You have to have explicit authorization from the brand to sell it on Amazon, not a supplier or distributor.

I received the same email. I’ve been selling Estée Lauder brands for over 10 years. So I’m a little perplexed as to why they won’t allow us to continue.

I received the same email too. From my experience, this particular email indicates that the brand is going to be converted to the luxury beauty category by the time the sell through date Amazon gave us is reached. I got a similar type of email before when Bare Minerals switched to the luxury beuaty category last year. If this is the case for Clinique, then every seller except for Clinique and/or Amazon will be kicked off the listings on that date.

I had received the same email yesterday too. And It seems like Clinique will take over amazon market.

I received too, and I guess everyone who is or was selling this brand got the notice. My gross guess is either amazon will sell this brand itself or clinique will sell directly on amazon and all other sellers will be out.

Anyone who knows about the last date to sell.

There is a good chance that they are going to try to stop 3rd party sellers from selling their products on Amazon. I am sure several others received this email as well. I would reach out to you rep and ask if something has changed.

I said two years ago that amazon does not want us. They want to have all manufactures and no third-party sellers. Very sorry for your luck. Amazon is a work in progress to eliminate us third party sellers. Amazon has been trying to get one of our suppliers for 5 years.
