Not eligible to sell NIKE products
So i was recently approved to sell NIKE products after trying for 3 months and I then sent in tons of legitimate Nike inventory. Then one day randomly i wake up and my approval was taken away. so I reapply and i keep getting the same generic rejection despite asking the so called "internal team" for specific details as to whats happening and what else they need for approval considering im submitting the same docs that did get me approved initially and still no reply... just an automated bot message saying you are not eligible to sell NIKE products. This leaves me with over 7000$ in stranded inventory and no one to talk to since all the customer support talks about an "internal team" that they have no access to. How is $7000 of my hear earned money at an amazon FC because they APPROVED ME a week back and now they randomly remove it and I cant even speak to the internal team. Wow. Really disheartening.

Amazon cannot grant you the right to sell Nike.
Only Nike can grant that, and they do not want Amazon sellers offering Nike.
Amazon can allow or prevent you from listing -- but they cannot grant that right. Amazon assumes you have that right.
Read the forums -- It is highly unlikely that you will get out of Nike trouble with your account and inventory intact.
Reading the forums for Nike threads before you started would have been a good precaution.

I reviewed your application case and see that it has been rejected. I understand your frustration. If the application was denied it is due to internal criteria determined by Amazon. For security reasons, Amazon does not share the requirements for approval. Usually with approval requests, a direct invoice from the manufacturer (Nike) is required in most situations. Your best bet is to provide whatever documentation is recommended and to continue to submit applications for those brands.
The following links includes information that may help with guiding you on the requirements for products that require approval and how to start selling your products:

Thanks for your understanding.

Get the inventory back and say thank you if you can. You will sell it in some other place. If you can't remove them from FBA that's a problem.
