jeff_14 Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 So I'm considering joining FBA for the first time, reviewed their intro emails, etc. and am generally on board but had a question about sending packages to Amazon. They indicate I can choose between having Amazon label the items on receipt, or I can do it myself. Given that I am selling Lego and other toys, I am concerned that many buyers often prefer to receive the toys without any stickers, etc. Does Amazon attach a sticker to the package itself? If so I'd be tempted to send them in already labelled assuming I could bubble wrap the item and then attach the label to that. But would Amazon have issues with that? Just curious what the best practice is for you pros. Quote
Jackson Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 I wouldn't worry too much about stickers and labels. Amazon likes to ship small boxed LEGO sets in bubble mailers so that they arrive to the buyer extra crushed. Amazon likes to ship large and expensive boxed LEGO sets by applying a shipping label directly to the LEGO box to ensure that the collectible LEGO box gets extra trashed. Amazon does not accept responsibility for their terrible shipping practices. Have fun. 1 Quote

gmpirate Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 Save money and label yourself and use removable stickers. Quote

Prior to self labeling, the number of items received was regularly less than the items I sent. Items lost/gone, with no chance of reconciliation. Quote
gmpirate Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 Pretty sure I ordered mine from Uline for use with a label printer. Quote
