I am trying to apply for a brand, have given valid invoices from a supplier that meets all their requirements & yet they continue to deny me.

Screw these brand approvals & Amazon for being overly restrictive! I know support here will be of little help. I just want to say Walmart now has an FBA like program in Canada & they don't require brand approvals on anything. You are just free to sell your stuff like how Amazon use to be & its amazing!

I want Amazon to abolish the brand approvals so sellers can actually sell because Amazon is getting WAYYY too restrictive these days & there is way too much red tape here.

Also I want to inform everyone, there are third party fulfillment companies for sites like ebay, etsy, & other online marketplaces where you can just ship inventory & they handle logistics. If Amazon doesn't wants to bog down their platform with these annoying approvals, lets give them a reason to remove them by supporting business models that have ZERO brand approvals.

Brand approvals are anti-competitive & should be illegal. If Amazon requires approval, they are no longer a third party marketplace provider, like a publisher it should be all or nothing. If they are approving who can & cant sell certain brands, their legal defense of just being a marketplace should be stripped!

I am filing complaints to Canada's competition board & the FTC against these approvals for being anti-competitive & encourage everyone else to do the same if you want to see a free Amazon where you're able to sell your stuff without arbitrary restrictions.
