Hit the 👍 thumbs up if you've experienced any of these struggles with Amazon as a small business owner:

6️⃣ Fraudulent buyer claims where customers get refunds and keep the item.

7️⃣ Return requests months later that shouldn’t even qualify for returns.

9️⃣ Getting negative reviews for things outside your control, like carrier delays.

🔟 Sky-high fees making it feel like you're working for Amazon, not yourself.

1️⃣1️⃣ Having to cut prices to the bone just to win the Buy Box.

1️⃣2️⃣ Unhelpful, copy-paste support responses that solve nothing.

1️⃣3️⃣ Amazon's A-to-Z Guarantee favoring buyers, even if they lie.

1️⃣4️⃣ Unfair performance metrics that don't reflect the effort you put in.

1️⃣5️⃣ Receiving policy violation warnings without any clear instructions.

1️⃣6️⃣ Issues with inventory reimbursement delays—or never getting reimbursed at all.

1️⃣7️⃣ Amazon forcing you to compete on ads just to get seen by customers.

1️⃣8️⃣ Suspicious fluctuations in sales that feel like shadow banning.

1️⃣9️⃣ Customers abusing free shipping and return perks at your expense.

2️⃣0️⃣ Seeing your hard work get crushed while Amazon profits off your struggles.

2️⃣1️⃣ Feeling like Amazon only cares about buyers and big brands—not small sellers.

If any of this hits home, smash that 👍 thumbs up and let’s make our voices heard. 💪 Let’s see how many of us feel the same way!

Hello fellow sellers,

I am extremely frustrated and need urgent help regarding a serious issue with Amazon’s warehouse.

I sell a product with black packaging, and the manufacturing and expiration dates are printed in black. The dates are clearly printed by the factory following standard procedures. However, Amazon’s warehouse staff wrongly labeled my product as expired and blocked me from selling it.

🚨 The most outrageous part? 🚨

Amazon’s email stated that if I don’t create a removal order by 02/22/2025, they will dispose of my inventory. But today is 02/15/2025, and they have already started destroying my products! This is a clear violation of their own deadline and an unfair loss for me as a seller.

🔹 My supplier confirmed that the dates are clearly visible and were never covered by any labels.

🔹 The Chinese warehouse staff who labeled the product followed all Amazon requirements.

🔹 Amazon seller support keeps telling me to "wait" while my inventory is being thrown away!

‼️ Is this another case of Amazon mistreating Chinese sellers? ‼️

My product follows all regulations, but the warehouse staff assumed it was expired without proper verification.

Is it because I’m a Chinese seller? Would they have done this to a Western seller?

Why is Amazon not following their own deadline and disposing of inventory early?

I have already opened a case, but seller support is completely unhelpful. I am considering escalating this issue to seller-performance@amazon.com and jeff@amazon.com, but I need advice from experienced sellers.

💬 Has anyone dealt with a similar situation?

💬 How can I stop Amazon from destroying the rest of my inventory?

💬 What is the best way to escalate this?

Any help is greatly appreciated! We need to stand up against unfair treatment! 🚨

Hello fellow sellers,

I am facing a critical issue with Amazon’s fulfillment process, and I desperately need help, advice, and support from the seller community.

Amazon lost 82 units of my inventory, sold them, and now refuses to reimburse me—despite clear proof that they received them. To make matters worse, I took out a loan to fund this inventory, and now I am receiving legal notices for missed payments because Amazon is refusing to take responsibility.

📦 Shipment & ASIN Details:

📑 Case ID: 16914769221

🏷 FNSKU: X004EAJ1Z3

🛒 ASIN: B0DH4WW8JS

❌ Total Missing Units: 82

What Happened?

Amazon is claiming that these units were "unexpected" in my shipment plan, but this is completely false.

✅ My shipping plan clearly included these units—Amazon’s own support agents have confirmed this.

✅ The inventory was checked in, processed, and even made available for sale.

✅ Prime orders were placed and shipped from this inventory.

Yet, after 75+ days of fighting, Amazon keeps closing my case without a resolution.

Why This is a HUGE Problem for Sellers

This is not just a mistake—it is a serious failure of Amazon’s fulfillment process. If Amazon can lose inventory, sell it, and then refuse to compensate sellers, what protection do we have?

I have already:

➡️ Opened multiple cases with Seller Support (they keep closing them).

➡️ Provided all necessary evidence (shipment plan, tracking, proof of check-in, proof of sales).

➡️ Escalated to higher support tiers (still no resolution).

Now, because of Amazon’s mistake, I am facing legal action for missed loan payments.

🚨 CALL TO ACTION: I NEED HELP FROM SELLERS!
