Darth_Raichu Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Confirmed needing approval to list 3 different random LEGO sets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bricklectic Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Per the email this will go into effect at midnight tonight. Can anyone list any new Lego sets through 'add a product'? Hopefully approval will not be more difficult than it has been in the past..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is confusing and sucks ass I just checked a handful of sets I both already have listed and haven't yet listed under "Add Products"... All show "Apply to Sell" as the button after selection Condition in the dropdown... Details show: You need approval to list this product. Refurbished, Used conditions: You cannot list the product in this condition. Sorry, the ability to create a listing for this item is restricted. So, I can't list anything.

brunoros1 Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 The sell button on all Lego listings is gone. In the past this was a glitch and all came back to normal eventually. I have an FBA shipment ongoing. Not quite finished. I will see what happens when I finalize. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fossilrock Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 (edited) I'm getting tired of amazon. I don't do FBA, but FBM and it is becoming ridiculous. Ebay is not exactly better, but if i'm going to be locked out of selling lego on Amazon this might be the death knell for me as a seller on that platform. The glory days of Amazon have long since passed, IMO. So much for being grandfathered in. Edited May 22, 2023 by fossilrock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobrakai Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I did not get the e-mail and can't find any sets requiring approval when I try to add them. Just added some new sets a few hours ago and sent them off in an FBA shipment today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bricklectic Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I dont love amazon either, but if you go heavy on 1 set, say 500+ units, there really isnt a great alternative to liquidating quickly..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or try listing this one: https://www.amazon.com/LEGO-Captain-Collectible-Collection-Memorabilia/dp/B0BLJ2V7YQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brickwarmonger Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Got the same email/ listing restrictions. Gonna add a couple more observations: Most Amazon 1st party Lego prices are at MSRP right now, including (haven’t checked everything, obviously) the stuff that’s usually “permanently” 20% off. Anything with LEGO in the title seems to be restricted, including the 3rd party Minifigure listings, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive been selling since 2016 and got 2 emails actually about this. Edited May 22, 2023 by Bricklectic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmpirate Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 I've been selling on Amazon before the first time they did this. That was 2016?? I can't list anything right now and received two emails as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will see how it all shakes out at midnight tonight I guess. I haven't received the re-verification e-mail yet either. We can compare account age, sales volume, feedback, and account health all night, but in the end there is never any rhyme or reason with Amazon it seems.

brunoros1 Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 After I noticed the “Sell” Button disappeared from all legos ads I tried the Add Products and ditto. I cannot list any Lego sets even the ones that are in my inventory as inactive and out of stock. I did not get the emails though. This issue with not being able to list happened before (except the emails but these are automated). I believe this is a glitch. It will comes back to normal. Give it some time.

fossilrock Posted May 23, 2023 Share Posted May 23, 2023 I've been selling on amazon since 2014, as well. I was grandfathered in the first time the gate went up, but looks like that no longer applies. I just tried listing a lego star wars tantive iv set and it wont let me do it without an invoice. First the set is retired, so having an invoice before Nov 24th, 2022 isn't possible, since i purchased these before then. So goes the era of selling retired sets on amazon. Back to fleabay.

Don't give up so quick. In the past, once you are ungated for the category, you do not need invoices for each and every set. Hopefully that will be the same this time, and you can submit an invoice for a set that is still in stores... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was 48 minutes between the 2 emails. I did not try to list between 1st and 2nd email though. I listed several things a few hours before I got 1st email with no problem.
