Amazon account suspension!

[sam80]

Dear friends,
I am doing dropshipping from Amazon Germany to eBay Germany. So far all is going well EXCEPT banning Amazon buyer accounts. Out of my 6 Amazon buyer accounts, 3 accounts are already banned. I have three Amazon accounts left and I want to know if Is there any way I can continue dropshipping from Amazon to Ebay without being further banned from Amazon. Looking forward to an urgent response.
Kind regards,
Sam

How did they find out?

I would think Ebay would warn you for retail arbitrage.

less margin but high level of safety

depends on the items,I dunno about Ebay Germany,but on EBAY USA,there is such fierce competition that sellers hardly make any money,some made it just on shipping.

Prime members can ask AMZN to ship gift to his friend,but it is not possible you have hundred of friends all over the country.
also if there are too many returns,it pisses AMZN off

Most AMZN items listed for sale on EBAY USA are low price items,one could end up making just 25 cents per item,why do they do it>
some use gift cards they redeem with points from their cc to buy on AMZN,some just count on volumes,if you can sell 100 items a day,then you make 25 dollars.

I think if all orders are going to different addresses that raises a red flag, especially if no orders go to the registered account address.

postage in europe is mostly cheaper than in the US , if you pay 5 USD in the US for example you can have the same here at less than half

well stated - too much abuse of the free shipping to other addresses can caue an issue

so they say

[Lisa1234]

why banned？ maybe ship it yourself to the customer

[SMOZ]

Who cares how many Amazon buyer accounts get banned, you can create new ones quickly and easily.

Right?

The OP was 'Looking forward to an urgent response' yet never visited the forum again

The proper way to do this is to find the wholesaler and buy at wholesale price,not AMZN price.

list items above 39€ so you can ship them for free without prime that way they won't close your buyer account.

It's an interesting angle, and it could also be said that if they didn't want to abuse Prime accounts, then they could pay for postage and build it into their ebay selling price but I accept that could wipe out any profit.

I have no evidence of this, and you may well be right, but it has been said that Amazon are on the lookout for anyone abusing their services not just Prime, particularly arbitrage to another platform, and would still look to impose sanctions.

Certainly worth considering your suggestion and finding out for themselves.

This works for me currently on both amzon uk and .com

she may not get any sales,and if she does,the buyer find out she can get it for 35 or less ,she would find an excuse to return the item

You dont seem to understand the M.O. of US retail arbitragers,their margin is very thin due to competition and their low capital,they cannot afford to have item ship to them,then to their Ebay buyer.
AMZN may ship to them free,but from them to their buyer,they have to buy shipping plus it will take longer, and buyers would rate them as slow shippers.
The cheapest shipping with US post office is now like $3.84 and that can be more than their profit after Ebay fees

How many orders do you manage to place on each buyer accounts before they get banned? What’s the average order value ?
