Hello Amazon Seller Forums team,

We are requesting urgent assistance from an Amazon representative regarding a severe FBA inbound failure that Seller Support has refused to escalate, despite clear proof of delivery and significant financial impact.

Shipment ID: FBA1930BCZT2

Case ID: 19150496031

Marketplace: Amazon.ca

Retail value of shipment at risk: $20,214.60 CAD

This is not a minor discrepancy. This is a high value retail shipment that Amazon is asserting was received as zero units, despite a signed Proof of Delivery confirming Amazon accepted the shipment.

Summary of the issue

Amazon Seller Support is denying reimbursement on the basis that no units were received at all, while simultaneously acknowledging that the shipment was delivered to an Amazon fulfillment center.

Key facts:

  • The shipment was delivered to Amazon and signed for by Amazon, with a valid Proof of Delivery provided.
  • Amazon is not claiming a partial shortfall. They are explicitly asserting that zero units were received.
  • The carrier has confirmed delivery and refuses to open an insurance claim because the shipment was accepted by Amazon.
  • Seller Support continues to redirect us to the carrier, despite the delivery being completed and signed.

This creates an impossible situation where:

  1. Amazon confirms delivery occurred.
  2. Amazon claims receipt of zero inventory.
  3. The carrier confirms delivery and denies liability.
  4. The seller is left with no escalation path.

Retail value calculation of denied inventory

Qty FNSKU Unit Price Total

288 X002S81ODF $13.99 $4,029.12

192 X004O6WCZN $19.99 $3,838.08

176 B0B34CRNTJ $39.99 $7,038.24

48 B0952GJZQQ $48.00 $2,304.00

30 B093ZB6VFL $23.99 $719.70

18 B0848HWH2Z $29.99 $539.82

18 B0949PSB7L $21.99 $395.82

18 B0952FPLTG $74.99 $1,349.82

Total Retail Value $20,214.60

This inventory did not vanish prior to delivery. Amazon accepted the shipment.

Amazon’s stated position

“Proof of delivery only confirms that the carrier made a delivery at our fulfillment center and isn't confirmation that Amazon received the exact items and quantities stated in your shipping plan.”

This response does not apply to the facts of this case.

Amazon is not disputing quantities. Amazon is claiming zero units received, which is fundamentally incompatible with a signed delivery and acceptance.

Why this requires leadership escalation:

  • A shipment cannot be delivered, signed for by Amazon, and recorded as zero units received without a serious internal receiving failure.
  • Seller Support has refused to escalate to Captive Team or Amazon Leadership.
  • The seller is being instructed to pursue carrier insurance that is contractually unavailable due to completed delivery.
  • Over $20,000 CAD in retail inventory has effectively disappeared inside Amazon’s network with no accountability.

We are experienced FBA sellers and fully understand standard shortfall processes. This is not a routine inbound discrepancy. This is a systemic receiving failure with material financial impact.

We respectfully request assistance from an Amazon representative to ensure this case is reviewed properly.

Please see case ID 19150496031 for the signed POD + invoice exactly matching this shipment.

298 units send and Amazon received all 298.

Then amazon said I had a one unit discrepancy. I filed a claim, submitted evidence, and won it.

After the shipment was closed, different item showed a discrepancy. Then more. Today another 10 units missing, on a shipment that scanned fine originally and AFTER amazon closed the shipment.

How is Amazon changing what they received after they closed shipment? And doing it without sending a single notification?

The take Action dropdown is greyed out on every row, so I can't reconcile or dispute any of it. Older closed shipments still have working dropdowns. Just not this one.

How do I resolve this, I should not have to search closed shipments to see if amazon secretly is changing the numbers.

Any help is appreciated.

New Mobile App update
by Seller_kFzSg4RlJDwbm
Amazon replied

In the previous app version I was able to get an insight and see all the individual products that I sold that day. In this most recent version I can’t seem to find this function. Does anyone know where this information can now be accessed. I certainly home Amazon didn’t eliminate it as this was the one function that really allowed you to keep a good insight into what was selling.

Hi, we have been having this error for over 6 months now when trying to replenish the ASIN getting the message “You are already at the maximum inventory allowed for this product, due to capacity or other restrictions” when trying to send in an FBA shipment. in the past 3 years of selling we've never had this issue once.

The overall storage capacity is nowhere near the limit, and all other ASINs in the same category are working fine. This is happening even when I try to send 1 unit, and my inventory for this ASIN shows 0 units across all statuses.

I have opened and followed up with seller support through cases with no resolution? Can someone please, escalate the issue to the specific internal team for this what it seems a system error.

Shipping cost to Amazon
by Seller_sFKBT7qazvo4e

Has anyone noticed crazy shipping prices to Amazon today or is there just a glitch in the system? Usually we pay about $20 to send a case of our product to the Amazon warehouse. Today they wanted between $194 and $286 to send it. We thought we did something wrong but reentered the date and it was $90 more the second time.

I’m really desperate and hoping someone here has been through this and found a way out.

My inventory has been showing as Reserved​ since May 5th. The products arrived at Amazon about 4 months ago, and the ASIN is a top-performing, fast-moving item. Currently my listing is effectively out of stock because the units are stuck in reserve.

Here’s what happened:

First case: CS told me the inventory is at YXX1, described as a special type of warehouse that “replenishes regular FCs.”

I requested a transfer to a standard fulfillment center. Each time, they said it would take 8–10 business days.

After each waiting period, when I followed up, they told me the transfer had failed. This cycle has repeated multiple times.

Yesterday I opened another case. The reply was that the “transfer center is handling it” and they cannot intervene with the operations center.

To make things worse, I am still being charged Long-Term Storage Fees (LTSF)​ on this reserved inventory, even though I have no available stock to sell.

Latest case ID: 20395834891​

Has anyone successfully escalated a similar YXX1 reservation issue? Is there any way to force a transfer or get an exemption/adjustment for the LTSF? Any advice would be greatly appreciated—this is killing my best-selling link.

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out to ask if anyone has encountered this critical FBA shipment issue, and I’m desperate for a working solution.

One of my key FBA shipments was automatically canceled by Amazon’s seller backend system. Importantly, my forwarder had already picked up and shipped the inventory long before the system canceled the shipment.

The core problem I’m facing now: My goods have already been delivered and signed off by the Amazon warehouse nearly a month ago, but they are stuck at the warehouse and cannot be checked in or registered in the system.

My seller backend still shows the shipment status as Canceled, with zero receiving updates. The inventory is fully locked and unavailable for sale, causing my listing to be out of stock continuously.

I have tried all official channels to resolve this over the past month, but there has been zero progress:

1. I have contacted Amazon seller support three times to report the system status error. However, all responses were generic template messages and provided no effective solutions.

2. I have submitted a formal appeal email to the Amazon inventory discrepancy team. I only have packing lists and official Amazon delivery/sign-off records as supporting documents. I do not have any official Amazon warehouse check-in confirmation proof, as the goods were never registered into the system after delivery.

3. I have only received one single generic email reply from Amazon Seller Support. The email simply stated that Amazon would not take responsibility for the missing inventory and would not provide any compensation. It’s important to clarify: I have never asked Amazon for any compensation. My only request is to either get my goods successfully checked into the FBA warehouse or arrange to return the inventory to my shipping address. I am willing to bear all costs and fees incurred from this incident entirely on my own. Despite my clear request, my appeal email sent one week ago has received no further replies or case follow-ups from the Amazon team.

Right now, my inventory is physically at the Amazon warehouse but stuck without any check-in data. My listing remains continuously out of stock, causing ongoing sales losses. Amazon has refused to assist with inventory processing and dismissed liability, with no official timeline or effective resolution provided at all.

Right now, my inventory is physically at the Amazon warehouse but stuck without any check-in data. My listing remains out of stock, resulting in constant sales losses, and there is no official timeline or resolution provided by Amazon.

Has anyone experienced this issue? Shipment auto-canceled by Amazon system, goods delivered and signed by the warehouse but failed to check in, inventory discrepancy team unresponsive for days.

I would highly appreciate it if anyone could share practical methods to reopen the shipment case, push Amazon to update the receiving status, unlock the locked inventory, and restore my listing sales.

Any advice or tips will be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much in advance!
