Since I discovered that one of my child SKUs was classified as a weapon, I have been actively contacting Amazon support. However, the response is always the same:
"The sale of 'Kubotans' or tactical pens that can be used as a 'Kubotan' is prohibited on Amazon.co.uk. We leveraged a combination of automated means to identify this issue and to make this decision."
I have been trying to understand what the specific issue is, but I keep receiving the same reply. Yesterday, another one of my child SKUs was also removed, and at the same time, my account health was put at risk.
I’ve been trying to analyze my product and noticed that many other sellers in the same category are offering similar items. For example, there are products resembling a giant hammer or those that look like long spikes, which are still available. Therefore, I am unable to understand why my product is being classified as a weapon.
I am reaching out to sellers with similar experiences for help or hoping that Amazon’s support team can provide me with clear guidance. I have also uploaded images of my product here for reference.
Thank you for your attention!
