What made you decide to become an Amazon seller
After hearing how hard and sometimes stressful selling on Amazon is. After hearing how difficult it is to set up a and run a successful sellers account. After hearing all the negative comments , what made you decide that you want to go through the process anyway? And are you truly happy you did.

Where can I find Unfulfillable Inventory Return fee report?
Sorry for asking such a simple question, I did a search in this sub and couldn’t find a direct answer.
I sell on Amazon CA and usually have unfulfillable inventory set to “dispose”. I recently tried recallinh some unfulfillable inventory, instead of disposing. Each unit came individually in a pretty large amazon box with the labels back to my address. My product is pretty cheap – I’m worried that doing this is cost prohibitive. How do I find out the fee’s associated with Amazon sending me back unfulfillable FBA inventory, vs disposing it. Surely they are charging me for the return labels.. to be clear this is all FBA.
Thank you in advance!🙂

Help setting up seller account–I don’t want the pro plan but can’t opt out!
Hello,
I’m brand new. As in, I’m just now trying to set up my seller account. I got to the part where they ask for bank account and credit card number, and it tells me I’m going to be charged 39.99 for the pro selling account. I do not want the pro selling account. There is no option to de-select it though. I just want a personal account. But whenever I try to go out and restart the process, it takes me back to where I was–forcing me to pay the 39.99. How can I start over and get an individual seller account instead? What do I do?
Thanks in advance.

Amazon’s bots destroyed my business – what now?
TL;DR: A 1-minute pricing error led to bots buying 30 units of my £599 product at £10. Amazon promised cancellations but shipped 18 orders anyway. Facing £17k+ losses (with newborn twins). What can I do?
Full Story:
- Pricing Error: Listed my product at £10 (instead of £599) for 1 minute whilst exploring difference in amazon fees
- Bot Exploitation: 30 units bought instantly – timestamps suggest bots.
- Amazon’s Failure: Account manager promised cancellations, but 18 orders shipped. 12 still pending.
- Financial Impact: £17,700 revenue loss + $4.5k in unrecoverable inventory costs.
- Personal Impact: Big financial loss – this loss threatens my family’s stability.
- Been up since 11pm last night
What I’ve Tried:
- ‘Begged’ Seller Support, account manager, and executive teams
- Sent legal notice + filed CMA complaint.
- Public escalation via X.
Need Advice:
- Has anyone successfully cancelled orders after shipping?
- How do I force Amazon to act?
- Legal options in the UK?
- Any way to recover costs or items?
This is a nightmare – any help is appreciated.

Tried to update manufacturing costs but was auto-denied
Hi there. I handmake my products to sell through Amazon and try to estimate my earnings based on what I would pay myself per hour (to be at least minimum wage) plus material and packaging costs. In March, Amazon are only reimbursing manufacturing costs for a damaged item. However, Amazon estimated these costs to be a lot lower than I calculate it to be and denied my request to change this value. How could I gain proof about my own manufacturing costs and have this changed successfully? Has anyone successfully changed this? Thanks for any help.
