Hi everyone,
I'm hoping to get some advice from FBA sellers who have had success.
I've been an FBA reseller for many years and, until now, I've genuinely never experienced an issue like this. Over thousands of units shipped with inbound accuracy extremely high. While nobody can ever claim to be 100% perfect, we operate a three-stage checking process before every shipment leaves our warehouse, and we are confident that 99.999% of our shipments are dispatched correctly. Our track record over many years reflects this.
What makes this case particularly frustrating is that it was a very small simple inbound shipment consisting of only two cartons.
Carton 1 contained a single product line only.
Carton 2 contained the remaining mixed products.
Initially, Amazon reported that a significant number of items were missing and suggested there were unexpected items compared with the shipping plan (impossible). However, over time, Amazon has gradually located many of those supposedly missing items and added them into my inventory. This demonstrates that the original receiving investigation was not entirely accurate.
Unfortunately, there are still some items outstanding, including one particularly high-value product that all 45pcs shipped remains unaccounted for that was originally scanned as received. The shipment history also contains inventory movements that do not appear to make logical sense, which is why I have repeatedly requested a manual investigation by the specialist inventory team rather than receiving standard responses.
My case (12906300342) has now been sitting in "Work in Progress" weeks without any update, despite providing detailed evidence and requesting escalation.
I'd really appreciate hearing from other sellers who may have experienced something similar and what action you took to obtain success.
I have seen other sellers tag active amazon moderators so i will give this a try in hope -
@Seller_ZOQl3yGgQaWBN @Seller_nEEe7zUuNBBx9 and @Seller_zukQNO61PzGck if you're able to assist, I would be extremely grateful if you could review Case ID: 12906300342 and help ensure it reaches the appropriate specialist inventory investigation team for a full manual investigation.
I would also like to stress that we are very happy with the FBA service overall and, over many years of selling on Amazon, we have consistently experienced excellent inbound accuracy and inventory handling. This is precisely why this case stands out so much to us. The sequence of inventory movements and the fact that many items initially reported as missing have since been found simply doesn't make sense, which is why we're asking for a thorough manual investigation to establish exactly what happened.
Thank you in advance.
