Depends what you are stocking - if you get suspended, you have to pay to get merchandise back and, if they think it's counterfeit, they will destroy it.

I was thinking about starting a couple of accounts using fulfillment from Amazon.I think it would definitely reduce your chances of being suspended.

I'm tempted to use it, i'm even tempted to use Amazon's fulfilment centre address as my Ebay address and get things sent there!, haha probably wouldn't get away with that.
I'm particularly interested in FBA because you can then market your products on deal sites, which you cannot do if you are a marketplace seller.

You have to deal with Amazons shotty service. Basically appeasing the customer when Amazon screw up in their warehouse which seems often.
That's why I don't do it.

well, first off they will boot the account just as easily,,NO Difference at all,,,then, they will ship your items back to you and charge your account Crazy Money for shipping,,,
And if the think that you items are Copies they will DESTROY them,,I Once had 100% Legit Factory Re certified Memory (Kingston) sticks destroyed by Amazon because they thought they were phony,,
The FACT that it was 100% Legit Memory Was the Reason I Had them Fulfill it in the first place,,
I thought like everyone else that they would actually see the Product and KNOW that it was Legit and leave the account alone,,
But NO,,,They Booted my account within 2 months and Destroyed the Memory over 200 sticks which I am still Fighting with them over for more than a Year now.

Rough to hear Slapped - and I agree that I would not like any 3rd party company that has no SIGNED agreement with me on paper to hold my inventory while I do sales for that exact reason and more - if they can destroy it just on suspicion, that's dangerous.
