Selling 1st Item
I want to sell used intel processor but I dont have an EAN or UPC number. I purchased it from the vendor but does not have an invoice. How do I sell this and can anyone share their experience or work around, many thanks.

Sorry to be blunt, but sell it elsewhere ! Without an EAN or UPC you won't be able to list it correctly on Amazon. Also, 'work arounds' are NOT the best idea on Amazon. All just IMO. When you say 'purchased from the vendor', what exactly do you mean ? - from the company ?
As you say this is your first item, you need to read thoroughly Amazon's Seller University - tells you all you need to know about selling on Amazon. Presumably this is a new seller account ? - and hopefully you opened a BUSINESS Seller Account - which is what you need to sell goods for profit, and are you registered with HMRC as self-employed (possibly sole-trader) ?
Selling on Amazon is not just about buying some goods and then selling them on - there is a lot more to it.

Thanks jillyb yes it is exactly the same and when I spoke to customer service rep, one said it will take 72 hours and other said it will take 24 hours. However, I will wait for 24 hours for the changes I made, and hopefully I will have a successful listing tomorrow. if I need some understanding on complicated issue, i would post for some experience response, thanks!

thank you thirtythreeandathird, when i enter Intel it says i need an approval and ask me submit invoices, I have submitted the invoice and it says it will give me a response by 17 april. However, I tried with another product, insted of selecting a brand name I selected generic and it allowed. I choose from the similar product listed and listed my item, but when I go to the page it says currently unavailable. I spoke to representative and they ask me to wait for 24 hours.

and another thing is when I click on See all buying options that where it is listed as IlfordPC available for delivery but not on the mainpage

Is the product you are listing as Generic ACTUALLY Generic though?
Seller_ZJhFeE3tNKzfh
No. The Featured Offer only becomes available to sellers after they have built up a sales history.

but how will the customer see my product if it doesn't reflect on the main page.
Seller_ZJhFeE3tNKzfh
You have to hope customers know to look on the other sellers tab. Not all will do that - but enough will.
All sellers have had to start and go through this step.
You can generate a link if you find the product from your seller profile that will make it look like you hav the featured offer.
You could use this link off amazon (eg social media) to advertise your product on amazon.

thanks so much for the valuable answer that really help me understand this features.
If you dont mind if I ask another question, I listed another product however I received an approval from Intel to list the product so I want to list a processor, and I successfully did and it is reflecting on my inventory, however, when i click on that there is no pictures of mine nor price atleast. it has other seller details from where I copied the listing, and not even a option to buy or see all buying options available. can you provide some light if you have experience the same.

If you are listing against an existing ASIN - you need to understand that Amazon is a catlogue system. Its not like ebay where you have your own listing.
So the images should only really be changeable by the brand owner. Which is most likely to be Intel.
If you don't appear in the Other buying options box, it is possible amazon are testing on that listing and hiding any listings that have a high price point.
If you wanted to share the ASIN of the product - can take a look

Thank you so much for the information, I am now able to see in other seller options. Here is the ASIN B0BB7ZJQR6.
Thank you once again, how do i know make sure my chances of featured and customer able to see and buy. I am providing the best price in the market.

Also how do I use my own images and make sure I am in the featured list as I am giving the best price.
