Unreadable Barcodes / Erroneous FCC Radio Frequency / Oversized Items To CA

Hello all

1️⃣ Some sellers are reporting a high level of inbound FBA shipment violations for unreadable barcodes despite not doing anything different; Some sellers on the west coast are having issues sending in oversized items to CA warehouses; ASGTG#8 is May 11 + Pre Event May 10th & I hope you join; New storage type: Extra-large.

2️⃣ “Thank you for providing us with information on your efforts to stay compliant with Amazon selling policies. We removed listing restrictions and the Account Health policy violation record for the following content. “

3️⃣ Joel Wolh’s (in)famous PPC Agency has sold to Quartile, the world’s largest eCommerce advertising platform.

4️⃣ “We are contacting you to inform you that we have identified some of your ASINs as plumbing products that are not registered with the state of California Energy Commission (CEC). The sales of plumbing products in California are regulated by the CEC. As per the CEC, your plumbing products must be registered in the CEC’s database to be sold in California.”

5️⃣ “Proof of product authenticity (e.g., invoice). It must clearly prove that your products do not violate the Amazon listing policy. For example, if you received a warning for a not-as-described product, then please provide an invoice proving that your product matches the description on the product detail page. “

6️⃣ “We have held you responsible for this claim as you have had an increase in claims where we have covered the cost of the claimed items without requiring a return. Please contact the buyer to organize a return.”

7️⃣ The 5% surcharge on FBA sees start today but this is just the fulfillment fee which is a very small % of overall “fees” so its likely much less substantial then how it appears.

8️⃣ “If you believe the complaints about your items are unjustified or received in error, explain how you identified this issue and we will investigate your concern (for example, a complaint created by a competing Amazon seller).”

9️⃣ When they request a video call. “If we do not receive a re-activation request through the form above within 7 days of. this notification, your Amazon selling account will be deactivated.”

🔟 A batch of sellers received “FCC Radio Frequency Emission Compliance” seemingly erroneously. It appears the items remain active, so I am unsure what the deal is here. Also, many accounts received restricted product notifications for items long deleted. It stays on dashboard but does not seem to affect your score.
