Welcome to Seller Forums

I don’t even know where to start. I’ve been selling on Amazon for a while, doing everything by the book. I offer real products, ship with FBA, maintain a clean account, and I treat every buyer with respect. But none of that mattered in the end.

A buyer named Janet Payne has been repeatedly purchasing the same item from my listing. Each time, she claims "performance or quality not adequate" — but never once returns the product, never files an A-to-Z, never goes through any official complaint route.

Instead, Amazon quietly refunds her. Every. Single. Time.

Here are just a few of her orders:

202-9518971-4398749

202-4264305-1225105

202-2093544-8173138

I submitted multiple cases to Seller Support, included full documentation, confirmed shipment, and BEGGED for help. Nothing. Janet got to keep the product and the money. Again.

Funny thing is, this janet doesnt even try to hide it, its the same profile, u can see 5 orders all refunded and they are ordering more and more. i cant cancel the order cz of fba. with fbm i dont get the buy box so i removed the listing completely....

Then it got worse.

Another buyer — Michelle Sadd — began doing the exact same thing. Same product. Same excuse. Same refund.

We called her number to try to sort things out… and who picked up the phone? The same voice as Janet Payne. She told us directly to stop selling this ASIN. This wasn’t just refund abuse anymore — it felt like harassment. Sabotage.

So what did I do? I refunded Michelle myself. Out of my own pocket. Because I didn’t know what else to do. I felt trapped.

And then... Amazon refunded Janet again. After everything. After all the evidence.

I asked for a refund reversal, for my ODR to be fixed, for help.

They said no.

They let her win.

They let me bleed.

And they don’t care.

I don’t know how a platform that preaches fairness and customer obsession can let abusive buyers run wild while hardworking sellers get trampled.

I’m writing this because I don’t want to be silent anymore. If this has happened to you — speak up.

If you know someone at Amazon who cares — show them this.

Because sellers like me are drowning in silence, and nobody is listening.

hi

I have minimum and maximum price range for my product selling in UK. I wanted to use remote fulfillment by Amazon and activated other EU countries. And entered 29 Euros for each of them but when on Sweden i forgot their currency is Kr and similarly i put 29 there so it equals to 2 pounds i guess which is way lower than my COGS and FBA fees. So can i request something logical from Amazon now? When i changed my price below or above the min max prices it immediately deactivated my listings and sent me email. So why in this case they didn't do it and let it sell for 29 kr? I even contacted Amazon before the orders confirmed while they were in pending status. Now i ask for reimbursement from Amazon because they didn't take my minimum price into consideration.

I am not VAT registered but use Amazon Buy Shipping to protect ODR and i still buy CRL48 for large letters.

As several others have experienced, I have just had a claim turned down for ODR not to impacted for an item not scanned when using this.

I have a Royal Mail Click & Drop account and use BPL large letters, which also have tracking, on my other selling platforms so that I am covered by Royal Mail if I get an item not received claim.

Can anybody give me a reason why I shouldn't stop using Amazon Buy Shipping, just use my Click & Drop account and BPL large letters and ensure tracking details from BPL have transferred across and show on order?

Hi,

Could be me overthinking and over reacting as it is only 11:41am but today sales are on a different level of slow,

I have noticed the campaign dashboard has updated so I don't know if there is a change in visibility of products.

Not had any issues all week but today it is like we have fell off a cliff, anyone else experiencing the same?

Hello fellow sellers and Amazon support,

I’m reaching out to share a critical issue that’s severely impacting my business and to ask if anyone has experienced a similar situation.

Until May 1st, I was holding the Buy Box on approximately 1500–1600 listings consistently. My account health was excellent — my Order Defect Rate (ODR) was around 0.69%, well below the 1% threshold. There were no performance notifications, no account health flags, and no significant customer complaints or policy violations.

However, on or around May 1st, my Buy Box eligibility dropped suddenly to 0 across all my listings. Since then, I’ve not been able to win the Buy Box on any product, even though I am currently the lowest-priced seller on hundreds of listings.

To clarify:

My account has never been suspended or warned.

My metrics remain within Amazon’s required thresholds.

I’ve contacted Seller Support, but the only explanation I received was that the issue might be related to my ODR, which clearly was not a problem when the loss occurred.

This abrupt change with no clear reason is not only frustrating but devastating for my business, as Buy Box visibility directly affects our sales.

I’m hoping someone from the community or Amazon's support can shed some light on:

Whether there might be a system bug or recent algorithm change affecting Buy Box allocation?

What additional steps I can take to recover my Buy Box eligibility?

Any help or shared experience would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,

Dear Amazon Seller Community,

We have been submitting the required KYC verification documents to Amazon, but they keep getting rejected without a clear explanation. Despite ensuring that all details are accurate and comply with Amazon's requirements, we are unable to get our verification approved.

We are reaching out to ask:

- Has anyone faced repeated KYC document rejections?

- What steps helped you successfully get verified?

- Is there a direct contact number or email for reaching Amazon support regarding KYC issues?

Any guidance or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated. Looking forward to your support!

Best regards,

We have over 2000 listings and noticed on Amazon marketplace yesterday that some of them will be delivered 20-22 May, but some others will be delivered 20-23 May. Those with 20-23 May have disgusting red writing stating “Usually dispatched within 2 to 3 days” (I call it a sale prevention).

We have one shipping template for all of the listings (RM 2-3 days). Default Handling Time is set to 2 days, with a cut off time 3am. All listings have 2 days set individually in Handling time too. Automated handling time was activated by Amazon (AGAIN) yesterday, but I switched it off yesterday (AGAIN). Our listings this morning still don’t show this change and we have two different delivery dates across all of our listings. WHAT AM I MISSING???

Hi all,

Some of my orders are missing royal mail delivery options when using buy shipping, Next day orders do not have the option for royal mail special delivery and some standard orders are not showing 2nd class options, anyone else having issues?

Thanks
