joch29 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 looks like amazon removed strikethrough on past negative feedback and removed the statement that Amazon takes responsibility for the bad FBA experience. So far at least it looks like the negative feedback dont count towards ratings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are caught in the middle you can bankrupt your business. On 9/30/2018 at 3:21 PM, asharerin said: No we are currently sitting above 700 on our replen accounts and our Lego non-pro account has no index and we have 1000 cubic feet both standard and oversize for that so not problems at all. We always price and use PPC to dominate the buy box so always sell thru very quickly. No doubt we will sell thru every unit in FBA by 1st or 2nd week of Dec. Lots of new warehouses just coming online and it is already a giant sh*t show so we are prepping daily and shipping as much as we can Mon-Fri right now. I still fully expact alot of inventory we are sending now to be received after New Years (especially small and light). On 9/28/2018 at 6:41 PM, brickology101 said: Thank you.

odysea11 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Curious.......did anyone else receive a message about removing Friends Playground set? I'm wondering if it's because that set became an Amazon exclusive, they are thinning the FBA herd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobrakai Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 I got an e-mail about this one going restricted starting 11/17 also. I thought it used to be TRU exclusive, but maybe the old stock went to Amazon as an exclusive. Also, the Chewbacca mask that was hot a couple years ago is now Amazon exclusive and going retricted in November.

redcell Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 There are a bunch more sets that are all hard gated now. Has anyone found any that aren't currently in print and for which Amazon is not a seller on the listing? I haven't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil B Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 So have you checked to see if you are gated? Or checked any other items? Anything constructive to add to the conversation?Not sure what got you so worked up. All I did was provide names for the set numbers you posted, so that others would know what you were referring to without having to go in and look it up. Purely meant as help, no bad intentions. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's weird. I'm still ok to sell all of those. It just seems like the former TRU exclusives like Friends Playground and Jedi Hyperdrive ship are hard gated for everyone now that they are Amazon exclusives.

None of the sets are gated for me. Been selling Legos FBA since March 2016. Sold 100 k$ in 2016, 220 k$ last year and much less this year....so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redcell Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 The new gates are just for the holiday season. They will be lifted on 1/5/19. There had been some notice earlier that they were going to gate the Top 100 toys or something like that and it looks like they applied those gates more broadly.
