    Selling on Amazon

    Apart from a note I saw from Xoggoth (who I'd love to hear from) does anyone on here sell on Amazon using either FBA or FBM?

    There's like a whole eco-system around it, very much like Matched betting does. With terms like RA, OA, PL, Hazmat, Gated etc.

    Who's stepped into this world? Does anyone use the Amazon Seller Central Account or familiar with the Amazon MWS API?

      Don't think I can help much technically. We do sell on Amazon with FBM.

      As in my moans, quite a few problems with the most basic account type. For one thing, search always shows "1 available", must mean one seller but many would think it means one item. Also postage is just defined by number of items, so very expensive for those who want more than 1 of our low cost items. Most of our Amazon orders are for just 1 item, a whole £2.50 income.

      Unless you are selling items of much high value, probably best to use the premium account (or whatever it's called) that needs a monthly fee.

      The plus is that we get a fair number of orders, so think their search system must work quite well. Suggests it could be worth it depending on the product.

        Blown through 20k in sales now, 6k passive profit in the last 6 weeks. That seems to be increasing somewhat. What a platform! Anyone else doing anything here???

              Now through 100k in sales, only contracting part time and expecting a minimum of 200k for the year.
