Selecting which FBA warehouse

We ship to FBA via their preferred small parcel shipper UPS. It usually rotates between 3 or 4 FBA locations where each particular shipment goes. I've noticed that one warehouse in particular, FWA4, has miscounted or otherwise lost products from about 10 different shipments to them this year alone. Is there a way on the seller-side to choose another, more reliable warehouse to ship to?

One of the 'joys' of doing FBA is that THEY decide what they want/need in whatever location and they have you ship it there.

That is so that THEIR customers can get things faster and make THEM look good.

If you ship multiple boxes they can/will make you split shipments. There was one recent thread where the seller had to ship to three locations. They were using the ‘placement service’ and said ‘This dramatically increase cost. For me it cost of sending same shipment went from $300 to $1500. ‘

My solution has been (and until I am in a nursing home and can't ship things any longer) to sell FBM. I don't trust Warehouse Wally and their automated forklifts to not run over my stuff.

I pack and ship things better than they do anyway. My last several shipments came in plastic bags. One was the package of socks as sold in stores with just the shipping label stuck on it. At least the mail man didn't laugh at my choices. I'm considering buying some thongs just to get a chuckle out of him.

Unless you simply HAVE to do FBA you will continue having these issues and they will most likely get worse as they 'fine tune' where your items need to go.

Hi @Seller_0D3VGuKcH4QUw, unfortunately there is not an option to choose your own fulfillment center destination at this time.

If you would like me to take a look at some of the shipments you haven't been able to reconcile, I will just take the shipment IDs and/or relevant Seller Support case IDs.

You can move your ship from location away from this warehouse and turn off Inventory placement. The system will ask you to ship the goods to a warehouse closer to your new ship-from location. But there is an added shipping cost when you turn off inventory placement.
