📦 Resell Returns: FBA Grade and Resell Expands to Apparel & Shoes
by Seller_OOVUXZLmb2UEH

Good news Apparel and Shoes sellers!

Are you ready to unlock a new revenue stream? We're excited to announce that Apparel and Shoes are now eligible for FBA Grade and Resell! This program allows you to recover value from customer-returned inventory by reselling items as "Used".

How It Works

The program automatically evaluates your unfulfillable customer returns and creates “Used” listings on your behalf. You'll maintain control over pricing and inventory management, just as you do with your new items.

Through Grade and Resell, you can resell your returned inventory in four different conditions:

  • Used – Like New
  • Used – Very Good
  • Used – Good
  • Used – Acceptable

You determine the price for reselling these items, helping you reduce liquidation and return costs.

Pricing

💰 Processing fees start at $1.50* for standard-size items, based on item size and weight.

📚 For more information, go to FBA Grade and Resell help page.

We Want To Hear From You

Have you considered using FBA Grade and Resell for your Apparel and Shoes inventory? What potential benefits do you see for your business? Share your thoughts below!

⚠️ Important: Urgent: Inventory Restock Limit Issue — Only 10 Days of Stock Left (Case ID: 1872729781)
by Seller_zrARrLB10wSjH
Amazon replied

@Seller_zukQNO61PzGck @Seller_xkwDczt8sPSmx @Seller_khUF6HPR2AHxu @Seller_FJwyF3iu5qxUY @Seller_WD80mtpYHjvBN@Seller_YeWcEeTwlVO93

I’m facing an urgent issue with one of my best-selling ASINs. The system shows that the maximum inventory limit has been reached, but in reality, our current inventory will only last about 10 days based on recent sales performance.

We’ve already submitted an ASIN block exemption request and opened a support case (ID: 1872729781), but unfortunately, neither has resolved the issue.

Since this ASIN sells very well, we’re really concerned that the stock will run out soon, and not being able to replenish could cause a major sales disruption.

Has anyone experienced this before or found a way to fix it? Any suggestions or insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your help!

DD+7 March 12, 2026
by Seller_ir2sdQjTkfjTh
Amazon replied

I received this today from Amazon:

On March 12, 2026, in line with your feedback, we’ll update your reserve settings to the standard reserve period of seven days after delivery date (DD+7).

Most Amazon sellers worldwide already use DD+7. Moving your reserve setting to DD+7 provides time for you to accrue fees and other costs before disbursement and gives your customers time to receive, open, and evaluate their order.

DD+7 aligns the customer order and payment cycle, with funds made available for disbursement seven days after we confirm order delivery. For example, if you sell a product on January 1 and it’s delivered on January 3, then under the DD+7 policy, your funds for that order will become available for disbursement on January 11.

When you ship an order, funds are collected and added to your deferred transaction amount. Upon delivery, funds become reserves to allow Amazon customers to receive and review orders and you to accrue fees and costs. After seven days, the funds are moved into your account balance, which can be disbursed automatically through your choice of the automatic settlement cycle or a once daily disburse-on-demand request.

The move to DD+7 may cause a one-time cash flow impact and temporarily limit your ability to disburse funds on or around your migration date. This is because of the change to delivery confirmation before the reserve period begins.

We recommend that you review your cash reserves to ensure sufficient funds on hand during the transition. This update will affect you more if you have longer periods between order and shipping or shipping and delivery.

__________________________

So we now use Amazon shipping, Amazon extends 30 day invoicing whether we want it or not, we ship using Amazon shipping, we stand in line every day and have every package scanned individually, and we still won't be paid until 7 days after the package is delivered?

We're now responsible for USPS and UPS delays?

Used FBA book offers no longer eligible to become buybox - shadowbanned even with lowest price
by Seller_KoqAFvxBwjdZB
Amazon replied

@Seller_zukQNO61PzGck

This issue has come up yet again. Even if a used fba book offer is the lowest price it is not being displayed as the used featured offer effectively shadowbanning them. Can we please investigate what is going on this time? Last time Amazon and the mods collectively were not very good at communicating with the sellers

Maybe you were all right to warn me...
by Seller_ElNLVxVohDOit

So, a few months ago I decided to give FBA a try, in order to take care advantage of Prime delivery and free up my schedule a little. The flexibility was attractive, because I wouldn't spend my mornings packing and shipping. But everywhere I turn, the fees are adding up - I just got my first storage estimate of $125 which I guess isn't horrible, compared to some (I have a number of SKU's but they are physically pretty small.) But still, I'm a small shop, $125 isn't pocket change. I don't know if that's all-inclusive though, I have a lot of items that are still new.

I do want to have things in stock and available for Prime, but it seems pretty clear I'm going to have to review my top sellers, bring a bunch of stuff back to the shop, and ship them myself again. Luckily, most of my items don't consume much space.

I did FBM almost two years, and never saw the volume of returns that I see with FBA...and losses for customer-damaged items are starting to add up also. And when I send things in for stock, I count them three times at various points in the process, only print the exact number of labels that I need, and the warehouses STILL have miscounts half the time.

There's a reason I like to have control over things, and I'm being reminded why that is. Now, I'm faced with putting things on clearance because removal fees are more than my COGS in the first place.

Overall, I wouldn't say it's been a horrible experience, but it hasn't been awesome either.

Anyone else have unknown people selling your product on Walmart and then placing an order on your Amazon Seller Acct to fulfill that Walmart order
by Seller_t4FDgJNH07ARb

We noticed recently that 2 of our items are being sold on Walmart - it's not us doing it. The owner of our company placed an order on Walmart to see if someone was copying our product. Minutes later we got an order on Amazon, to our owner's address but the buyer name and phone is unknown to us. SO it looks like someone is selling our product on Walmart and then fulfilling the orders through our Amazon. We have made a claim to Walmart as this activity is not authorized by us - but would Amazon want to know of this also?

Sadly - I will have to cancel this order from my side and get dinged for a cancellation by Amazon but this is clearly some kind of scam.

AMAZON CREATED A NEW SKU FOR FOUND INVENTORY - FIRST IT WAS FOUND, THEN IT WAS DEFECTIVE, THEN A REMOVAL WAS CREATED INSTEAD OF PUTTING THE INVENTORY BACK IN MY TOP SELLING PRODUCT
by Seller_LpeTNZ7j7ivr8
Amazon replied

https://sellercentral.amazon.com/cu/case-dashboard/view-case?ref=sc_cd_lobby_vc_v3&ie=UTF&caseID=18687443731

AMAZON CREATED A NEW SKU FOR SUPPOSED FOUND INVENTORY - INSTEAD OF PUTTING THE FOUND INVENTORY BACK IN MY PREVIOUSLY CLAIMED LOST INVENTORY - NOW AMAZON WANTS TO PIECE MAIL ME OVER 25 UNITS ONE AT A TIME BECAUSE THEY CREATED A REMOVAL ORDER INSTEAD AND CHARGE ME EACH TIME THEY RETURN IT. NOT ONLY THAT, THEY SEND THE INVENTORY BACK TO ME IN HUGE BOXES THAT ARE 100 TIMES BIGGER THAN MY PRODUCT. IN EFFORTS TO REMEDY THE "FOUND INVENTORY" I CONTACTED SELLER SUPPORT, THEY THEN INDICATED THAT MY INVENTORY WAS DEFECTIVE DUE TO MISSING LABELS. THEN SENT ME IMAGES OF MY ACTUAL LABELED INVENTORY! THIS DID NOT WORK, SO THEY DECIDED TO CREATE A REMOVAL ORDER FOR ALL THAT "FOUND" INVENTORY, WHICH I DID NOT WANT, AND BY THE WAY IS ONE OF MY BEST SELLERS, INSTEAD OF PUTTING MY PREVIOUSLY "CLAIMED LOST" INVENTORY BACK INTO MY PRODUCTS FOR SALE AND REVERSING THE REIMBURSEMENT!

THIS IS SERIOUSLY SCANDALOUS AND IS NOW COSTING ME THE SELLER, MORE TIME, MORE MONEY, RECONCILIATION ISSUES, REPORTING ISSUES, ETC. HOW IS THIS GOOD BUSINESS AMAZON? YOU ALREADY LET PEOPLE WHO BUY PRODUCTS AND THEN MAKE FALSE RETURN CLAIMS AND GET RETURNS ON PRODUCTS THAT THEY PURCHASE JUST BECAUSE THEY DECIDED THEY DID NOT WANT IT. WHEN IS AMAZON GOING TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MESSES THEY CREATE FOR US SMALL BUSINESS PARTNERS????? WE ARE YOUR BACKBONE!!!
