Deactivated Account
by Seller_fyoaVKVEyoj5r
Amazon replied

Title: Account Deactivated - Section 3 Policy Violation (Supplier Chain Documentation)

I'm seeking guidance and support regarding my deactivated Amazon seller account. The reason cited was a Section 3 policy violation

tThe affcted ASIN: BOCTC1LQST, BOC676237, B0DY6V8PB3

ON ASIN BOCTC1LQST utilized the manufacturer's UPC was utilized, but the listing incorrectly attributed the manufacturer to another seller.

ASIN BOC676237 was listed as a bundle generic offer since 2023, with no sales offer. I have listed 10 different colours of nail polish in the offer, including top coat and base coat.

The B0DY6V8PB3 I am not sure why it was flagged,

Since deactivation, I have deleted all the ASINS in question, I took full responsibility for this issue

I've submitted a Plan of Action (POA) outlining:

1. Root cause of the issue

2. Steps taken to resolve

3. Preventive measures for future compliance

These ASINS were all listed in the USA marketplace; as such, I've requested consideration for the reinstatement of my Canadian marketplace account.

But all I keep getting are these generic messages, kindly assist me as I am at a lost

Protest to Amazon by Canadians?
by Seller_tJDFl90KoxMdz

My sales really have decreased for a month. Could this be because Canadians are no longer shopping at Amazon because of Trump's attitude towards Canada?

What about your sales, do you have any problem?

Thank you for your support.

Unfair A-Z Claim and Lack of Amazon Support
by Seller_Mq4rijtMEiDsT
Amazon replied

Hi,

I am writing to express my concern regarding the handling of an A-Z claim for order 701-6170875-7869025. The customer requested to return an item that was smaller than expected and not what they were looking for. Despite the item being unused and in its original box, Amazon authorized a refund without requiring the return of the product.

Key Points:

1)Return Authorization Request: The return authorization request was made and approved on April 3-4, 2025.

2)Escalation to A-Z Claim: The issue escalated into an A-Z claim, overriding the initial return authorization.

3)Customer Comments: The customer clearly stated in the A-Z claim: "Nothing went wrong with the item, it was just smaller than I realized and not what I'm looking for so would like to make a return. It's unused and still in the box."

4)Attempts to Resolve: Case log -17572072211 & 17597223771- We contacted Amazon multiple times, explaining the situation and requesting assistance. Despite our efforts, the appeal was rejected, and the refund was processed without the return of the items.

5)Lack of Specific Instructions: We received notices stating "action required" without any specific instructions on the actions needed.

Concern Details:

Unfair Decision: The decision to authorize a refund without requiring the return of the items is unfair and does not align with the customer's actual comments and our efforts to resolve the issue.

Inadequate Support: Despite actively seeking help from Amazon for the past four days, we have not received adequate support or clear instructions on how to proceed.

Customer Agreement: The customer is willing to return the product and receive a refund, yet Amazon has overridden this agreement.

A-Z Claim Policy: The conditions of the A-Z claim policy do not fit this case. The customer did not experience any issues that qualify for an A-Z claim, such as receiving a damaged, defective, or incorrect item, or not receiving the package at all.

Given that appeals can only be made once, we urgently need guidance on how to proceed further. We request Amazon to reconsider the appeal based on the accurate information provided and allow the customer to return the product for a refund.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. We are committed to resolving this issue fairly and ensuring customer satisfaction.

4 months ago, we listed a new item on Amazon. Based on the suggestion of someone who was either unfamiliar with the platform or relying on outdated data, we did a soft launch with a price of $8.78 CAD.

The goal was simply to let our soft-launch community—subscribers from our mailing list—try the product at a discounted price, with the discount coming directly out of our own pocket.

After that, we increased the price to $24.20 CAD, which is financially viable for us.

Even though we are the FEATURED OFFER (we’re the only seller), and our listing is now under automated pricing, the Price Health dashboard shows no reference price. Meanwhile, we’ve lost the Buy Box and our ad campaign is on hold.

At this point, our entire launch plan has been derailed.

We’ve opened four cases with Seller Support about this issue. The responses have been inconsistent—ranging from “wait for the algorithm to pick you up again” to “lower your price.”

I explained that the lower price is below my cost and, as a small business, I simply cannot absorb that loss. It’s frustrating and feels absolutely hopeless. No resolution so far.

Please, if anyone truly understands how to resolve this issue, we’d deeply appreciate your advice or insights.

Unfair A-Z Claim
by Seller_0nOcuJVKCLh5a
Amazon replied

Hello @Seller_j9Bd91CW3ZVpr@Seller_vtQxROP6UNr1O@Seller_p6OFPTiQ65IG6 @Seller_CnfW62x6yxvJw

Order ID: 702-2922104-6937051

I am writing to appeal against the A-Z Guarantee claim applied to my account, which has had a negative impact on my Order Defect Rate (ODR). I have summarised the situation in detail below and respectfully request that my appeal be evaluated.

The customer stated that they wanted to return the order. As soon as I received this request, I initiated the return process in accordance with Amazon's return policies and returned the product immediately.

However, the refund that was supposed to be made to the customer within the scope of Amazon's return process was not made by Amazon on time. The payment remained in 'pending' status. This caused a delay to the payment, resulting in the customer filing an A-Z Guarantee claim.

Amazon held me responsible for this delay, issuing an A-Z warning which negatively affected my ODR score. However, I completed the return process in full and on time, and the delay was due to the refund being pending in Amazon's system.

Reason for my appeal:

I acted in accordance with Amazon's seller policies when processing the return and completed the process on time.

The refund delay was due to a glitch in Amazon's return process, which was beyond my control.

It is unfair to attribute the A-Z guarantee claim to the seller in this case because the problem lay with Amazon's return payment process, not mine.

For the above reasons, I respectfully request that this A-Z Guarantee claim be removed from my account and that the negative impact it has had on my ODR score be corrected. I also request that you review this situation to ensure that it does not further harm my seller performance metrics.

As a new seller on Amazon, I am meticulously reviewing all processes. If the problem was caused by my own fault, I would accept it, but it is very frustrating to be penalised for something that was not my fault. Thank you for your understanding.

Please help with unverified purchase fake review
by Seller_oG52vsfK7p9CK
Amazon replied

Dear Amazon Community Support,

I am writing to formally request an investigation and removal of multiple suspicious 1-star reviews that have been left on my product listing. These 5 reviews destroyed my product. The reviews rating dropped from 4.8 to 2.8.

After conducting a detailed investigation, I have found compelling evidence suggesting these 5 reviews are not legitimate and may be part of a coordinated effort to harm my product’s reputation. 

Below are the key findings: 

Details of the Issue:

ASIN: ‎B0DY5JSKW5 

Marketplace: Amazon Canada

Amazon Case ID: 17654505071

Suspicious Patterns Identified: 

1- Unverified Purchases Only All 5 negative reviews are marked as “Unverified Purchase.” My product is exclusively sold on Amazon.ca and not available elsewhere, so a verified purchase is expected for a legitimate review.  

2- Timing of Reviews Four reviews were posted on April 19, 2025, and one on April 20, 2025 — an unusually tight cluster, suggesting coordinated activity rather than organic customer feedback. 

3- New Reviewer Accounts All reviewer profiles were created in 2025, with no history prior to that. This sudden influx of new accounts leaving only negative reviews raises a significant red flag. 

4- Volume of Reviews per Account Each of these new accounts has posted 15+ reviews, all within a short time frame, and all are unverified purchases. This is consistent with behavior observed in fake or malicious reviewer networks. 

5- Exclusivity of the Product As my product is sold exclusively on Amazon Canada, it is highly unlikely — if not impossible — for legitimate customers to leave reviews without purchasing. 

6- Low Return Rate: My product has a consistently low return rate — out of 1,300+ orders, only 13 were returned, which reflects a 1% return rate. This further demonstrates that customers are satisfied with the product and that the recent 1-star reviews are not reflective of actual buyer experience. In light of the above,

I respectfully request the following: Immediate investigation into the accounts that left these 1-star reviews. Removal of the 5 illegitimate reviews, as they violate Amazon’s community guidelines on review authenticity. Preventative action against these accounts if found to be in violation of Amazon policies. I appreciate your attention to this matter.

I am confident that upon review, the evidence will clearly show that these reviews are not from genuine customers and are damaging the trust and integrity of the Amazon marketplace. 

Please let me know if any further documentation or proof is required on my part.

I am happy to cooperate fully. Below are links to the 5, 1 star unverified purchase fake reviews.

Thank you

Trouble listing products
by Seller_nOg8qfb6Fbg6E

When I try to add new products under our own brand with our valid UPC codes I am getting this error message

"8541: The value 'Herbies' specified cannot be used as it conflicts with the value 'SPower.Tee' for ASIN 'B07TB5DR1S' in the Amazon catalogue. If this is ASIN 'B07TB5DR1S', update the value to match the ASIN data. If this is a different product, update identifying information (UPC/EAN/Part Number/etc.)."

However I can not find this listing in the Amazon catalogue and our UPC codes should not be identifying as any other products unless someone has used them incorrectly. Could someone please help me out.
