If I ship a big order to a customer(FBM) and he returns it because he found it cheaper elsewhere, I have to pay for the shipping twice ?
Seems like an easy way a competitor could bankrupt me ?

Handling time 30 days? My products are Made To Order and need processing time
Hi there. I’m new to Amazon Handmade. I do carvings by order. I also have Etsy. In my Etsy shop all items are Made To Order and processing time is 4-6 weeks, depending of the previous orders. I don’t have many sales, approximately 10 sales monthly, but when customers order my product and want to wait 6 weeks, I know they honestly support and respect my works. How is that in Amazon? Are Amazon customers enough patient to wait for the project 6 weeks, or want it asap? Could I expect many sales on Amazon with this handling time?

Bought a few pallets of these. Right after Amazon took down the feature listings.
As title states, got 200+ of these. Selling them FBM and moving very slow. There is no feature listing for the product anymore for some reason.
Why is there no feature? What can I do to get feature? Should I do FBA?

Win Amazon Pet Day 2025 Without Slashing Prices
Prime Day is noisy. Pet Day is yours. Hereâs how to turn May 13â14 into your brandâs best sales event of the yearâwithout losing margin, momentum, or your mind.
Pet Day Is Your Underdog Advantage
Amazon Pet Day (May 13â14, 2025) has evolved into a seller-friendly, low-friction, high-conversion opportunity. Itâs no longer a minor event hiding in Prime Dayâs shadow. Itâs your moment to shineâand hereâs why:
- No invite-only restrictions
- No Prime-only limitations
- Early traffic starting April 29
- AI-driven recommendations powered by Pet Profiles
And best of all? Most of your competitors are underestimating it.
Why Itâs Different This Year
Amazon is rolling out serious tech:
- Rufus (Amazonâs AI)Â is recommending products by breed, age, and behavior
- Pet Profiles are turning one-time shoppers into curated, data-rich segments
- Milestone Gift Lists (like birthdays & gotcha days) are converting faster than keyword-driven search
If your listings are optimized, and your promos are smart, this is your moment.
5 Tactical Moves to Win Pet Day Without a Price War
1. Skip the 40% OffâOffer Precision, Not Panic
Pet owners donât want the biggest discount. They want the best fit.
- 10â15% off + Subscribe & Save
- Pet milestone bundles: New Puppy Pack, Senior Dog Wellness Set

2. Hack Visibility with AI-Optimized Listings
Rufus wonât surface your product if it doesnât match buyer intent.
Use breed-specific and use-case terms:
- âFor high-energy retrieversâ
- âCalming chews for anxious catsâ
- âGrain-free treats for small dogsâ
Add Pet Profile-friendly A+ Content and answer real-life questions in your bullets.
3. Check Inventory BEFORE You Go Viral
Imagine making the curated âTop 10 for Labsâ list⊠then running out of stock.
- Use Seller Labs Restock App to forecast demand based on past sales and lead times

React in real time, reallocate, and win the second day harder than the first.

Product photos. One rule for some, some for others….!?
I’ve been helping out an Amazon seller (UK) for the past 6 years. They mainly sell gardening products.
All sellers know that Amazon set’s certain rules when it comes to the main product image. White background, no text, blah blah blah. Now we abide by the rules as much as possible. Some we’ve managed to slipped through the net that do not strictly follow the white background rule (etc). HOWEVER, I notice many sellers break all the rules, featuring all sorts of graphics and such on their main image.
I mean, if we even have a watermark or like an inset image on our photo we get flagged!?
So how are these “rule breakers” slipping through the net?! If you’re one of the rule breakers, what’s your secret!? Haha.
