They are from those dates up until items I have listed today. If this in some way compromises my Amazon account, then I will be part of whatever class action needs to happen. This is price fixing plain and simple. These are not necessary items like food, water, medical supplies, batteries, etc. I can price them however I want and customers can buy them or not. This is absolutely insane and I have to believe any legal challenge to this would undo it. I am sooooooo sick of how we have been treated the last 2 years between the FBA shutdown during covid, the loss of sfp, pricing errors and other bs designed to get rid of us. Is there even a base for a lawsuit? Pretty sure in TOS we gave Amazon permission to treat 3PS like crap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Twain Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Had an FBA return marked "Defective or Damaged Prior to Shipping" and the deposition was marked as "Defective" upon receiving the return. From the customer comment it is pretty clear this was carrier damaged crushed in a shipping bag (shocker!). I created a removal order. Do I escalate this to management upon filing a claim? Disposition Defective Customer return reason Product damaged or defective prior to shipping Customer comment: The box was in a shipping bag and was crushed. I did not open the box, but I can't use it as a gift because it looks like it has been around for years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a regular occurrence for me and I've never been able to get them to reimburse me for one. I mostly don't even try anymore but I do every now and then just so I can get upset.

I'm still showing a Sesame Street from Christmas that is stranded because they closed the listing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmpirate Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 A lot of the decisions are made by who is ever on the floor at the time. I receive purchased items in bags, they ship some of my FBA in bags, they mark items as "unsellable" even though they are still in brand new condition, they will sell items in damaged condition while telling me some of my items are not acceptable. I recently bought 25 small lego sets from FBA 3rd party and they all came in a pristine shipping box. 20 of the sets were all crushed, ripped, dented, smashed, etc. It's their company, they can do what they want, but they "should" at least practice what they preach and direct us to do. But they don't. They have their own separate set of rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brickology101 Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 I got a question for the pros at selling on Amazon.com. I can list Lego sets in a few frustration free packaging (FFP) categories. I am selling FBA only. Do I need to provide the FFP like shipping each set to the fulfillment center inside their original Lego box ? Nothing in the listing process on Amazon.com suggests I should ship the sets any different than the rest. Like they say Ignorance is bliss. I sold a few sets in these categories over Christmas and nothing abnormal came from these transactions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like if you list under the 6 pack of something you can't send a single item. That said, will the average consumer know or care what frustration free means and will you get a complaint? Odds are slim to none. Personally I only send in true frustration free packaging if I am using that listing.

Is a regular box sufficient or does it have to be exactly like the Lego shipping box ? Unfortunately, I got the rid of these Lego shipping boxes as I have no room for them. They can’t be folded easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donbee Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Frustration free is a specific box. It is sealed and has a product label. More and more sets are being offered FF, so more and more people are getting familiar with it. Especially collectors. If I pay an extra $20-30 for an FF box, it better be. If you want to gamble with it go for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coelian Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Just an FYI, I once received a pancaked FFP box shipping in an amazon carton. Whilst it may improve your chances of getting a well packaged set there is no guarantee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cladner Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 (edited) i sold through 22x 20th anniversary slave1s last month for $279-285 FBM under the FFP listing which was pricing higher than the standard listing. i did not ship them in a lego box. i shipped them inside a new plain 20x16x4 box wrapped in small bubble wrap with extra cardboard strips along the top and bottom to prevent denting. i sold through all of the "white label" euro imports. grandma doesn't care as long as it arrives in good shape. zero returns on this set which is pretty amazing actually. ymmv since easter shopping is over and only jerky nitpicky collectors are buying now until graduation season. i also sold a megaconstrux uss enterprise for $399 fbm which is also pretty amazing.

flyingpig1 Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Umm, 15 listings I'm selling on got taken down today and are showing as 'Restricted ASIN' under stranded inventory.

brickology101 Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Are these listings FBM or FBA ? I have an FBA shipment in transit and so far none of the listings included in that shipment are shown as stranded but that could all change very shortly. Can you share a few of the Lego set numbers that have become restricted so I can check on my end.
