Just When You Think Amazon Couldn’t Get Any Worse…

While doing a routine check for potential image misuse (something we face often, despite being brand registered), we discovered that Amazon US themselves are using our original product images as the main photo on one of their listings( we do not sell these laces to any other company and we full fill them ourself to USA)At first, I assumed the seller had just named themselves “Amazon US,” but Seller Support confirmed that the product is sold and fulfilled by Amazon — this is Amazon US directly using our images.

Seller Support has told me they’ll escalate the issue to an internal team, but they couldn’t tell me how or when I’ll be updated.It’s incredibly frustrating — we all put so much effort into creating high-quality, brand-consistent listings, only to find Amazon using our content without permission.

Might be worth checking Amazon US listings for any of your images being used without consent.

I see from previous messages that Amazon was working on the label issue was locked a year ago but we are new to Evri and it is happenign with us. Was there a fix as the labels can not be used when you print direct from Amazon Buy Shipping?

More and more I'm getting customers (rightly) annoyed at items (2nd class letter size) taking up to 9-10 working days to deliver. Often the replacement & original turn up on the same day - in other words, holding back mail until they have enough to 'justify' going to that address.

Yes, I offer 1st class upgrades from letters up to ParcelForce sizes. But not many are willing to pay the extra charge, especially for a low value item.

Anyone else experiencing the same?

I got a "customer" that was suspicious from the beginning. First she claimed she did not receive the order. Tracking showed it was delivered. Then she filed return requests with various reasons:

1. No longer needed 2. Accidental order 3. Unauthorized purchase 4. Item defective or doesn’t work

All in all 17 (!!) return requests. I answered to her immediately, said that I will of course refund her when I get the order back. The item in question is the most valuable thing I have ever sold in my 15 years of selling here, so I reported her to Amazon TWICE, saying that this person is trying to scam me. Her communication was extremely poor, like this:

"I don't even ask in mailbox I ask for refund thank you no DVD there I have the DVD not sent."

"The reason for returning the DVD to the mailbox thank you no items refund all good."

So, it was impossible to communicate with her. Yesterday she filed an A-Z claim. I answered to Amazon, sending proof of delivery. Amazon immediately granted the refund. I then appealed, proving again the delivery and also proving that the item was as described (another false claim from the buyer). Today Amazon decided to "uphold" their decision, because I had not responded to the buyer’s return request before the claim was filed.

To me it seems that Amazon is just trying to make new rules so that they can take my money. Should I really have responded to all 17 return requests? They are all auto-approved by Amazon with my general instructions. This person would have had already 4 weeks to return the item, but clearly she did not do anything about it.

If there is a rule that one should somehow respond to multiple return requests by the same buyer (how can one actually respond to those?), this buyer made all these multiple requests on purpose. Some morning I would have 5 return requests from her.

Besides taking my money and stealing an expensive, rare and out of print item (it is now selling for 180 euros), Amazon is counting all this against me and putting my marketplace at risk of deactivation. I sell so little that this one order means now that I have 33% defect rate.

All this doesn't seem fair to me. I am really getting tired of all this bs.
