After breaking the shipping limit, a seller registered!

See you in autumn!

Amazon's shipping restrictions come one after another. Under the heavy pressure, sellers either choose to "lay flat" or challenge the platform's authority: break the shipping restrictions! The editor learned that an Amazon seller took the risk of breaking the shipping restrictions and was directly registered!

The seller's account being blocked must be due to their own reasons, but it also reflects that the current situation is still not optimistic. However, there is a good news in the bad situation. Amazon Europe has released a message saying that through Amazon's global plan, sellers' Amazon Logistics (FBA) products can be sold worldwide without additional fees.

After breaking the shipping limit, an Amazon seller registered!

In recent cross-border communication groups, the editor always sees Amazon sellers asking for help: Hey, do you have a way to break through the shipping restrictions?

At this time, there will always be many service providers answering: Yes!

Many sellers will reply: How dare you break the delivery limit? Aren’t you afraid that your brother-in-law will block your account?

Then some sellers will fight back: What are you afraid of? The brave ones will die of overeating, and the timid ones will die of starvation! Take a chance and your bicycle will become a motorcycle!

After a heated debate, the class representative will end with a philosophical remark: Justice may be late, but it will not be absent, so we will see you in the fall!

According to the established law of development of things: Sure enough, a fresh example of the autumn meeting came out.

It is understood that an Amazon seller broke the shipping limit and wanted to send goods worth more than 300,000 yuan to the Amazon warehouse, but his account was directly suspended.

People familiar with the matter said that the seller was selling high-value products and this result occurred because he challenged the authority of the platform for the sake of temporary convenience.

Another person familiar with the matter said that the Amazon seller’s goods worth more than 300,000 yuan were directly canceled and rejected by the platform.

Why did the seller ship so many goods when he knew that exceeding the shipping limit would be risky? Did he believe the lies of "internal operation by the investment manager"? So he shipped the goods without hesitation and wanted to sell a lot during the membership day? The specific reason is probably only known to the parties involved, but I am sure that the seller not only has nowhere to put the goods worth more than 300,000 yuan, but also has to slowly digest the bitter fruit of losing his account.

As soon as the news of the seller's account being blocked for breaking the shipping limit came out, cross-border people began to discuss:

A: Don’t challenge Amazon’s bottom line. You can’t afford to lose.

B: Go through the orthodox channels. Breakthroughs are risky, so choose carefully.

C: The more Amazon restricts shipments, the more we need to use safe methods and take shortcuts. This may solve the problem temporarily, but it is not a long-term solution.

As we all know, breaking the shipping restrictions will always bring a lot of sequelae, such as the cancellation of the shipment successfully created by the seller, or the slow listing of the goods even after they enter the Amazon warehouse.

Many sellers may say: How can it be so serious to exceed the shipping limit? My goods were successfully received by the warehouse! In fact, this is a probability problem. Sellers always have a fluke mentality, but they don’t know that after finding a service provider to violate the rules, it is equivalent to pushing the account beyond the safety line. Think about the fake investment link incident last year. It survived for a while, but was eventually destroyed by Amazon this year ...

After the account is shut down, the seller will often look for service providers to help appeal to save the account, or start moving the warehouse. Each operation means that the seller has to spend money. There is someone to connect with the account from birth to death. The seller is like a leek and is cut from beginning to end ... and the root cause of all these tragedies may be the seller's initial fluke mentality.

Amazon Global Program helps sellers conduct global business

On the one hand, sellers are restricted from shipping. On the other hand, Amazon Europe recently launched a global plan to help sellers conduct global business. Just looking at the title, it is good news!

Amazon said that through Amazon's global program, sellers' Amazon Logistics (FBA) products can be sold worldwide without additional fees.

Let Amazon purchase your FBA products at a price you set , and Amazon will sell them in other Amazon stores around the world. Sellers manage the sale as a domestic FBA transaction, while Amazon handles cross-border fulfillment and costs.

Sellers can allow Amazon to list, translate, and price their products in other global Amazon stores. When a customer purchases a product, Amazon will purchase the product locally and arrange delivery at the customer's Amazon store.

For you and your customers, this is a standard domestic sale. You get the price you set for your products, without the added task of international shipping. Customers receive your products as if they ordered locally, and returns are processed locally.

The purchase appears as a domestic order on Manage Orders, with the customer name showing as Amazon.

It is important to note that Amazon only purchases sellers’ products from Amazon stores where the seller provides a VAT number in Seller Central. Sellers do not need to register as an Amazon vendor or supplier to participate, and the seller’s sales account status will not change. Here are the FAQs:

How to register?

Eligible sellers are automatically registered. To confirm the registration status, sellers need to go to Settings , select Fulfillment by Amazon , and look for Allow Amazon to Buy My Products to Sell Internationally . If this option is enabled , the seller account is registered.

If the status is "Ineligible", the account is currently ineligible.

Are there any additional charges for this plan?

There are no additional fees at this time. Sellers will pay the same fees for orders shipped domestically using FBA as they pay today for the same product.

Does Amazon pay all duties and taxes?

Amazon pays duties and taxes in the country where the product is sold to the customer . Your seller account will show domestic transactions with Amazon, and you will manage VAT like other domestic sales.

Where will Amazon sell its products?

As part of the program, sellers ’ products can be sold in any other Amazon global store, including the UK and EU, as well as other countries .

Will Amazon resell your products in a store you already operate ?

If you use the same account in the EU or link sellers ’ accounts across regions, Amazon will not resell your products where they are already sold .

How to handle customer returns?

Items in sellable condition will be returned to the seller 's domestic inventory warehouse for resale. A credit note will be issued for each item returned. For more information, see the FBA Customer Return Policy.

Can I tell the difference between an Amazon purchase and a customer purchase?

Yes. On the Manage Orders page, Amazon will appear as the customer name for orders sold through the program.

Interested sellers can go to the backstage to check if they meet the requirements!
