Re: Section 3 code of conduct and dropshipping violation
 

I am dealing with the same suspension as of right now with one of my stealth shops - I don't think there is any way to get the account back but I am really hoping Amazon will eventually release the funds. Has anyone had this suspension and not had funds released after the 90 days? That is my main concern

Re: Section 3 code of conduct and dropshipping violation
 

If AMZ decides it wants additional info such as invoices and you are unable to provide it, then you will not get the funds released after 90 days.

Once decisions are final, its essentially a kiss of death.

Certainly feels like that - very rare cases of success exist but not without very heavy efforts

We sold in pets and tools category nothing high risk

No, we did not use Target,Kohl's, it was smaller/lesser known store.

Fair enough - tools can be risky if brand names used

Re: Section 3 code of conduct and dropshipping violation
 

It may be smaller and less known to you,but not to AMZN.
What is the return address,and does this smaller and lesser know store also sell on AMZN?
Worse,is it using FULLFILLMENT BY AMZN.?

This is such a grey area, every business is dropshipper in some aspect, although granted there is a difference between holding your own stock and sending via third party, but business is about being a 'good middleman' , isnt it?

If you could get some paperwork from your suppliers that you can hold stock, but they work closely with you and have offered you the use of their fast-track shipping service, as you do such good business with them?

In that way you are a part of the business, so its not dropshipping technically is it? :D

Return address is a warehouse in the US
No they do not sell on Amz
I had FBA inventory in there legit inventory with brand names like DEWALT from authorized supplier
it was all sent back to me since suspension did not go through

So what is your question with the above statement?

Re: Section 3 code of conduct and dropshipping violation
 

Good that you got the products back

Re: Section 3 code of conduct and dropshipping violation
 

Have you resolved this issue yet? I am facing the same problem. I hope you can reply and provide some insights. Thank you.

I've successfully appealed my dropshipping accounts multiple times. It's not the end of the world. Definitely work on a back up account while you're trying to get one reinstated, make use of your down time.
