Selling on Amazon? Bad experiences?Selling on Amazon? Bad experiences? Hi,
I've been using ebay for quite a while (mostly as buyer). I started to sell item on ebay within last couple months on misc stuff. I hate their rediculous rules and fees & paypal. So I was looking for an alternate website - amazon! Amazon has good structure - at least - no listing fees - only fv fee which is kind of high (8%+). However, no paypal fees and reimburse for shipping cost which is great. However, I have sold 14 ipods on their site - all with tracking numbers and delivered. Out of 14, I received only 3 feedback on amazon, and 4 other through email (which is worthless for my defend). They suspended my account without any explaination - except for "routine systemm monitor or violations". I have provide all requested info from them - none of my request was answered - except of auto-response. "We are still investigating..." Has anyone ever run into this problem and know a quick fix for it? Thanks!
Re: Selling on Amazon? Bad experiences? my wife did she has sold alot on Amazon and provided tracking numbers. She has gotten no negative feedback from the things she sold. Amazon said that some of the stuff she sold violated their policy they will not get back with her after numerous request to explain to her. Also they are holding 3000USD for 90days even after suspending her account. I tried to open a Amazon account because both her and I sell different products they will not let me open an account because they claim that they can link my account to hers. I called them and explained to them that we are 2 different sellers but they still will not let me have an account even thou they have no proof that she will be selling on my account. They will not even give me a chance to prove my worth
Re: Selling on Amazon? Bad experiences? I was a seller on Amazon for a long time, I was selling Software doing about 3-5k a month, just out of the blue I woke up to an email saying your account has been suspended.SHOCK! Help! Why!
It took 90 days to get my Money owned. Amazon is brutal they don't care. They accused me of selling academic software. Tried to get back, & NO-Way to get back, I tried using My wife, & even my daughter which lives in another city & they some how found out. My Amazon experience. John (aka bacpro)
Re: Selling on Amazon? Bad experiences? Yep me too! They won't let the little guy make money! I was selling a new copy of zumba fitness and was selling it for my neighbor and amazon suspended my account because of copyright! I mean I wasn't copyrighting anything. It was an authentic brand new copy and I didn't realize you couldn't advertise it as new-They cancelled my account and wouldn't even explain. No way to get back in!
Re: Selling on Amazon? Bad experiences? I recently encountered another rediculous claim. The buyer apparently claimed they never received the order eventhough it was confirmed delivery by USPS. Amazon suspended my account again because of the A-Z claim. They refund the amount to the buyer without my permission. I hope that anymore try to do their business does not have to face these issues but just a head up!!
Thanks for sharing all of your experience! I'm about to submit a press about amazon on this issue!!
Re: Selling on Amazon? Bad experiences? And I though eBay was ugly (based from the stuff I've read here and other forums) ...this has been quite an eye opener, really!
I'm sure your experiences will help prepare other members who are planning to or considering to sell on Amazon.com Thanks Guys! :)
