I am an Individual Seller with a professional account based in the UK. I have just been told by an Amazon selling partner support advisor that I can only sell unwanted personal items for non profit. I do see this stated anywhere on the seller pages. He said that I need to open up a registered business first.
It doesn't state anything in regards to selling items from China or dropshipping anything on the individual seller page when you register.
What is the point of me paying 39 pounds a month if I can't sell anything besides my unwanted goods? I haven't sold anything as of it and don't plan to do so until this is all cleared up.
I have seen many videos and guides where people are importing/dropshipping items from China to the Amazon warehouse to sell. They are all individual sellers and haven't mentioned that you need a business account or a registered business to do so. However, the advisor told me that this isn't allowed in Europe.
I have also sent an email to Amazon as suggested by the advisor, but I also wanted some feedback on here.
Can someone clarify this for me please?
