“unsuitable goods” Gone Too Far / Solar Eclipse Glasses / Bogus Suspensions

Hello all

1️⃣ The unsuitable goods issue is affecting many sellers. I wrote an article on how I think Amazon should handle this, but the suits are not budging.; ASGTG10  is in full preparation mode for Jan 10th; a few warnings and suspensions of “artificially inflating rank or attempting to manipulate traffic” are simply wrong.

2️⃣ Some INFORM Suspensions are reported, and insiders expect many more in the next few days.

4️⃣ “Beginning August 31, 2023, brand owners will receive an average sales discount of 10% on sales of eligible ASINs to help you launch new products on Amazon.”

5️⃣ “The annual Holiday Peak Fulfillment Fee for Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) will apply from October 15, 2023, to January 14, 2024. This seasonal fee is similar to those charged by other major carriers, and covers increased fulfillment and transportation operating costs during the busy holiday shopping season. The Holiday Peak Fulfillment Fee rates are unchanged from 2022 for US and Canada FBA. Inclusive of the Holiday Peak Fulfillment Fee, Amazon’s average fulfillment fees continue to be 30% less expensive than slower standard shipping methods of other major third-party logistics providers.”

6️⃣ “We understand your concern and that the items are being sold under your own brand, although, based on our current policies, fair trademark use is enforced to avoid the misuse of a brand’s intellectual property, In this case, since Kit Kat is a registered trademark of “The Hershey Company” in the US and “Nestlé” Globally, because of this, as per our current processes, we require you to provide a signed authorization to confirm the trademark can be used.”

7️⃣ A few sellers approved for selling solar eclipse glasses have been down, while bogus Chinese sellers are allowed to sell.

8️⃣ “Please note that the details shared with you in this email constitute Amazon Confidential Information under the Buy with Prime Conditions of Use. We’re excited to invite you to participate in a confidential, invite-only test for the launch of the Buy with Prime app for Shopify. This app provides merchants using Shopify as their ecommerce service provider, like yourself, a direct integration with Shopify’s merchant admin. This makes installation, setup, and management of Buy with Prime easier, with improved management of orders, taxes, and promotions, while still providing Prime members shopping on your site a trusted checkout experience…”

9️⃣ SP suspended a self-made PL seller for one bogus restricted product complaint that was long deleted.
