This help page still shows requirements from 2020, but I think this is what gets updated when those emails go out. < https://sellercentral.amazon.com/gp/help/200371730 > We're already 3 weeks past the start of the qualification period last year so obviously some things are changing.

flyingpig1 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 On one hand USPS is STILL a dumpster fire and it is only going to get worse for Christmas On the other hand amazon FBA warehouses are also a huge mess and can't deal with the inventory they have On third hand the shipping bottleneck is going to lead to a ton of toy shortages this Christmas even if the USPS and amazon logistics were normal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cladner Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 since this weekend i no longer see first class as a shipping option on any of my smaller set listings. i can ship the items parcel post or priority but not first class. not sure if others are seeing this but with looming downgrade in first class shipping on october 1 - https://www.businessinsider.com/us-postal-service-slow-first-class-mail-deliveries-dejoy-cuts-2021-8 - possibly a glitch on my account or amazon taking the preemptive step to cutoff first class?

First class has already slowed down. I guess they decided not to wait till October 1, but roll it out anyway. Delays of upto 5-7 days now compared to last year or earlier this year. I did read somewhere that this was under a pilot program at busy post offices. I guess my local PO is one such. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generated a First Class label from the Amazon shipping options just fine yesterday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scatttcat Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Question from a noob. I just got approved to sell via Amazon, and had the immediate slap in the face reality that I have no feedback and I am buried haha. Would it be smart to go through FBA for a few sets for some feedback growth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a bad idea to do fba just make sure you know how it works 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be smart to go through FBA for a few sets for some feedback growth? Feedback doesn’t really matter in terms of the buybox with FBA. Just price your sets accordingly. I’ve moved close to 300 units this year, I’m very small time. I’ve only gotten one single feedback post.

gmpirate Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Anyone have a link to Halloween Owl? It was there before but now I can't find it. And was there ever one for Spider & Haunted House? I don't remember 🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loghamel Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Can some of you let me know if this link is accessible? I've opened a case with the idiots at seller central and they say it can be opened. Just needing to know how many people can successfully open this link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08KHZ7146 Or, if you're hesitant to open a link, just search for ASIN B08KHZ7146. I appreciate it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ASIN you referenced comes up in the Add a product page, but clicking on that link (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B08KHZ7146) results in the error page.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bot might have identified it as dup to 40254 and removed it. Whoever created B08KHZ7146 should have put 40425 on the title. Calling it LEGO Nutcracker was just a tad lazy IMHO.

Loghamel Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Mystery solved. Thanks for the info guys. I spoke with one of the few competent associates and they said it is marked with a launch date of October 1. He then said I can validate that by clicking on the link which, obviously, didn't work. So I have no idea how I'm supposed to validate it, but it appears this item will be 'live' on 10/1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xeeeej Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 (edited) Amazon gave me a 96 hour hall pass to list Lego brand products, so I added a few exclusives that weren't in the catalog. If you have any that you want posted, PM them to me and I'll see what I can do. Include the UPC, please.

landphieran Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Amazon just requested proof of liability insurance because I reached 10k sales for this year. A response is required within 30 days. I haven't been requested to provide proof in the past. Just a heads up if this hasn't been mentioned previously.

For those sellers who make most of their annual sales in Oct/Nov/Dec this limit can be easily exceeded.
