A few questions:

  1. What sort of IP complaint? Grey import, using a brand name without permission, selling one product that infringes on the rights of another (e.g. a design right or patent)
  2. Can you prove that you haven’t infringed on anyone’s rights?
  3. Is the complaint from the rights holder?
  4. Is the complainant willing to withdraw the complaint?

I find the IP complaints on Amazon very confusing. We received a Design infringement complaint once, but it was completely spurious. Amazon still upheld the complaint and blocked us from selling that product anymore. The complaint came from a China-based seller simply sabotaging all the other sellers on a listing.

We noticed after about a month the seller abandoned the listing anyway! Thankfully we’ve since resumed selling the product without any other issues thus far.

I do fear something like this may happen again so I’ll be watching this thread with interest.
