Amazon PR Feisty / Large Vendor Accounts Shown the Door / AWD Open To More Products

Hello All

1. Suits were misbehaving less this week, with a lot of ASIN’s and some accounts reinstated. A trickle of the heavy-handed bundle suspensions are back, but they are being very difficult to work this.; This Poll asks if Amazon’s bundling policy is clear (6% say yes); ASGTG annual event will be in early March this year; The mass gating and ungating for large accounts is almost certainly a glitch.

2. Amazon PR fired back at the congressman who wrote a public letter expressing concerns over its mistreatment of sellers, but it was full of inaccuracies and untruths, according to my analysis.

4. There are complaints of massive delays in shipping into FBA warehouse RYY2.

5. A seller took an interview and after he passed, received another request for an interview. The second interviewee realized it was a duplicate and apologized to the ASGTG seller.

6. Some large vendor accounts were told adios and were given two  months to sell out and move to 3p ; Amazon opened up AWD to many more products, including oversize.
