New video! Hopefully will be a help to beginners. Let's Talk POLY BAGS for Amazon FBA youtu.be/k_DOlEJjyr0 via @YouTube

@DougFlips case

Do you ever message Amazon buyers who return you the wrong or used items? Or just put in the case?

@Joeyrwheeler72 Congrats, man -- this is awesome! I have a small death pile I should try and list. Do you promote your listings? Some of mine just sit lost in time and space, haha.

$77 on eBay in December to $3584 in January with $2650 the last 7 days.... almost no capital. Just my death pile, Amazon FBM listings, and stuff around the house. What's your excuse?

@SelfMoneySkills Congrats! I'm so happy for your success!

First full year selling in the books. Crushed expectations for Q4. Going to keep this rolling in 2024. $50k months incoming.

@buyboxboss Well done!

Feels great

@amzflipper Interested!

I've got 5-10 wholesale contracts from sites emailing me saying the products I've purchased are now out of stock It's an opportunity to get your foot in the door, and you start building the relationship Comment & Like and I'll DM a recent email chain! Must be following to DM

@SaulSellsStuff I'm so sorry for your loss, Saul. Thank you for sharing this beautiful tribute.

I’ve been putting off writing this tweet for a while now, but as I get ready to go to a funeral it felt like the right time. This won’t be about business, Amazon, or making money. I am sorry for anyone this upsets or triggers. In September 2023 my wife and I lost our beautiful daughter Ellie. The pregnancy wasn’t easy and my wife is the strongest person I have ever known. Ellie was small and she was diagnosed with a cleft pallet, but none of that stopped her from making herself known. We got to experience so many kicks and heartbeats together. I like to think I am still a dad even though I had to say good bye too soon. Ellie was born September 10th and while the hospital tried in so many ways unfortunately she never got to see us, but she definitely knew our love for her. The pain will be there forever, but we are choosing to acknowledge she is living with us in our hearts and to live for her every day. This post is simply to help me share feelings and ensure the world knows she existed.

@SelfMoneySkills Congrats!

Year end goal achieved!

@_MikeFBA @FBM_Cup Let's Gooooo!

Am I doing this right? @FBM_Cup

@Sal3mC Just go to Account Health and click "Call Me Now". Ask for an update on your appeal. But, yes, you'll likely have to wait it out.

@BrianFba Thank you who do you call? Customer service stated I have to wait it out.

My account has been down for 8 days, but, sure, send me that "FBA Inbound Shipment Received In-Full" email.  😅

@Sal3mC Then I think you just need to wait it out. You can always have them call you and just confirm they have received your materials and are reviewing them.

@BrianFba I submitted credit card statement, order confirmation, invoice, drivers license, llc, ein. The website was Perfumesclub.us so idk what’s going to happen.

@Sal3mC Section 3 -- yes, that's what I was suspended for. I submitted annotated receipts, buying confirmations, shipping information, and even info on me shipping the goods to Amazon. I called into Support a few times to check status of my appeal, but ultimately you just have to wait.

@BrianFba Oh sorry I thought that’s why your account was off. It’s due to inauthentic claim from 10/31. I’m unsure but I can still sell just no payouts.

@Sal3mC Not familiar with Section 8. What does it say?

@BrianFba Any advice on this with section 8?

Some great tips from @peternelson!

@SaulSellsStuff My new goal is "stop losing money", which is also pretty vague, lol. But I can wordsmith it into "break even on your Amazon biz by end of Q1 2024"

Specific goals are achievable goals. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed, underprepared, and out of time if you’re not focusing on clear outcomes. “making money” is a great idea, but it’s far too vague. Instead focus on: “Paying off my car” “Getting out of student debt” “Save 20% for a house” Once you have your focus the blinders have an easier time coming out. You also create an atmosphere of celebrating wins, even better if you have your friends or network aware of what you’re trying to accomplish next.

@john_in_nola Very happy for you, John! This is where I got tripped up, and I find myself in a hole that will take some time more intentional focus to claw out of.

I’m not posting bars or big sales days. Most of my orders are in progress or in FC transfer. But I’ve figured out methods of sourcing that work for me, and deliver profit. NOW I can scale; not a moment before.

@mama_scavenger You can open a Help ticket and Amazon will ultimately reimburse you for your costs.

@BrianFba I'm new to all this but how do u handle this A-2-Z claim? Does amazon ever say stop that sh*t? Ever?

Got another "Nike" return sent home to me from Amazon today. #eyeroll

@_liam1234 haha

@BrianFba Are you sure it’s not just a new model?

@MorganShuck2 not a bad strategy, for sure

@BrianFba I left apparel behind a year ago and never looked back. Everyone talks about return rate which is horrible but then you add in fraudulent returns and the problem is exacerbated to the point I just moved on. I actually get surprised by a return notification now not even weekly
