FBA for XMAS, is it too late?
Is it too late to send products in for Christmas sales? I know UPS are fast but when stock arrives to Amazon it takes time. Will the customer get to see the products to order before Christmas? The Covid situation is slowing things down. Am I better of selling direct?

might be worth looking at booking at collection to see on their schedules and then keep half to sell FBM just in case ?!

Some sellers are reporting a couple of weeks between the warehouse receiving the stock and it going ‘live’ on the site
are you a new seller ?

Thank you for that information. I have been trading for a few years usually via FBA during xmas.

We are still full speed sending FBA. We got hampered because our container of base items got stuck in the backlog at Felixstowe for 3 weeks
We’ve had no problems with collections as UPS comes to us every day anyway. Just keep shoveling it in!

I shipped a box on Tuesday and was selling from it yesterday…
But not all turn round quite that quick!

We sent what would normally last to January towards the end of November but had to send more in recently and tbf things seem to be moving relatively quickly for UK to UK FC about 10 days

Definitely keep sending - I mean a week would be long from sending to online and it’s still only end of November

This year FBA seems to be spot on . Currently it has taken only 3 days from collection to be listed live.
