Authenticity Complaint Appeal Help
Hello Sellers,
@amazon
I’ve been facing two product authenticity complaints—one with high impact (listing removed) and one with no impact (listing still active). Despite submitting complete and accurate documentation multiple times, I’m stuck in a loop with Amazon Support. Here’s what’s happened so far:
First Submission: I provided invoices, receipts, bank statements, and photos of the items, all matching the product detail page description and images. The invoices and receipts are from an authorized distributor.
Rejected: They claimed they don't accept "order confirmation details," but these are actual invoices and receipts.
Second Submission: Resubmitted with additional evidence, including bank statements showing payments to the distributor.
Rejected: "Not enough information," and they cannot disclose specifics due to "privacy reasons."
Third Submission: Included a signed letter from the distributor confirming my company purchased the items.
Rejected: Same vague response as above.
I’ve now sent this information six times. All documents are unaltered, legitimate, and directly from the authorized distributor. It seems like a robot is reviewing my submissions and not understanding the context.
I’m at a loss on what to do next. Does anyone have suggestions or contact information for an escalation point or leadership email? I need someone to review this thoroughly, as it’s severely affecting my business.
Any help or advice is much appreciated!

Do you have written authorization or approval from the brand or this company to list and or sell the products from their company? A lot of companies will authorize a supplier, but in their terms of use, you are not authorized to distribute the materials from the site they were sourced from. These suppliers are typically licensed and authorized for sale to the end consumer, no resale. I would suggest reviewing your suppliers terms of use or terms of service and work with the brand itself to obtain a letter of authorization as this will be required at this point to show proof you are an authorized distributor for the concerned brand. So you are additionally aware, if your supplier tries to issue you a letter of authorization, it will not be accepted. We will only accept an LOA if issued by the brand or rights owner only.

You will not get receipts from an authorized distributor. Did you get commercial invoices? Do they meet the standards Amazon has in sourcing in Seller University?
