I warn all newbies not to make the same mistake as me to avoid ending up in a terrible situation like I am at the moment.
I warn all newbies not to make the same mistake as me to avoid ending up in a terrible situation like I am at the moment.
Before you start selling here on Amazon, read everything, study hard, don't even think about starting without reading all the rules and watching all the videos right here on Amazon
unfortunately I didn't do that and that's why I got into a lot of trouble, I had my balance blocked for violating an Amazon rule and now I'm in a very complicated situation going through great difficulties I write this with tears in my eyes, I'm very sad
please don't start here without first having a lot of information, if I could go back I would do everything differently I would study a lot before starting here
I hope this message can help someone.

Great advice, not just for selling on Amazon, but for ANY business venture.
I would add that you should have financial reserves to go, at the BARE MINIMUM, 6 months without seeing any return on investment.
I hope that you are able to recover from your expensive lesson. Good luck!

This is not to rub salt in your wounds but just to recap what shows up in your other posts so other rookies do NOT repeat the mistakes.
You got suspended for 'drop shipping' even though you weren't (apparently).
What you DID do was buy someplace (NOT an authorized wholesale outlet) and sent Amazon RECEIPTS as proof of authenticity.
As a result of no chain of custody and no proof of authenticity Amazon is/was withholding ALL of your sales proceeds.
As of the latest post they WILL allow you to sell FBA which is quite rare!
As of your post from 4 days ago your money is still being held.
There is really bad news for you since it's very likely you will NOT get the money in your account back because you have no chain of custody and proof of authenticity as far as Amazon AND the new INFORM Act rules are concerned.
For newbies the lessons are --
An LOA from the brands you want to sell.
Buy from authorized wholesale sources.
STUDY SELLER U before you do anything!

Great advice! Unfortunately THESE newbies will never visit the forum ! And unfortunately they believe what other ignorants tell them in facebook groups, on Tiktok or where ever!

And that right there is enough for you to be suspended. Even if no one complained, even if there were no competitors; you sourced through other than proper channels.
Think about it; what are you offering Amazon? What will a customer think when they order from you at $15, then later realize they could have ordered from the Walmart site for $10 (just as you did). You are adding no value for the customer nor for Amazon; in fact, actions such as this HURT Amazon, and by extension, all of the rest of us who sell on Amazon.
Stuff like this makes people lose their trust that Amazon is the place to go to buy stuff, so we all lose. All because people wanted to make a quick buck without actually doing any real work.
