I have just been checking my inventory and have noticed many books being suppressed as they require approval to sell. (Take note, Amazon, books are published, and do not have a BRAND)

Firstly, they are secondhand books, therefore the principle of first sale doctrine applies and I don't need approval.

Secondly, when I look at the suppressed listings, I have found several of them are already inactive (although the listings screen doesn't tell me that) - if I had re-listed them then I wouldn't have them in stock - why are Amazon suppressing inactive listings?

Thirdly, has anyone had any joy with getting approved without submitting invoices (which would be impossible as I am not buying from the publisher, merely selling used books that I have bought from other sources)

Would be grateful if an Amazon rep could comment on the above please as well as forum posters.

Thank you

Buyer pays for the tracked shipping in our case so self insurance is not a factor. Whereas I can't see the point leaving yourself wide open to abuse from Amazons vast army of thieves and scammers. After all we get no protection whatsoever

Surely self-insurance works out cheaper in the long run, doesn't it?

I can't see the point.

Hey forum members.

I've updated a few of our listings this evening with a couple new pictures, refreshed the bullet point information and matched our A+ content with the bullet points for consistency across the product listing.

After doing 4 or 5 listings, all of them were deleted with FBA inventory set to stranded. I did not delete any listings or break any rules in regards to policy, it seems very odd that after updating pictures all listings got deleted.

Any idea why this might have happened or the best way to reinstate the listings so that I don't have to pull all the stock out of FBA warehouse and remake 5 new listings with new EAN numbers?

This has happened to me today. Some of my orders have it available, but some don't. So frustrations, I don't have time to go through click and drop fro every order that doesn't work

Over the past few weeks I’ve noticed that I’m seeing a drastic drop in sales over the weekend. It’s been happening for the past 3-4 weekends now, my sales in the week are decent but then over the weekend my sales are pitifully low. Was wondering if anyone else has noticed this? I normally sell quite consistently throughout the week and weekend so was wondering why the sudden dip on these days? It’s really worrying as it’s already become a struggle selling here without even more problems.
