    Great info for the newbie here. The ups and downs of FBA. Doing it a month now and a week ago hit a weekly sales over 400 which made me jump up and down with joy. Then that Monday ended up with a IP claim. Gees. Great video could not have done it without your course.

    very helpful , I am doing Amazon FBA UK and sourcing from China, I think the key thing of doing FBA is to find professional suppliers and freight forwarder to handle your first leg for your Amazon FBA, like IRFREIGHT, highly recommended.

  • @crushit9576
    @crushit9576 2 года назад +1

    If you sell a fragile item on FBA and you get a bad feedback saying that the item arrived broken... Amazon will take the bad feedback off your account saying this "Message from Amazon: "This item was fulfilled by Amazon, and we take responsibility for this fulfillment experience." . At least that's what they do with me. I can see that they left bad feedback but their is a black line across what the buyer said and that message by amazon bellow it. So your account is gonna be good again.

    I have a 5-6% return rate on new electronics but only 1-2% on used electronics. The used/collectible electronics always sell again but I have never had a new electronic item be able to sell again. I wish Amazon would send all those items back to me so I could prep and sell them as used!

    Hi Nikki, great video!! Thanks soo much! Returns is such a tricky and key part of selling online and in my case POD drop-shipping, yet there are virtually no good videos or other media out there to give the level of insight you provided! Well done!! One question, although you mentioned returns go up if you sell more, and returns are roughly at the same level across categories, what % of units sold are typical return levels? 1%, 5% or even 10% of units sold are returns? One article I read states between 5%-15%, which is ouch! I'd be grateful to hear your experience. Tks! Hans

    Hi Nikki, I would like to know how to do a replacement for a FBM item. My customer is returning an item and says she doesn’t like the color. She asked if we could swap out for the other color of the same item.
    Since Amazon automatically sends the customer the return shipping label I don’t see how I can just replace the item without the customer just purchasing the color she wants on Amazon and her sending back the incorrect item.
    Is there a way to do this? Or is this just done as two separate transactions, the return and the new purchase? Thank you!

    Thank you. This was much needed. I do have quite a bit of clothing and am getting some returns. Even Socks! Who returns socks! Return reason was that the product did not meet the customer's expectation. Well, these are nice long thick work socks. The listing is very clear about that. Anyhow.......Amazon report says "COMPLETE" then, shows "Return not expected". I am guessing that the socks are not coming back. Is that correct? But, I would not want them back anyways......hahaha.

    Nikki, can you find Mead neatbooks (no wire) in WIDE-RULED format? How about Mead or Five Star single subject notebooks in WIDE-RULED? The Target brand (Up and Up) in wide-ruled notebooks are also an option. I am looking for nice colors. Also the Embark backpack in one solid color grey...it might be listed as 19" Embark Jartop. I know they are exclusive of Target. Is there a way to tell how much the shipping would be to Canada? If it is worthwhile for you, I would be interested and I could let you know what I want from the website. Canada does not sell wide-ruled notebooks (there may be a couple at Wal-mart, but they are usually unicorns or Hello Kitty). I also get the Five Star filler paper (yes, wide-ruled) with the "tape" reinforced margins. I don't see many options on Amazon.ca or Ebay.ca. I paid $20. for Quaker grits - it's not available in Canada. lol
