Remeasurements
I sent stock into FBA over a month ago—basic adult baseball caps in 9 different styles. After noticing that the FBA fees seemed unusually high, I submitted a remeasurement request on May 13 for all 9 styles.
Since I didn’t receive a response, I followed up with support. Eventually, measurements were returned, but they’re clearly inaccurate and make no sense: every item was listed as 50 cm x 30 cm and weighing 0.5 kg. These figures are completely unrealistic for a baseball cap and strongly suggest the items were not properly measured.
Typically, Amazon provides precise measurements (e.g., 25.3 cm), not rounded figures like 50.00 cm across the board. These dimensions are closer to cabin luggage than headwear, and they dramatically inflate the FBA fees.
I’ve reopened all related cases and increased the price of the items temporarily to prevent them from selling, but I’m very concerned there’s something seriously wrong—or even potentially dishonest—happening within the remeasurement process.
Despite multiple follow-ups, I’ve still received no real response. I would appreciate any insight or support from others who’ve encountered this, or advice on how best to escalate this to a team that will actually investigate.

Sounds more like the measurements of an outer, have you checked they've logged the right number of units?
Measurements often come with a photo so also check the message for attachments.
