Dear Amazon Team,

I’ve been selling on Amazon since 2013 — more than 13 years of serving customers with care, integrity, and pride.

I’ve never had a serious policy violation. I’ve never scammed, manipulated, or cheated. I’ve built my small business here with love. I’ve responded to every customer. I’ve fulfilled every order. I’ve earned 1,867 feedbacks, with 89% positive.

Now, I’ve been shut out of the business I built for what Amazon calls a “Code of Conduct” violation — something I never intended and acted immediately to correct.

What happened?

I listed USPS stamps I purchased from Costco. I packaged them in a jewelry box with my brand name. At the time, I genuinely believed this was allowed — it was done to make a giftable bundle, not to deceive anyone. I had no idea that this would fall under “brand abuse.”

When Amazon updated its bundling and branding policies in October 2024, I immediately deleted every listing before the change even took effect.

My last order was fulfilled on October 3, 2024. I removed everything. I didn’t argue. I didn’t fight. I just did what I thought was right.

But after all this — even after deleting everything, changing direction, submitting a new trademark, showing all receipts and history — I keep getting the same cold copy-paste response:

"We don’t have enough information.”

I gave everything.

I wrote a detailed Plan of Action.

I submitted Costco receipts, photos of packaging, my 13-year account history, proof of deleted listings, proof of new product line that is 100% compliant.

And still — nothing. No human words. No recognition that this isn’t just a store. It’s my life.

Please Help Me to Get a Chance

I’m not a bad actor. I’m not trying to game the system. I’ve done everything Amazon asked. I’ve been here since 2013. I’ve put my heart into this store. And now I’m being treated like I don’t deserve to be here anymore.

I’m begging — not as a business, but as a person — please, someone at Amazon, look at my case. Just once. Like a person would. Please read my appeal. Please read my history. Please understand that I made a mistake, corrected it, and now I want to move forward the right way.

All I want is for someone to see me — not as a seller ID — but as a person who gave 13 years to this platform with honesty and respect.

If anyone on the forum knows how to escalate this for a human review, please help. I’ve tried everything. I’ve followed every rule. I’ve submitted every document.

I just want a chance to keep doing what I’ve always done — serve customers honestly on Amazon.

Thank you for reading. I really, really hope someone listens.

Expired Products- Amazon not following own policy
by Seller_UuVZoUvxJLnaa

Hello, we have recently been hit with 6 Expired complaints. We always send in shortly after manufacturered (1-2 months) with a 10 month lifespan until it expires. Amazon has denied every one of our appeals and I am at a complete loss. I have reached out to every connection I have to get this resolved or some traction. I have spent HOURS on the phone with account health and I do exactly what they tell me to a T and it comes back rejected again. I believe there is a bug in Amazon's system and I need help geting this resolved ASAP as we are losing THOUSANDS of dollars in sales a day.

"Once products have arrived at our fulfillment centers, we monitor their shelf life to protect our customers from receiving products past expiration. Unsold inventory that passes its expiration date, or is close to exceeding the shelf life of the ASIN, is set to unsellable status. To have your unsellable products sent back to you automatically, ensure that our inventory settings are set to do so. For more information, go to Remove inventory automatically."

Amazon Takes Funds Without Transparency
by Seller_2ocdeVST6pSqj
Amazon replied

Xander_Amazon, or other Mods, over a week ago I opened a case demanding answers as to why a certain amount was deducted from the last pay out with no transparency. They called it "general account adjustment" but they can not clarify what that is. That is not telling me why the amount was taken. It is inexcusable horrible transparency. It has been transferred over and over with the same excuses, oh were contacting a different department, oh will get back with you, oh were working on it etc....just going in circles. I opened a case over a week ago and they are dragging their feet. This has to get answered, case id 17834876661. Amazon can not take money this way without documenting clear transparent reason.

Automotive Fitment Manager Access Rejected
by Seller_MYUXLlDhXQt3r
Amazon replied

Our denied access request to the "Automotive Fitment Manager" page, which displayed the following message:

"You have submitted an access request to be approved but was rejected."

Upon reviewing my previously submitted information, I realized that the rejection may have been caused by an error in the AAIA field.

During the access request submission,Maybe I mistakenly entered the company code in the AAIA field instead of the brand code.

I have already contacted the web shows E-mail And it has been a week, but I haven't received any response.

Can anyone help me solve this problem?

Thanks~God bless you!

Post scammer and intimidation messages here
by Seller_EgqSKj39qs6ob

Lets all compare notes regarding scammer and threatening messages. Please post messages that you receive, how you handled it, and what the ultimate outcome was if it has reached conclusion. Are we allowed to post the customer name too so we can connect some dots?

Below are a message I received, my response, a follow-up from the customer, and my next response.

--------

[Customer, June 11, 2025]

Hello,

I am contacting you regarding this product, which has caused an extremely serious safety concern during use. I will not disclose specific details publicly nor provide any photos or videos.

This is a formal notice that your product jeopardized consumer safety, and I am demanding an immediate, full refund.

If you refuse or delay, I will file a full A-to-Z claim, submit a product safety violation report to Amazon, and escalate to consumer protection authorities in both the US and UK.

You are hereby advised to refund this purchase immediately without conditions.

I am giving you one single opportunity to resolve this properly.

Thank you.

-----------

[My response, plus I reported as harassing and intimidation, June 11, 2025]

I am sorry you are unhappy with your purchase. Please return it for a full refund.

Regards, (my name)

------------

[customer follow up, June 17, 2025 - I marked as no response necessary and reported again as harassing and intimidation]

I am not interested in your return instructions.

This is not a normal return — this is a serious safety issue. You are legally required to take responsibility for the product you sold.

Stop avoiding liability by sending me generic instructions.

Let me make this crystal clear:

– I will NOT return the item.

– I will NOT upload photos or evidence.

– I will NOT tolerate further delay or excuses.

You have 48 hours to issue a full refund to avoid legal consequences.

If I do not receive a full refund within this timeframe, I will take the following actions:

1. Report this case to Amazon’s Legal and Fraud Department.

2. Submit all correspondence and escalate this as a safety-related violation.

3. Begin legal proceedings with my attorney, who will demand double compensation for damages and legal costs.

This is your final warning.

Refund now — no questions, no excuses.

Any further delay will be used as evidence in formal legal action.

[this was just today, no conclusion yet]

What are my options for collecting the remaining money I have left over from having my account deactivated? I have $15,000 locked up for approximately a year because I’m under the terms of a chapter 13 business agreement on Amazon. The agreement states that I sold merchandise without a letter of authorization from Samsung to sell their cellphones, which led to my account deactivation.

I’m at a loss and can’t find a way out of this situation.

I do not want to reactivate my Amazon account, I just want the funds residing inside.

Threatening customers
by Seller_EgqSKj39qs6ob

I'm looking for feedback on the best way to handle this, and is there a way to report this customer so he doesn't scam other sellers?

I sell a small ~$170 tool for testing very low voltage (5V and under), it runs on a 9V battery, is fire retardant and basically intrinsically safe. The only way someone could get hurt with it is if you threw it at them. This morning I get the message below from a customer. Clearly this is a copy/paste generic message and the customer just wants a free product. I would like to report this customer to Amazon so he doesn't scam other people, but I have zero faith that Amazon would understand anything technical and it would likely backfire on me. Has anyone dealt with a customer like this before? Here's his message:

"Hello,

Dear Cooper,

I hope this message finds you well.

I’m reaching out for assistance regarding what I believe may be a violation of Amazon’s review policies on one of my listings. I’ve emailed community-help@amazon.com multiple times, but unfortunately, I have not received any acknowledgment or a case ID in response.

Could you please advise if I am contacting the correct department, or if there’s a more appropriate channel to escalate this matter? I would greatly appreciate any guidance you can provide.

Thank you in advance for your time and support.

Best regards,

Ismael Landaverde
