Amazon is having us ship our cargo of 178 units cross country, from Southern California to North East USA, which is almost as far as possible 2,600+ miles. This means our shipping truck cost will be maximum expensive shipping the cargo so far.
They won't allow us to pick a closer location or shipping warehouse, even though they will also charge us $598 "placement fee" to move the items once they receive them. Seems like a total garbage system. I don't mind the placement fee that much at least if I could ship the cargo locally to one of the 150+ FBA locations in Southern California, which would be very low shipping fee.
This is the UK forum, so maybe post on the US forum instead?
This sounds crazy but note that you posted on the UK forum and you won't get much help. Try the US forum for better responses.
Hello @Seller_aYU9Ks7KFgEZT,
Here Simon from Amazon.
As your fellow sellers suggested, you might find more luck on the US Forum.
Our US moderators will be happy to help!
Best,
Simon
