You must initiate a removal request within 30 days of receiving this notice to have your inventory sent to a location of your choice.

Interesting… well it’s about time.

Unfortunate for consumers relying on supply of these for legal purposes… ahem.

Well, this ought to dent the logistics of many… “trappers” lol.

Products associated with drugs and controlled substances

  1. Mylar bags, which are not clear or single colored

Drugs & drug paraphernalia

What @Dogtamer said, apparently somebody realized that drug dealers sell dope in these sometimes.

I’m thinking that Amazon is using the “single-colored” term to strip out bags with drug-type lettering, names, or graphics. Just guessing. They just made the prohibition as wide as possible to give themselves the widest enforcement options possible. There are laws against selling drug paraphernalia and a bag with illicit drug images may violate them.

Just guessing.

Who scared Amazon? Why? I get that some part of the population uses the bags for their smell proofness.

But Amazon is still going to allow the sale of the bags as long as they are clear or one color. I do not care what is put in the bag. I do not partake. It may not be condoned by the federal government but may be legal in like 38 states.

You can soon only buy a clear bag or a bag in one of 10 million colors. But if someone wanted to sell a bag with the American Flag on it…banned.

Again, ignore what goes into the bag, the bag is still allowed to be sold. I would assume that it can still be promoted for all of the merits the bag provides.

I hope I see this on the news soon. I cannot sell my product with my logo or even the American Flag printed on it via Amazon.

I need a more upscale dealer who uses fancy bags. My dealer puts paraphernalia in clear ziplock.

I do get some tea in mylar bags though.
