Ungating invoice(s) - 200 units
To ungate, we were told to provide an invoice from our distributor/manufacturer, within the last 180 days, of at least 200 units of the product. My question is, can the 200 units be the combined purchase from multiple invoices? We rarely buy more than 30 units from our distributor at a time given the price, so can we send in multiple invoices that, when added up, equates to 200+ units? These are all within the specified 180 day timeframe, but just wondering if more than 1 invoice to show the collective 200+ units is permissible. Thanks anyone for your assistance!

More and more often invoices are only PART of the issue and they do NOT ask for the second part until there is a problem.
You may be confusing AMAZON allowing you to list (or at least "ungate") an item or category and actually being APPROVED to sell a product. Amazon might ungate you for a CATEGORY, but there can be 100's of brands in the category and they ALL have their own restrictions.
AMAZON is only interested in FEES. They will allow a chimpanzee to list if it means they collect $$$$$.
Additionally, brands that you COULD sell yesterday may be restricted today or next week. Amazon is a moving target to deal with.
DO YOU have an LOA from the brand allowing you to sell on here?
If you have an LOA that specifically says you can sell on Amazon you MIGHT survive listing items.
More and more brands are providing a "whitelist" of their approved sellers and if YOU are NOT on the list you will be stopped in your tracks and probably hit with an IP violation.
