advertised them as. Do not try and pass off polyester mixed fabric as 100% cotton. Buyers read
bad reviews first, and you will never be able to establish your reputation by promising something
and delivering another. Make sure that you do not ship defective products. If faulty goods are
shipped then replace them as soon as possible without any question (provided it is provable as a
defect due to manufacturing or shipping and not user.)
As for the last step you will have to select “I want Amazon to ship and provide customer service
for my items if they sell.” This is where you agree to use Amazon as FBA. They take care of the
shipping and storage.
Using Amazon FBA
The most overlooked step about how to sell on Amazon FBA is to create a product with great
labeling and packaging. Of course, this only comes in once you have found a supplier you want
to source from. To go through with this step, you will have to think of a brand name and logo
design. You may wish to employ someone who specializes in graphical design or this part. Once
the logo has been designed to send it to the supplier. They will make sure it is part of the product,
package it and ship it.
When suppliers have been paid, and everything is packaged and ready to move, it is time to send
the goods to Amazon warehouses. Since Amazon will not pay for freight, they have to be
shipped as Delivery Duty Paid or DDP. As an Amazon Seller, one has to be very careful that
every charge has been prepaid or there is a distinct danger of Amazon rejecting the entire
shipment. The most significant downside to shipping directly to Amazon is that there is no way
to inspect the products and find if they match the specifications provided to the supplier. Chinese
suppliers can make terrible mistakes, e.g. package product of the wrong color, and it will get you
bad reviews.
If you are selling new items, convert them to Fulfilled by Amazon. There are some items that
cannot be shipped via Amazon. You need to login into your account and find which items which
can be sent through Amazon FBA. Click on the” Inventory” tab in Amazon Seller homepage and
then select “Manage Inventory.” Go to Actions drop-down menu and select manually those you
wish to add to Fulfilled by Amazon list.
There are two advanced options at this point. You will be asked to select between FBA Label
Service and Stickerless and Commingled Inventory. The latter means that if you are selling the
same product as another seller and it happens to be at a warehouse closer to the customer, then it
will be shipped in place of your product. The risk is if the other brand is not as good as yours
then you will get bad reviews. Of course, this means choosing the FBA Label Service is the only
