Request approval - Whats the point?
I'm real new to Amazon Seller. Like a day. Everything I've tried to list (used products I own) has indicated need approval. I've tried books, tools, etc. What is the point of even trying to sell on Amazon if everything requires approval or is rejected. Are there categories others are selling in that is less difficult?

Because Amazon is not a garage sale site. You need real business relationships and proper approvals to sell on the platform.

What you want is not a good fit for Amazon and will cause you nothing but grief. eBay is a much better venue for that.

Good Evening @Seller_bm59FHBQbX3u2,
It appears a few of our seasoned sellers have shared with you some guidance on deciding what products to list on Amazon and how to handle selling application and their approvals.
Whichever products you decide to sell, I'd recommend ensuring they meet the sourcing guidelines -->HERE<-- and invoicing guidelines -->HERE<--
Additionally, Amazon requires approval to sell in many categories, brands, and products and in some instances restrictions and policies change. A letter of authorization is a valuable addition if you’re sourcing directly from the brand or their manufacturer.
Lastly, if you have a relationship with the brand/publisher, you can to be added as an authorized 3rd party reseller through Brand Registry (but the brand has to add you on their end). Once that has occurred you can attempt to list again and if you still have any issues reach out to support letting them know you are now in the brand's Brand Registry approved list.
Feel free to review all the feedback the other sellers and I have shared as we want to make sure you don't begin your selling journey on the wrong foot.
Let us know if you have any questions about any of the information provided above or you can reach out to Selling Partner Support at anytime. Have a terrific rest of the week.
Sincerely, Cooper_Amazon
