How many SKU's can you add to an account from a suspended account?
 

Hey Guys,

How many SKU's can you add to an account from a suspended account? I've got an account which was suspended a few months back, and I'd like to move the rest of the products to another account. It's an established account.

Thanks

None, because SKU's are unique to a seller.

You can however copy ASIN's across but be careful they don't spot a pattern, it's happened before and will happen again.

Thanks, so you would advice uploading a file with ASIN instead of SKU?

Absolutely.

amazon make a fingerprint of suspended inventory so that it is very dangerous to add it to another account at once

if it is many ASIN's divide them into 10+ parts and add one part every 2 weeks

amazon are known for automatically suspending sellers who sell inventory of recently suspended sellers if the fingerprint matches

IMO even batches of, say, 10 could cause issues if drip-fed alone from a previous account. Knowing Amazon, I'd assume they're clever enough to convert that into a pattern given they can do a cumulative snapshot at any given point down the line.

You need to break up the ASIN makeup by adding some new/different products. Indeed, on a new account I wouldn't even use any ASIN's I'd used before in the short term - think of the long term goal not short term convenience.

Lets not forget you've been suspended once, something has to change or it's going to happen again.
