Something weird is going on for sure.  Only 30ish new Lego listings since Jan 1 and I have stockpiles of newer items I need to move.  I asked my Amazon account manager today to investigate and sent him a bunch of UPCs and EANs with Jan 1 release dates.  If I hear any news, good or bad, I'll let you know. 

We've seen a big uptick in Walmart sales for these newer items but need Amazon to fix this ASAP.

How come there are zero listings for any new gwp from the last year?

 

Did amazon block the ablility?

We've talked about it in this thread recently.  There are no listings for GWP's from latter half of last year on and many new Lego products that have no listings.  Many who had the ability to no longer are able to create new listings.

I implied this in the GWP thread when peeps were talking about the new one.  "Where ya going to sell it??"

Except for a few instances where I couldn't help myself, I haven't been buying anything since the holiday sales.  There are no listings and if you notice, Amazon is getting more and more inventory of "Lego Exclusives" so that market seems to be closing.

I've actually never even tried creating a listing or learning how -- been no real need to.  

Brands have more control in USA compared to other countries .

the joys of selling on Amazon, Amazon will pay me for the lego and I get a free dinner

That's all we use now is AWD, Plus if you ever recall anything from AWD it's still the the box you shipped it in and you can have it sent back on pallets
so you don't get any damages . 

Although we have a hard time getting CA warehouses to ever open and when they do, they sit in a yard for 2-3 weeks before getting delivered 

South Carolina is the second cheapest for us, I just sent 14 pallets Monday for $2556, If I bumped it to 15 pallets price for some reason

jumped up to $5000

I think 15 is the cutoff for when you switch from LTL to FTL, which I've found to be a huge hassle.  Those shipping costs seem extremely high, though.  Where are you shipping from?  I've been shipping 6-8 pallets to the AWD warehouses in SC and PA for around $250 per shipment.

Where in CA, I check 3 times a day and CA has not opened up in the last 3 weeks, My warehouse is full and I have a container coming Monday, I had no choice,. But even when I get CA its about 100 miles from me, It still runs about $100 per pallet

I'm shipping from the east coast.  That's crazy that it's so much more expensive out there.

I can't say that I've ever gotten a choice.  They just tell me where the shipment is going.  Generally either SC or PA.

It only gives me one option, That's why I create a shipment several times a day hoping to get CA, Do you SC shipments check in fast or sit for weeks

Seller Poll of the day:

 

Correct answer is: "It does not matter.  Amazon is going to refund the buyers anyway"  🤣

No, but I did just have 18 listings "deactivated due to potential pricing error"...the most hilarious of which is one where my price for a polybag was under $7 and cheaper than half the listings that are somehow still on there. Make it make sense.

How dare you question Bot Commander Jassy (formerly Bezos)

In lieu of jokes, I'd be posting Seller Poll questions.  Calling these hilarious is an understatement.

Guy that is at the warehouse next to ours, Does a little amazon. He was selling some branded hair spray. For what ever reason they thought is was fake. He finally gave up trying to prove it was not,  They won't let him recall any inventory at all,, They where supposed to destroy it 3 months ago but instead they are eating away at the 2 grand they owned him in storage fee's
