Hey FBA sellers 👋

Quick question — have you ever paid more to ship a return back than the item was actually worth? If so, FBA Returnless Resolutions might be worth a look.

📊 The Numbers Tell the Story

Sellers enrolled in FBA Returnless Resolutions have saved an estimated $30.5 million across more than 20.6 million returnless units — that's 20.6 million items that didn't need to be shipped back. Average savings? $1.48 per unit. For categories like Furniture and Shoes, it's nearly $2–$3 per unit. *

✅ Here's when it makes sense:

  • The return costs more than the item — Paying $8–$12 to ship back a $5 product? A returnless resolution eliminates that cost entirely.
  • The item can't be resold anyway — Think perishable goods, hygiene-sensitive products, or anything that loses value once opened.
  • You want to stay in control — You choose which ASINs to enroll. Enable it for all your inventory, or upload a CSV to select up to 10,000 specific ASINs.

💡Why sellers like it:

  • Cuts return shipping, inspection, and restocking costs
  • Customers get faster resolutions — which can mean better reviews
  • You stay in full control — enable or disable anytime, changes take effect immediately
  • The high return rate fee is not charged for returns successfully processed through FBA Returnless Resolutions
  • Amazon uses the same guardrails to detect and prevent misuse that it uses for its own orders
  • No program fees — there's no cost to enroll

🔒Built-in protections for sellers

Not every return qualifies for a returnless resolution. Amazon maintains eligibility criteria for both sellers and customers — only eligible customers are offered returnless resolutions on your behalf. Products with an average sales price (ASP) greater than $75 are excluded, along with hazmat, recalled products, heavy/bulky items, and gift cards.

Amazon continuously monitors to prevent fraud, abuse, and misuse of the FBA Returnless Resolutions program. The guardrails protecting this program are the same ones Amazon has used for years on its own products and you benefit from those same protections.

⚙️How to set it up:

  1. Go to Settings → Fulfillment by Amazon
  2. Scroll to FBA Returns Evaluations & Ownership Settings
  3. Click Edit next to Returnless Resolutions
  4. Choose to enable for all ASINs or upload a CSV with specific ASINs
  5. Click Update — changes take effect immediately

📚Helpful Resources

💬Have You Tried It?

Has anyone here enrolled in FBA Returnless Resolutions? We'd love to hear:

  • 💰 How much are you saving on low-value returns?
  • 📦 Which product categories have you found it works best for?
  • ⚙️ Did you enable for all ASINs or select specific ones?

Try it and let us know how it's working for you! 👇

Hi everyone, I'm Sarah, Founder of Sarah Wells Bags. I've been selling on Amazon since 2013, and if I had to name one thing that's moved my business forward outside of the daily work, it's showing up to Amazon's seller events in person.

I know not everyone can travel, and plenty of value comes from right here in the forums. But when I can be in the room, a few things happen that are hard to replicate from behind a screen.

First, I get problems unstuck. At Amazon Accelerate, the Seller Café is set up for exactly this. You can bring a real question about your account, your listings, or your strategy and talk it through with someone in person. I always walk in with my questions written down ahead of time so I don't waste the chance. A short conversation has sorted out things for me that a string of cases couldn't.

Second, I meet the people behind the programs I use. Getting face time with team members across different parts of Amazon helps me see how the pieces fit together, and it gives me a real person to picture when I'm working through something later. Those connections have made me a sharper seller.

Third, and maybe most underrated, I learn from other sellers. Some of my best ideas have come from hallway conversations with people who had already worked through the exact thing I was stuck on. Sellers are generous with what they know, and being in the room gets you access to that.

If you're on the fence about going to one of these events, my honest take is that the connections and the problem solving are worth the trip on their own, before you count a single session.

On that note, the Seller Growth Summit is this week and I'll be there (and speaking during the first session-so excited). And I'm already looking ahead to Accelerate in September. Who else is planning to go? Drop a comment with the event you'll be at and your product category, and let's start a list of who to look for once we arrive. Half the value is knowing who's in the room.

Just curious if anyone is also having same issue. Just checked prices at inventory, then when main Amazon page opens, ALL competitor's offers are not showing, zero. This issue does not happen on mobile app, which shows all offers.

Maybe this isn't new and we're just now noticing, when a customer contacts Amazon now with an issue they're just handing out refunds.

We had a random refund for return to seller that was actually delivered, we only noticed because the customer purchased again and contacted us for a different shipping carrier. Support instructed us to file a Safe T claim and we got a refund. That's great I guess but just another problem to watch for, but that isn't the issue here it just led to the rest.

We then decided to check our transactions filtered for refunds only and found two more refunds where Amazon decided to just give our money away. It's a food product that isn't returnable, typically in the past if there is an issue Amazon will send us a message and we will work it out with the customer.....worst case scenario a claim is filed. None of that happened they just gave them a refund without warning or any communication. We contacted support and they gave us conflicting reasons in the same reply for the refund with these lovely instructions:

- Packaging: Ensure robust inner packaging for food products. Even if outer packaging survives transit, the contents inside can be damaged if not properly cushioned or separated.

- Product Quality: Inspect items before shipping to confirm they are not expired, leaking, or defective.

- Photographic Evidence: Take photos of products before packaging and during the packing process. This documentation strengthens SAFE-T claims if a refund is issued later.

- Buyer Communication: Proactively communicate with buyers through Buyer-Seller Messaging after delivery to address any issues before they contact Amazon Customer Service. Resolving issues directly with the buyer protects your account health.

- Listing Accuracy: Ensure your product listing accurately describes the item (ingredients, quantity, size, condition) to avoid "Item not satisfactory" claims due to mismatched expectations.

- Monitor Returns Dashboard: Regularly check your Returns and Recovery: Insights and Opportunities dashboard in Seller Central to monitor return/refund patterns and identify recurring issues.

Totally ridiculous, we're now being told how to ship things, to take pictures during the process and a lecture about communication when there was none!

Both FBM both shipped Amazon Buy shipping delivered as normal, just randomly refunded. So now apparently all a customer has to do to get a full refund is contact Amazon. No messages, no claims.....just free product.

I'm going to file claims but I doubt that will do anything here.

I am FBM.

75% (almost on the dot) of my sales come from NOT being the featured offer. Customers have to click the See All Buying Options to buy from me 75% of the time. As of this morning, that button is now gone. I am effectively invisible to customers unless I am in the buy box. IF this is new policy - you just put a 7 figure account out of business.

All my skus still show Active on my Manage All Inventory page, but as explained above, the offer is invisible to customers. Amazon, at the time of writing this, is now Buy Box only offers.

I pray this is just a technical issue and not policy. Need to hear from others.

Inform Consumer's Act
by Seller_I3Ym9QGqe6u9N

I’m curious if other sellers felt the same way about this year’s INFORM Consumers Act re‑verification.

I understand the law and I understand Amazon has to comply, but the way the notification was delivered felt unnecessarily alarming. My information hasn’t changed, my account is healthy, and I’ve been selling here for decades yet the messaging came across like a major compliance threat instead of a routine annual check.

The tone, the yellow banners, and the “your account may be at risk” wording seem out of proportion to what the law actually requires. It caused a cortisol spike for something that should be simple and straightforward.

I hope Amazon considers softening the language next year. Sellers shouldn’t feel panicked when nothing is wrong and nothing has changed. A clearer, calmer notification would go a long way toward reducing unnecessary stress.

Has anyone else felt this way?
