I am an inventor with a patent on my designs. I manufacture everything locally and sell on my website based out of Canada. Tariffs on shipping to the US are ridiculous and make selling very difficult. Shipping overseas costs as much as my product. There are endless requests for my products but between shipping and Tariffs i am mainly making Canadian sales at this point of my startup. Could selling on Amazon help me with shipping, Tariffs, or reaching a global audience for my extremely unique products ?

Looking for advice on anyone in a similar situation.

If I pay my agency on: “orders shipped” – “refunds”

1. What report in Seller Central is the best report for the single source of truth?
   I don’t trust any of the 3rd Party apps (seller board, etc.).

2. If you suggest the Date Range report / Transactions report in the Report Repository, how do you account for the Deferred Transactions at that time?

Thank you

I have products that are not viable if fulfilled using FBA. If I use a 3PL that specializes in this market segment, can I piggyback on the 3PL’s Amazon Shipping (the carrier) contract rates and still get OTDR protection? My initial thought is no, because the label has to go through Amazon Buy Shipping, which requires linking the carrier account to my Seller Central account.

Does anyone else use a 3PL and get OTDR protection from using the 3PL’s Amazon Shipping contract?

My IPI finally stabilized but the whole experience was stressful enough that I’m thinking about permanent changes instead of just waiting for the next crisis. The idea is maybe 60 days at FBA for prime benefits but 90+ days sitting at an external location, drip feeding shipments as levels drop instead of big quarterly sends that spike storage fees and tank metrics.

For sellers running this hybrid setup does it actually reduce stress or did you just trade amazon headaches for 3pl warehouse coordination headaches? And how do you handle replenishment timing so you don’t run out but also don’t overpay storage at both locations?

Hi everyone, can you give me some information if I wanted to expand my shop from Canada to Mexico? What are the issues?
