@jason_fba Hi Jason, I have a very similar situation as you being restricted in 7 brands. Hoping to get those back to get my inventory moving. I would appreciate the help on utilizing the steps you took to get your listings back. Thank you.
@CTfbahustle @jason_fba Yeah I’m totally in limbo right now. I can’t tell if I should pull inventory to try to sell elsewhere or leave it just in case.
@CTfbahustle @jason_fba I was told by a rep two days ago that it was temporary and said it was a “brand” and “category” investigation. If/when I become eligible it will show on my inventory. It was the only rep out of several I have called the last few days that I felt knew what they were talking about.
@jason_fba Can you sell on WM? I’m having my prep center send WFS. I am in limbo right now as to what to do with my Amazon inventory. I’ve heard of a few people auto ungating what was restricted so I don’t want to bring it all home if they are just going to approve us. @amznsellerhelp
🚨This is the LinkedIn post I’m considering posting to get some attention on the recent Amazon restrictions.
Would need the entire Amazon community to get behind this to really make some noise. Even if you weren’t affected this time we can all agree what they did wasn’t fair and can happen to anyone if things don’t change.
This is what I have for now. If there’s anything you think I should change please let me know:
This past week, I and countless other 7 and 8-figure Amazon business owners were blindsided by a massive and sudden shift: restrictions on selling some of the top brands we’ve built our businesses around for years.
We received a notice that we had less than 24 hours to sell through inventory—a timeline that’s not only unrealistic but also devastating. Personally, I’m sitting on multiple six-figures worth of inventory that’s now restricted. And I’m not alone. I know many sellers who are holding millions of dollars in inventory they’ve worked tirelessly to procure
and manage responsibly.
What makes this situation even more frustrating is the timing. These changes came right before the busiest time of the year when sellers like us rely on holiday sales to support our teams, pay suppliers, and invest back into our businesses.
The 3rd party seller community has been instrumental to Amazon’s growth and success. We’ve taken on the risks, the investments, and the long hours to provide customers with fast, reliable access to products they love. To face such sweeping changes with almost no notice feels unfair and disheartening.
This isn’t just about money—it’s about trust and partnership. I’m calling on Amazon to remember the sellers who have helped build its ecosystem and to communicate changes like these with transparency and fairness.
Do better.
