Account deactivation - section 3

My account deactivated last year November 9, 2023 because of section 3 for a specific ASIN after a multiple submitted of documents fortunately my account reactivated on December 6, 2023, and I never sell that product again. My account again deactivated because of section 3 on October 9, 2024 for the SAME ASIN. I submitted the documents but amazon did that accept my account remain deactivated. I don't understand why my account again deactivated.

" I don't understand why my account again deactivated."

I will guess that you never completely deleted the problem ASIN from your inventory file.

There was a recent post by Amazon stating that merely hitting 'delete' on an ASIN in your inventory does NOT remove it entirely. It just hides it from view!

Find the suspension notice and POST THAT (the ENTIRE thing) but remove all personal information first.

Anyone answering will need to see what wording they used and what they are asking for.

If it is a Section 3 violation for dropshipping anyone responding needs to see the language to determine if it included the 'death sentence' wording.

Were there other issues such as IP violations, RA, OR, you used a Virtual Assistant and they 'helped' you with paperwork and forged documents?

NOTE -- If it was for IP, RA, OA or dropshipping you will NOT get the products or the money in your account back because you have no chain of custody and proof of authenticity.

In addition, for anyone else out there that wonders about fully removing items, this was the Amazon method solution --

Delete SKUs Using Inventory Loader

You can use the Inventory Loader to delete SKUs from your inventory. Deleting SKUs is different from deleting offerings. Product detail pages are created based on input from many sellers. Using the Inventory Loader to delete SKUs will remove your contributions to the descriptive product attributes that are rendered on product detail pages. This enables you to manage the item data associated with specific SKUs.

Delete both your offers and item data contributions.

Enter an "x" in the add-delete field in your Inventory Loader file. This will completely remove all data associated with your SKU.

Deactivate your offers without deleting item data contributions.

Enter a "d" in the add-delete field in your Inventory Loader file. When you delete offers by entering a "d" in the add-delete field, it sets your inventory for the SKUs to "0". This will make those listings show as inactive.

If you submitted a category-specific inventory file originally and want to use an Inventory Loader file to delete SKUs or make other changes to your listings, you can modify an Active Listings Report. See Use Reports to Update Inventory

Reuse of SKUs

• In general, we discourage reusing SKUs for different products. Each SKU should have a one-to-one relationship with a unique ASIN.

• Assign a new SKU to each new product being sold. This will maintain previous item data contributions that are associated with a specific SKU.

• If you do reuse a SKU, first delete the active ASIN data or you will receive an error message. To remove old associations before reusing a SKU, enter an "x" in your Inventory Loader file. This is important for sellers who routinely reuse SKUs to associate previous SKUs with new ASINs.

SIDE NOTE and personal opinion - I suspect it wouldn’t help anyway because I doubt the lawyers would ever allow complete removal of the information due to legal liabilities at some point.
