Selling books using updated inventory.
Been selling used books via FBA for just over a year. Have made decent money doing so and enjoy the process.
Since they updated the inventory system it has now been taking me twice as long to send stock to Amazon, you can't simply select the items from your inventory and create a shipment there.
My issue is when selecting items on the shipment tab by typing in their SKU, half of them do not come up and it simply says there aren't any SKUs to display. I'm assuming this is due to them being just added to my inventory and it just takes a while to update.
I was just wondering if it was possible to get back to the old inventory system, or, if there are any quicker ways send lots of different SKUs to Amazon.
Thanks for reading :)
On a side note these new fees are also pretty bad, this combined with listing taking 3 times as long is now making me reconsider using FBA, is anyone else thinking the same?

Curiosity really, not an answer to your problem. How do you make FBA for used books work? Are not the fees, storage fees & retrieval fees onerous - that is the impression I get from the forum. Finding new stock that is going to sell quickly must be a problem - most OP books take a good while to sell. As I said, just curious.
