Help! hundreds of ASINS saying they are re-gated
Almost every single item in my inventory is showing gated. Some of the listings still show active and are actively selling but if I go to the listing itself it says I'm gated and I need to send invoices. Others actually did regate and stranded a bunch of inventory. I have been a seller for over 10 years and these are not big brands that have been recently being gated... I believe this is a glitch somewhere can an Amazon associate help with this?

How did you get ungated in the first place? Or are you saying that these brands were not gated when you first started selling the items, but now they are?

"I believe this is a glitch somewhere can an Amazon associate help with this?"
It MIGHT be a glitch but that is really unlikely. Amazon is tightening the screws and LOTS of brands are now off limits unless you have the proper documentation -- an LOA and invoices from AUTHORIZED wholesale sources.
This list is not all inclusive -- there are hundreds of other brands and lots of publishers that are done for most sellers and more are added daily!
