eBay Suspended & PayPal Limited Forums - Amazon requiring bagging

I went to create a new FBA shipment on an item have have been selling for over a year and all of a sudden the prep guide is saying I need to bag them and make sure they have suffocation warning stickers on the bag. Amazon wants to charge 50 cents a pop to have them do it. This is a lot of extra prep work. I was wondering if anyone out there that does FBA requiring bagging has got away with sending them in with no bags or sending them in with bags but no suffocation stickers.

Today's cheapskate.

There is a safety issue if suffocation stickers are required.

Amazon is extremely picky with this. If you do not follow their rules to the T they will shut down the account.

They wont mess with no stickers being on the bag etc.

If it is that much work then pay the extra 50 cent....

Could always hire someone in for a few hours a week and pay them by the hour.

Have to work hard to ensure quality and no cheapskating permissible

Has nothing to do with quality.

Amazon has rules to protect themselves because of the poly bags etc.

Takes seconds to slap item into a bag and stick the label on the bag.

Can do 100s of items quickly to pack for FBA shipment if you are organized.

Dont give a toss.

You are trying to FLOG off a product that might kill a child if sent out incorrectly labelled.

If your family got issues because of faulty packaging, no way are you going to say the poor seller did not have time to bag these correctly

Be real, Kelly. x

Makes you wonder if a label is going to stop someone dumb enough to put a plastic bag on their head.

It won't stop them but if there's a label then the seller is covered, it's "dumb" insurance.

Probably wont stop them but they are protecting their backs and the kids of course.
