Pending orders for large amounts of same item
Hi we sell just FBA and we are getting sales for all of our stock of a particular item and then its held as a pending status waiting for payment verification. I dont know if these are genuine sales or competitors stopping us from selling. This is happening more and more. We can only ask for them to go back on sale if they have been pending for more than 30 days.
Is this happening to anyone else?

Its a black hat tactic from your competitors, the best thing to do is limit the number of items a seller can purchase at 1 time, then get the Amazon legal team involved
We went through the same thing

Black hat tactics. Someone on that listing is tying up your inventory during key sales days.
Sometimes they may purchase it all and return it after.
