Please ensure to have your local registered address updated, as Amazon will return any unsuitable units to you which has no removal order created for or disposed of before August 12, 2024 [15 days after the date of this notice] in accordance with the Business Solutions Agreement (BSA) and FBA policies. We will retain any proceeds that we may receive from the disposal and you will not be eligible for any reimbursement.
Amazon does not provide liquidation services for sellers but Amazon SPN includes liquidators that you could engage if you want to liquidate your unsuitable inventory rather than have it returned to you. You can find out more details here. Amazon SPN is our network of third-party service providers who can help you manage your Amazon business. Please be aware that Amazon provides Amazon SPN as an informational resource. If you choose to retain a third-party service provider (such as a liquidator), you will be contracting directly with that provider, which will be providing services to you at your direction. Amazon does not endorse any service provider or its services.
Thank you,
