Read onlyDid you know? Amazon's journey began in 1994 as an online bookstore, and today, books remain at the heart of our marketplace. As a book lover myself, I'd love to hear more from our book selling community! For the next few weeks, I will share a new prompt in hopes of connecting more with our amazing community of sellers.
Let’s start by learning more about your selling journey!
What inspired you to become a bookseller? 📖
Were you always a book enthusiast, or did the business opportunity lead you to this path? ✨
I can’t wait to hear about your selling adventure in the comments below! (If you don’t sell books you can still join the conversation too!)
I have attempted to leave a response multiple times and been blocked. There is NO inappropriate language in my response to you. I am a writer/editor/analyst by day. I know how to write a professional reply.
It is outrageous that anything with a negative tone is construed as inappropriate. Turn off your censors if you want a conversation.

if this is a genuine community outreach for booksellers please consider investigating and responding to any of the dozens of ongoing issues regarding the used buybox ignoring all fba offers. Thank you
due to an ongoing technical glitch that seller support refuses to acknowledge or resolve, Amazon completely destroyed hundreds of sellers by making fba used offers not eligible for the buybox in the item details page user interface. Absolutely deceptive and backhanded business practices or completely negligent and irresponsible seller support. At least one of them is true.
The featured used offers on over half of listings I sell on are currently going to Merchant fulfilled books, even when I am priced at the same or cheaper as them (I am an FBA seller). If there has been a change in the featured buy box algorithm to favor Merchant fulfilled sellers in used books please let us know or please fix this glitch
