Should I get the pro seller account and eat the $40 now for seller fulfilled prime?

I mean, I haven't tested the market in Amazon for a long time. Amazon charges the 40 bucks right up front so that sucks. You need a pro account before you can go seller fulfilled. So I'm wondering, are you eligible for seller fulfilled prime right from the get go? I haven't sold one thing on this account yet.

You save $1 for every item sold with a pro store, so if you're selling more than 40 items a month you recoup the cost of the membership.

Personally I would just go for it

But would you be allowed to be seller fulfilled eligible right from the get go?

Bro -- are you seriously contemplating how you are going to sell based off a $40 per month fee on Amazon? Seller Fulfilled Prime is not for the faint of heart. You will not be eligible right off of the bat, and rightfully so. Orders will come in much quicker than you would have the ability to fulfill them. Selling on Amazon is high-volume -- fast-paced -- real deal big boy selling. There will be plenty of other areas where you are going to have to eat some money for essentially nothing. The only explanation I have for that which I constantly find myself reminding the $1MM+ annual sellers I work with often: Charge It To The Game

Of course i have no problem with the 40 dollars, it's just that i don't know exactly what will work and what will not. Though I am totally leaning towards the 40 dollars now. I have some inventory that's difficult to move on Ebay. But I have a hunch that Amazon will sell. Decisions decisions.

Its a hit or miss situation,but 40 bucks isnt a make or break situation im sure u know this.I say go for it ,take the W or L if there is one .
