DD+7 - March
by Seller_7kK4AjHi3hJE3

I will be closing my amazon seller's account when the DD+7 starts in March. Can someone give me the best, easiest steps in going about leaving the platform? I tolerate a lot with return scams, etc, but DD+7 is a bridge too far for me.

Thanks in advance.

After 7+ years selling books on Amazon, I suddenly get hit with “This product has other listing Limitations”

My account is healthy, no dings, no warnings, yet the restrictions keep piling up, especially on books.

Over time, Amazon has made it harder and harder for smaller sellers to operate. And honestly, I’m finding that I can now make just as much money on eBay as I do with Amazon FBA, without the constant friction.

Unless something drastically changes, this may be goodbye to Amazon for me.

The reality is that Amazon has grown so large that small sellers doing $100K–$150K a year simply don’t matter anymore. When I first started, selling on Amazon was actually fun. The last two years? It’s felt more like a grind than a business I enjoyed.

The good news is this won’t take my overall business down. What I’m doing today on Amazon, I’m confident I can replace, and grow, elsewhere.

Amazon will go on.

And so will we.

Is Rufus undermining Amazon sellers?
by Seller_sFmjpoQ8knrS0

We have seen a dramatic drop in sales and shopping cart abandonment. I might have found part of the problem.

When I go in as a consumer, once my product is in the shopping cart, Rufus asks if I want to see alternative options. This is terrible and defrauds sellers, like us, who spend thousands of dollars per month on PPC to get the consumer to put the product in the shopping cart. To divert consumers out of the shopping cart is mind-boggling business decision.

We have been a brand owner on Amazon for decades and I have never seen such an attempt by Amazon to undermine sellers.

SEVERE ONGOING BUYER ABUSE
by Seller_9fc460O6g3Pz6

A buyer has ordered our product 19 times and each time returned trash, sand, paper, unknown powdery substance and sticks to us. We have been reporting the buyer with the "buyer abuse" feature for several months but Amazon has done absolutely nothing about it. Each case we open tells us the same thing, use the buyer report feature. This needs to stop. The buyer uses FBA so we can't see their address to report to the authorities. We need help with this. Please we need reasonable mods to help and stop this abuse.

Thank you very much for your time and assistance. @Aria_Amazon @Xander_Amazon @Josh_Amazon @Joey_Amazon

As a Seller, your business is governed by the Meat-Grinder Rule

"Amazon regards Sellers the same way that McDonald's regards cattle: essential to its business, yet completely disposable and undeserving of any real consideration."

The Meat-Grinder Rule governs your relationship with Amazon at all times. Keeping this in mind leads to better decisions about product investment, advertising spend, avoiding reliance on Amazon as a sole sales channel, and every other aspect of a Seller's business.

Many of the complaints in this forum are the result of ignoring this rule.

Retail Arbitrage
by Seller_8UYHnTIxJNqVK

Just off a live on Tik Tok where a guy was charging only moms (yes that’s correct) Only moms a fee for a class on how to do retail arbitrage on Amazon. It’s almost sickening to know that there’s people out there scamming people. Everything he said was a complete lie. That you can buy your products from Walmart and target etc and resell it for a profit. I was livid!! To anyone who comes across this forum please do not buy courses from these people. They are literally setting you up to fail and then get suspended for not sourcing properly and taking the correct steps. Due to the fact he was targeting “moms” makes me want to call out this individual on the platform. So if you new here please go through Seller University and read it all the way through. Also if you have any doubt come to the forums and get your answer not a YouTuber who is literally scamming you to take a course to fail.

Amazon is becoming a joke. I sent out a product and customer said it did not work. Sent it back, but they did not send back my product, they sent back something totally different. Amazon automatically credited them once this product hit my mailbox. When I got the product and noticed it was not our product, I filed a Safe-T claim. The Safe-T claim only gave me 50% credit, claiming this is Amazons Policy. Total BS that someone can abuse us sellers like this and get away with it. Looking to close my Amazon. com account.
