For sure you need to have inventory that either turns quickly OR has a big enough margin to absorb the fees. If you are caught in the middle you can bankrupt your business.

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).

Thank you. 

Arent you concerned about sending all your Q4 inventory now with regard to the new Inventory Index ?

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.

When do you guys usually send out your inventory for the holidays? Now's the best time?

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.

That list was done like that to make it easier to check those numbers to see if you can list, but I guess you missed that with the passive aggressive poor memory game.

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.

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.

Yeah, I am gated too for the hyperdrive and friends playground. None left to sell so it is ok for me.
