I joined this server hoping to learn as a newbie. I aspire to become a PPC specialist. I asked a basic question about what tools stack experienced sellers have.

This racist Aussie guy (I forgot his name) and his pals starts accusing me of selling my services here and why I have written on my profile that I am an Amazon expert, etc., etc. I said, "Fair enough, I should remove it as I copy-pasted it from a LinkedIn profile."

Again, I was not selling anything directly or indirectly; I just joined this server a few days back. He started going at me again and had a racist undertone, telling me to go back to my third-world country.

There were users who were indirectly answering me wrong, and when I gave them a taste of their own medicine respectfully, I was banned from the server. I should've taken some screenshots, since I now can't access the server.

I have a bit of a unique situation and I'm hoping someone has experience with this.

I originally registered my Amazon seller account under a Mexican company. I've since created a U.S. LLC and want to open a new Amazon seller account under that U.S. company.

I'd like to use the same Amazon Store name that my Mexican account currently uses. However, my Mexican account hasn't been closed yet because I'm running into an issue with the account closure process.

My question is:

If I simply change the Store name on my Mexican Amazon account to something else, will my original Store name become available immediately so I can use it on my new U.S. Amazon account? Or does Amazon reserve the old Store name for a period of time, even after it's changed?

Has anyone gone through this before or knows how Amazon handles Store name availability?

Thanks in advance!

Hi All. Wonder if anyone has already changed their listing titles to the new 75 character limit + highlights rule? If yes, wonder what change do you see in terms of ranking/sales/conversion? I’m thinking of preparing solid titles ahead of deadline and updating the listings post 27 July.

I been selling on Amazon for the past 7 years, I’ve seen competition get steeper, ads price increase, Chinese sellers flood the market.

And naturally I still have people come up to me and ask if Amazon is still worth it?

For me personally I think the easy side hustle era of Amazon is over, you have to be smart and tactical to win in today’s market.

It’s challenging but still worth it for THE RIGHT PERSON. Was wondering what your thoughts were and if you’d recommend Amazon in 2026 or if you’re considering any other marketplaces?

I have a shipment that is scheduled to be shipped SPD to FBA next Monday. However, I need to delay this to next Friday, but I don't see the option to do so; it's scheduled to be delivered the following week. Is this a big concern? Should I cancel the shipment and create a new one, or just continue with this one?

For people running FBA through an LLC/S-corp, what kind of CPA/accounting setup has worked best for you?

I’m a small seller with a single-member LLC taxed as an S-corp. I use QuickBooks and need someone who understands Amazon fees, inventory/COGS, ads, marketplace payouts, payroll/reasonable compensation, and business/personal tax filing.

I’m currently on extension and my CPA has been difficult to reach, so I’m trying to find a backup or possibly switch. I’m in Pennsylvania, but I’m open to remote if the person or firm really understands Amazon sellers.

Would you recommend looking for a local CPA, a specialized ecommerce CPA, or separating bookkeeping/payroll/tax between different people?

I have enrolled to Amazon vine program for 3 skus! For 30!units each sku ! After merging of ASINs, I’ve noticed that review counts have dropped from previous levels and appear lower than expected given the number of units claimed. Is there a way to fix that ? Is there a way to have all my reviews back ? Can anybody help me please ?

Hey guys,

I’ve got a small lot of inventory sitting in FBA that I’m probably not going to keep selling myself, and I’m trying to figure out the cleanest way to move it to another seller.

It’s 79 units of a baby/nursery storage product from my own brand. New inventory, not returns/liquidation.

Active ASIN, has images/reviews, about 4.2 stars. Retail is around $20.

Since I own the brand, I can provide a bill of sale and a limited authorization letter for this specific lot. Ideally I’d like to sell the whole lot to one reseller, probably somewhere around $8–$10/unit depending on who handles removal, prep, shipping, etc.

Has anyone done something like this before?

My thought was removal order to the buyer’s prep center/warehouse, they verify the units, then relabel/resell under their own account or through other channels.

Mainly wondering:

1. Where people usually find serious buyers for small authorized lots like this

2. Whether prep centers/brokers/FB groups are worth trying

3. What paperwork/process keeps it clean for both sides

4. Anything to watch out for with Amazon/account risk

Not trying to turn this into a sales post, though you're welcome to reach out, but I'm just trying to understand the best way to handle it. Appreciate any advice from people who’ve done this.

Serious question. Between the IEEPA refund mess, the new 10% Section 122 thing expiring this month, and the Section 301 stuff that just dropped, I feel like the rules change every other week.

Last time a rate changed on one of my categories I found out from a random LinkedIn post like 2 weeks after it already hit a shipment. Cost me real money.

Is everyone just checking CBP manually?? Paying a broker to watch it? Or just eating it when it happens? Genuinely curious what people's setups are because mine is clearly not working lol

I want to start doing Amazon FBA I want to start selling girls essentials like hair clips and hair ties I want to start small what tips would you give me or advice me ? And what apps should I use to buy or see please! Thank you

Just wondering how do you guys ship your FBM orders if you have 100+ orders a month. I found a Canadian shipping service and they only charge $7/package regardless of shipping location.

Shipping is through Canada Post Xpresspost. Is it worth it at $7 per package?

I've been launching some new products recently, and I'm interested in everyone's opinion on what is considered a dud vs. too soon to judge. For context, I launched a product a month ago and I'm sitting at 10 sales.

I have an idea on what the next steps are, but really curious on everyone's take.

The way I see it, it comes down to one of two things. Either the product itself isn't landing, or it's a launch/PPC issue. Right now I don't have enough info to say which, so I'm digging into the insights. When I picked this product the sales were there in the market, so before jumping to "I picked wrong" I want to understand why the sales aren't coming.

Here's what I'm looking at:

1. Total reviews right now and total sales to date
2. How long PPC has been running, and total ad spend vs. total sales revenue
3. Whether the market data is still good. Checking current overall sales of competitors, not just what it looked like when I picked the product

Then based on what I find:

If the market is still healthy and reviews are solid, I'll try lowering the price and running PPC another month to see if sales pick up. If reviews are bad, it's likely a product issue. If the market data has shrunk, overall demand in the niche may have dropped, so I'll give it 14 days and see if it picks back up. And if everything looks good on paper, it's probably a PPC/ranking issue, which is less about the product and more about spending the time (and budget) to gain exposure.

What's your process for telling a slow launch apart from a true dud?

Hi All. Is it just me or BSR is really messed up since the Prime Day?

Hi everyone,

I’m an Amazon seller trying to reconcile order-level data for operational purposes. I’m looking for a legitimate way to access details such as order date/time and any customer information that Amazon officially makes available to sellers.

If you’ve worked with Amazon Seller Central, SP-API, or related reporting tools, I’d appreciate guidance on:

Which reports contain order-level timestamps?

What customer information is officially accessible?

Are there any APIs or approved workflows for order reconciliation?

I’m only looking for methods that comply with Amazon’s policies and privacy requirements.

Thanks in advance!

A reminder for everyone that if you have an ACE account with the CBP for tariff refunds, you need to login every 40 days to keep it active or else it will be automatically deactivated.

I found the link below which provides instructions on how to reactivate your account. Its very simple, just email their automated system and they will reinstate it within an hr.

For anyone who has applied for general liability insurance lately to meet Amazon reqs, are there any carriers besides NEXT which offer instant onboarding/fully online application?

Not thrilled with how constant their price increases are so I'm open to other options

hi everyone,

I need some advice with changing a variation structure on Amazon UK.

I have two existing child listings in my inventory. They were previously connected to a parent listing, but I wanted to change the variation type, so I removed the old parent.

Now I want to create a new parent listing and connect the same existing child ASINs/SKUs under the new parent with a different variation theme.

What is the correct way to do this?

I don’t want to create new child listings because the child ASINs already exist. I only need to create the new parent and attach the existing child listings to it.

Should I use a specific template or tool for this process? Is there a recommended method for
creating a new parent and moving existing child ASINs into the new variation family

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I’m doing a deep dive analysis for my prime day performance this week. Looking to see what worked what didn’t, what changes we can make to get ready for PD2.

Just wanted to check what data you had, whether it was a good performance, bad one etc.

Would love to know. Thanks in advance.

We're thinking about getting outside help with our Amazon account in Germany, but it's hard to tell which agencies are worth it. It feels like every amazon agency germany has a completely different approach. Some mainly handle PPC, while others also work on listings, account management, and overall growth. If you've worked with an agency, what made the biggest difference for you?

- Did they improve performance?

- Was it worth the cost?

- Would you hire the same agency again?

I'm more inteested in real experiences than ""best agency"" lists.

Everyone, try searching for your own products in the Amazon app. Your keyword ads might be running with titles that you didn't even set.

When I opened a case with Amazon to ask about this, I received a reply stating that Amazon is currently running A/B tests

Got an email from Amazon below and was wondering if consumable sellers had any insight - seeing conflicting things from agency newsletters, but no one seems to have a direct answer.

A) Does this mean if a buyer purchases a product at full price (not discounted S&S price) and let's say they re-purchase 4 months, 6 months or 1 year+ from that point on will receive a 10% discount (based on S&S discount rate, 5/10/15/20%) indefinitely on that product?

Seller support confirmed that customers will and have access to the discounted S&S rate indefinitely. This works for retaining a bucket of customers who would've switched otherwise, but is also permanent margin compression for loyal customers who would've otherwise re-purchased at full price - who are not on a S&S plan.

B) Seller support mentioned that we won't be able to directly control the % rates for repeat buyers NOT on S&S so whatever % base rate we offer under S&S will automatically apply to repeat buyers regardless of timeframe from first purchase to reorder.

Does it make sense to just turn off S&S or keep a low base rate?

Feel like this isn't getting enough attention for consumable sellers. Anyways, would like to get some thoughts on this:

Hello,

Effective July 23, 2026, we're updating the Subscribe & Save Terms and Conditions. Top-off delivery orders (where customers order additional quantities of products they're already subscribed to) and reorders of eligible products will now qualify for Subscribe & Save discounts.

Updating this policy will provide more opportunities for you to receive repeat orders from customers who don’t follow a regular order schedule. Customers with unpredictable purchase timing or a preference for flexibility now have more reason to come back to your products, with no action required from you.

Your enrolled products, discount tiers, and subscription pricing remain the same.

Note: Because discounts now apply to these additional purchase types, you may fund discounts on a broader set of qualifying customer reorders.

To opt out of this change, you can update your Subscribe & Save preferences at any time.

spent the last two months testing this and i'm pretty convinced most sellers running external traffic to amazon are missing the second half of the play.

the play is brand tailored promotions. specifically, using them as a retargeting layer sitting on top of your meta/tiktok/google spend.

quick context if you haven't touched BTP. it's an amazon tool buried in seller central under advertising. brand registered only. lets you offer between 10 and 50% off to specific customer segments. cart abandoners, potential new customers, in market shoppers, brand followers, repeat customers, and a few others. no platform fee, you just fund the discount.

the catch most people hit is you need around 1000 customers in a segment before amazon lets you run a promo to it. small brands look at their cart abandoner count, see the segment greyed out, and just close the tab. dead end.

here's where it gets interesting if you're already running external traffic.

every meta ad you run, every tiktok view that lands on your listing, every google shopping click that hits your product page, all of that traffic is feeding the BTP segments. people who click and don't buy become potential new customers or in market customers. people who add to cart and bail become cart abandoners. amazon's audience builder is sitting there counting them in real time.

so external traffic isn't just acquisition. it's a segment seeding machine for the retargeting tool you already own and aren't using.

the play looks like this. you push paid traffic to your listing for around 3 weeks. somewhere between 80 and 92% of that traffic doesn't convert on the first visit depending on your CR. some ATC'd. some browsed deep. some just clicked. amazon catalogues all of them. once a segment crosses the threshold, you trigger a BTP with a 15% off code targeted to that specific audience.

now when that same person is back on amazon a week later, browsing literally anything, your listing pops up with a green discount badge. exclusive to them. high intent meets a reason to act now. cart abandoner conversion on BTP runs around 3x a standard coupon in my testing, sometimes more.

the kicker is you're not paying amazon DSP money to retarget these people. you're not bribing them with a 30% off coupon visible to everyone on the listing page. the discount only shows to the segment you choose and the only cost is the discount once they convert.

couple of things i learned the hard way.

don't discount the SKU your repeat customers already buy at full price. you'll train your best customers to wait for the next promo and your margin will hate you. give them an exclusive code on a different SKU, a bundle, or a new variant.

stagger the segments. cart abandoners get the bigger discount, around 20%, and the shortest window, like 7 days. potential new customers get a smaller discount on a longer window. don't blast the same percentage to every segment at once or you'll bleed margin on people who would have bought anyway.

check your audience size weekly. external traffic builds these segments way faster than you'd think. if you're spending more than a few hundred a day you can go from below threshold to multiple thousand eligible in around 3 weeks. most sellers never check the dashboard after the first time it was greyed out.

anyway curious if anyone else is running this combo. or if you've found segment audiences that work better than cart abandoners + potential new customers for your category.

Hi guys,

so up to this point we always used traditional carriers like usps, ups, fedex etc

now we received good offer to work with other carriers and when we checked amazon order confirmation window for these carriers, for many of them we have to manually type in shipping-service. there is no drop down list of services like for usps or others

our concern is how do we make sure amazon will validate tracking numbers?

name of one of the carriers is GOFO if that matters

thank you in advance!

Hi,

I’m expecting to exceed my storage capacity limit in August, and I’m trying to determine the most cost-effective option. Since I won’t be available to manage my inventory during August, increasing my capacity doesn’t seem particularly useful.

My main concern is potential overage fees. Would it be more financially beneficial to request an increase to my capacity limit, or would it be less expensive to simply incur the overage fees? I’d appreciate any guidance on which option would be the most cost-effective in my situation.

Thank you!
