Why can't I list this item as new ??
Got permission from a brand, and got a list of authorized distributors. For one of the products the profit margin is around 90 percent so I’m deeply interested however when I try to list it it says can’t sell as “new”. I checked the listing and there are two people selling this product as new and the 4 other sellers selling it as used. Would there be any way around this ? (Ps the brand is not on this listing they do not sell themselves on Amazon)

When you say you have permission, do you have a written letter of authorization to sell the product from the brand?

Hi @Seller_6eG9UEPogKHCo,
Dominic from Amazon here, I would be happy to help! Did you submit a case ID for this issue? If so please provide me that case ID. In addition to that do you have the proper catalog approvals to list the product?
Best,
Dominic

Is it POSSIBLE that the brand has sent Amazon a "whitelist" of approved sellers and did not have you on it?
More and more brands are providing such a "whitelist" of their approved sellers and if YOU are NOT on the list you will be stopped in your tracks and probably hit with an IP violation.
I had one of my brands stop me because they CHANGED the company they hired to screen sellers. The NEW screener did not recognize my Amazon store name because I do all my purchases under a different LLC. It took a couple weeks to get straightened out and no problems since then.
