Is there a risk of using edu email to do dropshipping with Amazon Prime?

I say it because when dropshipping is done, we have to change the shipping address at all times and I don't know if Amazon blocks our account

Odds are you will run into issues eventually.

amzn DOES NOT LIKE its prime members to use their account to dropship,shipping is expensive,so are returns.
If your buyer wants to buy on AMZN,tell them to join Prime.
(This is what AMZN wants)

Agent, my opinion is that Amazon actually doesn't mind it until it causes them a loss. I think they run a sort of risk algorithm on each Prime account and determine if it is profitable for them. If you fly under the radar, I am not sure if it is Amazon doesn't care or they don't notice.

AMZN is trying very hard to cut down on shipping costs,so if a prime member is asking AMZN to ship to a different address every time ,it would think that person is running a dropship business.
would you buy hundred of items every month and ask AMZN to ship to hundred of different addresses as gift and ask not to include the invoice?

Why would shipping to different addresses be anymore expensive for Amazon? They have warehouses all over and dispatch from all over despite the address you give them.

shipping to different address and marked as gift and ask not t include an invoice says this is a dropship order.
you can send gifts to someone every now and then but not 10-20 times every day to different folks,how many friends do you have ,?dont money run out soon?
Prime get same day or next day free shipping and it is expensive,and it is meant for prime member's own purchase,not to run a business.

your customer is getting a free ride on your prime membership.
dont get upset,this is AMZN point of view,

say I run a restaurant and comes Xmas I want to thank my loyal repeat customer and his immediate family free before dinner drink,appetizer and desert and coffee,you pay only the entree.
You bring not just your immediate family but the whole village.
Is that fair?
