Tips for amazon fpr new seller: types of accounts, items to sell etc

[astralman]

So Im going to sell on amazon legit items, non brand like laptops and and some other accessories for items. Will there be a problem getting banned? I never have sold on amazon so Im fresh and clean.

There is always the possibility to be banned.

I think people here been getting banned because they sell brand items which they are not authorized to sell and probably been getting alot of negative feedback. Am I wrong?

I just got banned from Amadong about a week ago and they still owe me over $2300 which I will not get for 90 more days. Do research first and do not try to be over competitive because some other bitter sellers will report you and Amazon also sells its own products on their own site for very cheap so be very careful with your pricing, also do not make mistakes in the categories you are listing in or the condition of your products. They are very strict.

Generally, i found that most of third party seller`s price is slightly more than amazon`s price. Also when for particular item, stock from amazon finish, other sellers increase their prices.... also one can check price history of items from different websites....
i think there must be guide regarding how to sell carefully on amazon and make maximum revenue.... Be careful and do survey before sell products...

Nothing better than assumptions.

You are incorrect with this.

A majority of users have not even been able to get feedback.

A majority of users have been trying to sell 'regular' items.

amazon is vastly different from ebay.

Takes a constant battle to stay fresh and clean on amazon

....but slowly getting more alike over time.

Amazon is strict, but unlike ebay there is an appeal process if you get banned.

Ok, does it matter if I dropship from another country or amazon in the us wants me that shipping shows shipped from a us location?

Get the Amazon Ghost guide - you will have subscription to inner forums - read around there about what issues Amazon poses.

It is a different platform than ebay.
