Handling Defective or Incorrect Returns
by Seller_XUNeUuvrQDpgP

Hello Sellers,

We Community Managers are happy to help you with A-Z Guarantee claims. Recently, however, we've seen a lot of cases where previously submitted returns of incorrect or defective items were not processed correctly. So, here's a brief explanation of how to handle such returns and avoid misunderstandings regarding A-Z Guarantee claims.

So, how do you do it?

If you receive the item from the customer and notice that it's in poor condition or isn't the correct item, take a photo of the shipment. To be on the safe side, try to include any tracking numbers/labels legibly in your photo.

Regardless of the circumstances of the return, the policy stipulates that a refund must be processed within 48 hours of receipt of the return. If the return is defective, you should select the Partial Refund option. Here you have the option to upload a photo and note the condition of the item. A partial refund is also possible for 0% of the purchase price.

Once you have processed the partial refund, inform the customer about the reasons for the partial refund via the messaging system. Here you can then discuss further steps to resolve the situation with the customer.

Under no circumstances should you close the return or inform the customer in advance and wait for a response without initiating a refund. If the return is faulty, note it as described above and then resolve the situation. A partial refund does not preclude a further full refund after the problem has been resolved.

Important: These explanations do not apply to returns with a refund after the first scan. For these, see therefund policy for seller-fulfilled orders with prepaid Amazon return labels.

Regards, Spencer

GST obligations for FBA sellers in Singapore
by Seller_4zxqt7T1inJs9

Hello,

We have a question in regards to the GST tax. As a FBA seller, who imports goods into Singapore and is NOT GST registered, are we responsible for collecting and remitting LVIG Goods and Services Tax (GST) to Singapore tax authorities?

We read the following article, but it did not became very clear to us as we found some of the information to be contradictory.

Sales slow today
by Seller_LV7u1trC9Mscd

Hi,

Could be me overthinking and over reacting as it is only 11:41am but today sales are on a different level of slow,

I have noticed the campaign dashboard has updated so I don't know if there is a change in visibility of products.

So its been 5 months since I last faced this horrific issue where my sales completely drop by roughly 96% as an SFP Amazon seller. We are a growing company doing 7 figures a year in sales. But once again I run into issues with my business at the hands of Amazon with little to no support. More than likely I will be redirected to that mega thread. Seller support are absolutely useless. I've also found recently some of the support staff, with respect. Have significantly dropped their barrier of entry for requirements of English. Some huge grammar and spelling errors make me wonder do they actually understand the problem? Seriously need to consider this. Hence why im left with no choice but to contact moderators so they can clearly see the problem.

So once again im staring down the barrel of this problem. How is still not fixed? Or a reasonable solution rather than tagging moderators. And Emailing managing directors. I have lost all featured offer eligibility despite my account health being 956. Sales an all time high. Metrics absolutely perfect (VTR ODR OTS)

We think we know what causes the bug, when Amazon send the email with performance notifications regarding our price not being close to featured offer or something, and then it says we're not eligible on this ASIN and it seems to bug across the whole inventory until someone resets it. After we've made a huge fuss.

Moderators. For your reference last time I had this overturned was in case 10498728272 I keep asking the seller support to view this case and follow the steps the leadership team took in this case mentioned to fix it. But clearly they are don't understand the issue.

Undoubtedly you'll ask me to some example ASINS. As you have done previously. Usually you want my whole store but I'll give you an example of 10 ASINSs

Please can you assist straight away. Losing thousands a day at the moment. Just to clarify this is my whole catalogue effected. Seller central refusing to escalate, possibly because they do not understand the issue.

Dear Amazon team,

After registering the brand, I was unable to apply for the Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) exemption, and the seller support department handled my case in a perfunctory manner.

When I added products, I ticked the option indicating that I didn't have a product code. However, instead of the "Apply for Exemption" button popping up, a reminder appeared, stating that my brand had not been granted the exemption qualification. Therefore, I was unable to apply for the exemption in the conventional way.

According to the regulations regarding GTIN exemption on Amazon (as shown in Figure b), I found that I could submit materials and contact the seller support department to apply for the exemption, that is, the information and product pictures I provided in multiple CASES.

However, it seems that none of the seller support staff who replied to me carefully read the information I sent. As soon as they saw that I was applying for GTIN exemption, they only provided me with an application process (applying for GTIN on the product addition page, but my brand does not meet the requirements of this application method, which is why I specifically contacted the seller support department), and then ended the communication.

I hope you can pay attention to my new CASE (ID 11090862312) and provide me with some help. Thank you very much.

cartons lost in AMAZON FC
by Seller_YWSjXnkvxqceR

I sent 6 cartons by FEDEX. All 6 were delivered to Amazon FC, but only 4 were checked in.

I have provided Proof of delivery from FEDEX. I have provided purchase invoices as well.

Yet Amazon seller support closes the case (ID 11104021322) saying they have not received them.

I have provided physical evidence of delivery to amazon, yet no one takes this seriously.

Can any mods help this, because seller support is not ready to look at delivery evidence and blindly keep closing it

I’m posting this to share a recent case that I believe clearly demonstrates the level of injustice some of us sellers are facing and to ask, if this isn’t a hostile environment for third-party sellers, what is?

A customer bought a clay BBQ grill from me. Over a month after delivery, they broke it and then filed an A-to-Z claim. Despite the return window being long closed (Amazon's own 30-day policy), Amazon accepted the claim, refunded the customer, debited my account, and applied an Order Defect Rate (ODR) penalty to my account because i decline the return when customer request out of policy return.

Let’s be clear:

The product was delivered (only 3 days late, and the claim was NOT about delivery) but amazon always seeking problem to punish sellers

The customer caused the damage can see from picture below.

The return request was outside the allowed time frame by amazon rules!

I was simply following Amazon’s own policies by declining the return.

Yet I was hit twice: once financially with a refund from my own pocket, and again with an ODR penalty, which could affect account health and future sales.

I’ve appealed, of course they decline what else can be is it ? but the bigger issue is: how are we expected to run sustainable businesses under these conditions? If customers can break items, ignore return deadlines, and still be fully protected while we’re punished for following the rules, then what does seller protection even mean anymore?

Has anyone else experienced similar cases? This kind of treatment is not just unfair it borders on hostile. It’s time Amazon held itself to the same policy standards it expects from us.

@Seller_j9Bd91CW3ZVpr@Seller_mIRnuhdx7l5sN @Seller_DNQGSsdC7DccM@Seller_z3k8APxGfbQEK@Seller_Huz6FT08OxHAR Can you please check this madness and delete this ODR from my account and return my money back please?

Oddly written message
by Seller_540qgZMXuuXdD

Has anyone else had a message written like this?

"I need this item delivered by Friday 16th May 2025 at the very latest please. As a consequence of the delays already experienced, I have no alternative option at all. There has been plenty of time to fulfil and deliver the item, or to give me an honest response and sufficient time to find a replacement item."

It's so oddly written. I knew as soon as I started reading it that the customer was trying it on. Sure enough, the item was delivered, and the GPS was right outside his front door. The message reads like it was copied from a scammer's Facebook group or somewhere.

I was just curious if anyone else had received it.
