Getting an Add to Basket to appear

I have an individual seller account (not professional) which I have had since 2018, although was inactive for a while and just started listing again. I have added the listing for a book, and there is no Add to Basket, only See all Buying Options.

No one else sells this book by the way, if that is relevant.

Can anyone recommend please the fastest most reliable way to get the Add to Basket to appear?

Do I need to do FBA? I don’t want a Professional account as I am likely to sell less than 40 per month at the beginning.

Ok that’s good.

So to get back to the original question of the buybox your options are: pay for the professional plan, or do FBA

I believe the buybox is only available to people on the professional selling plan.

I am not a book seller. But I have seen many threads on here with people complaining about how they can’t make money on books, so that is where my impression came from.

like I said originally “From what I understand the profit on books is tight enough as it is.”

I didn’t say that I was sure it was, or I had experience, I just quoted an opinion based on my understanding.

If that is incorrect then I stand corrected, obviously the many posts complaining about the profitability of books, the high fees, the low margins, the low sales volume and the mess of the catalogue have led me to the wrong conclusion.

@Julia_Amazon @Jessica

Here we are again with sellers not understanding the difference of the two ‘Individuals’, and assuming that Individual Account is same as sole-trader - which it is NOT.

Surely the ‘higher-ups’ must realise that the use of the same name causes complete confusion.
