We are trying to create an FBA shipment and for many ASINs we get the error message "You already have high days of supply for this ASIN in our fulfillment centers. This product must be removed from this shipment."
It seems like this shows for any ASIN amazon determines has a total days of supply of more than 120. How can amazon implement this without even thinking this through. The ASIN is completely blocked from being sent, Amazon should know full well that shipments sent by sea can sometimes take 8-12 weeks to arrive and then up to another 60 days for the inventory to go through warehouse transfers before it's even available to be purchased by customers, by this time the ASIN would have much lower than 120 days of supply, so why has Amazon blocked sellers from sending their own inventory? It seems like they are forcing sellers to use AWD but they havent thought it through at all especially for sellers who sell clothing where AWD for many ASINs is not practical since you can only have single SKU boxes for AWD.
Then there's also the issue of the majority of sellers who pack their shipments and then use that information to upload to Amazon only to find Amazon has blocked them of sending certain ASINs and so you can't even proceed with the shipment. What are sellers expected to do, go into every single box and remove ASINs which they think shouldn't be sent based on their silly days of supply calculation which isn't even accurate for seasonal products and products which may be pushed heavily at the sellers own discretion from sponsored ads.
The whole thing is a complete mess. Anyone got any information about this?
