse area, done Jan 10th
             - unpacked all returns and put the drums in the plastic bins for recycle, outside
               the warehouse.
              - destroyed all original xx drum boxes from the returns so they can not be used 
                for shipping

     We did a thorough inspection of the xx inventory in the warehouse, done jan 10th.
              - checked all xxx Drum boxes in the warehouse if the box was in the original 
                 unopened condition and matched our inventory list.
              - discarded and cut up any xxx box that was used to store  the return sets.

     **We reorganized the warehouse storage area, done Jan 10th.
       - Clearly labeled shelves for the    xxx drum Boxes.
       - instructed our packing staff to only pull from the clearly marked shelves 

     **We changed our  Handling Return Policy, implemented jan 10th**
       -instruction of the staff to  immediately unpacked  any xxx drum return and destroy the original box and put the drum  in the plastic bins for recycling outside the warehouse.

C) What we have done to prevent the problem used item sold as new, from recurring

    -  Picking inventory:  
           We implemented a new policy and trained our packing staff to only pull from the xxx drum , done jan10th
           marked shelves in the warehouse and double check if the seal of the original xxx 
           box is intact.
           If the seal is broken, unpack the drum, discard the original box and bring drum to 
           the plastic bins for recycling outside the warehouse.

   -  Handeling Returnes: 
         First action in the morning before we start packing. immediately unpack all   

Returns and destroy the original Drum box and put the returned drums in the recycling bins outside the warehouse.
The shipping staff is trained to do this, implemented Jan 10th.

    - Inventory Storage: 
         We created a new clearly marked and labeled shelving space dedicated for the xxx drums only in the warehouse.
         We are checking daily in the morning if the inventory level matches the listed inventory on amazon. implemented on Jan 10th

   -   Receiving Inventory: 
      Incoming shipment from our supplier will  be inspected:
              are all original  xxx drum boxes sealed
               was the seal tampered wit and if so the  original xxx box that was compromised will be cut up and recycled and the drum put in the recycling bin outside the warehouse
               the shipment will be immediatly unpacked and stored in the dedicated xxx drum storage shelves only.  implemented Jan 10th
              
    
     All the above steps will help make certain that our account complies with Amazon policy, to customer satisfaction by preventing shipping errors.
