Difference between a "normal" FBA product and homemade?

I’m familiar with selling on FBA, in the normal categories, but on a totally different account.

Now I have homemade set of products and have been accepted into Homemade.

I understand you can not convert a homemade product to a normal product or vice versa, but you can (I think?) send in homemade products to FBA.

So I’m wondering what the main difference is?

Will homemade products still show up in the normal listings? Example, for “pillow cover” - will there be both homemade and normal products shown side by side?

Or is there a totally separate shop, like an Amazon-Etsy, that people need to look in to find my homemade products?

Sorry if this has all been covered before… :wink:

Short answer, yes.
I sell in both Handmade & regular.
Handmade did have a problem with visibility (way down the search results), but it’s a lot better now.
If I did a search for me (items are under my name and business name), you’d get a mixture of the Handmade and the not Handmade.

Just to note that you didn’t need a new account to sell in handmade

Good answer - thank you. Both aspects (ranking and selling normal / handmade products together) are as I’d hoped they might be.
