Amazon Blocked Item
 

Just created a new listing in Everything Else category. I included some links for pics of the item in the condition notes, maybe that is a policy violation

Item just disappeared, now I found it in Inactive listings with the words Blocked next to it. Never heard of such a thing, anyone else have this happen?

Hopefully my account is not blocked soon....

*Whew* that was scary

Hello from Amazon.com.

As you may know, sellers at Amazon.com are not permitted to direct buyers or
transactions away from the Amazon.com Payments system.

A seller's listings may not contain email addresses, URLs, phone numbers, and
references to external web sites in their comments. We have closed the
listing(s) in your storefront which violate this policy and have listed them
for your reference at the end of this email.

As stated in our Policies, any attempt to circumvent the established
Amazon.com sales process or to divert Amazon.com users to another Web site or
sales process is prohibited.

More information about our Policies can be found in Seller Central here:

:sweat:

FYI: You need approval for almost all categories. The "Everything Else" category will not fly if it fits in another category, but yet at the same time you need approval. It took me a couple years to get approved in several categories on many of my amazon accounts. If you list in the everything else you will get banned immediately. Do not do it. Even if you dont create a listing in the everything else, but piggyback on somebody else listing and it gets shut down, you will get screwed too. AVOID EVERYTHING ELSE ALWAYS.

Looks like you are going to get 2 policy violations on the same item...that should be fun. You account will be **** down in 5....4......3......2....1......

P.S. Amazon doesnt F around with listings in the Everything Else Category.

Amaz does not like anyone to post any kind of links. Be aware they only give two warnings and after that you will be done. Play smart now.

You couldnt be more wrong. Do not post if you dont know what your talking about.

yes, this is my second warning. Dejavou! I didn't remember doing it(the first week I started selling) until I got the second warning. Thanks!

You guys must be doing something nice to only get warnings - i either get blocked or account deleted

I found a miracle solution to all your problems....1) stop selling f@ke sh!t and 2) follow the rules....wow

rsot that sucks you haven't been able to keep an account going. It's probably you're location

The warning came to my email from Seller Evaluation.

Maybe the mood of the evaluator that day has alot to do with it :juggle:
