Hi Sellers,

I’ve been reading policies and watching videos on Seller University regarding Amazon’s policies on Retail Arbitrage. I’ve also read posts on seller forums, where many sellers claim that it is no longer allowed on Amazon.

However, Amazon has clearly stated on their website that it is allowed "https://sell.amazon.com/blog/reselling"

If Amazon’s officially acknowledges retail arbitrage as a legitimate reselling model then how can they expect Letter of Authorizations or Supply chain documents from sellers when it comes to suspension.

This raises a question: How can a retail arbitrage seller provide a Letter of Authorization if their model is based on purchasing from retail stores?

This creates a frustrating situation:

✅ Amazon publicly recognizes retail arbitrage as a legitimate business model.

❌ But enforcement teams frequently reject invoices and request documentation arbitrage sellers don’t have.

Sellers need clearer policies and fair enforcement. If Amazon acknowledges arbitrage as valid, they should also ensure that invoices from well-known retailers are accepted without requiring documents that contradict the business model.

Let’s discuss and find ways to bring attention to this issue.

I have a Question about Arbitrage.

Did Amazon allow seller to do online arbitrag

( Arbitrage we buy a product from a retail store and then we send it to the Amazon FBA warehouse.)

But in Arbitrage we have a reciept and order confirmation email we dont have invoice.

Can anyone can help me to figure out the amazon policy about Arbitrage.

Thank You

Hi everyone, I'm new to this business. I started late last year now I'm. Starting to get a few sales here and there. I have PL & Arbitrage andy account so far, and I'm looking to add wholesale soon. My main goal is PL ,but I'm just added Arbitrage and wholesale to get a few extra dollars to build up my sales so I can gain more funds to take my (PL) further.. Question, which business model is more profitable, Arbitrage or wholesale? How long does it take to gain 4-5 sales daily in (arbitrage and Wholesale)? How long does it take for my first payout from seller central?

Thanks a lot.
