Too bad! All the goods of Amazon sellers are delayed, and the loss may reach hundreds of millions of dollars

Yesterday, many sellers’ Moments and WeChat groups were flooded with a message: “This year, all the houses in Shenzhen Bay have been snapped up by Amazon sellers!” Many Amazon sellers were probably so jealous after seeing this that they couldn’t sleep at night. Maizi also shed tears of envy after hearing this.

You know, the average price of a house in Shenzhen Bay No. 1 is 280,000 yuan per square meter, and the total price of a house there is nearly 100 million yuan. Even if you rent a house there, the monthly rent will be 70,000 to 80,000 yuan.

As soon as this news came out, many people had a new understanding of the group of Amazon sellers:

However, some sellers said rationally: "Those who can buy houses in Shenzhen Bay must be super big sellers, and ordinary small sellers should not think too much."

However, some sellers also said: "As a small or medium-sized seller, with explosive orders at all points on Amazon, I can still make tens of millions in revenue in a year."

However, more Amazon operators say: "The average salary is only about 8k, which is ten times less than the monthly rent in Shenzhen Bay." Here are some Amazon operators' thoughts:

After a week of severe weather at sea, the large container ship ONE APUS docked at the Port of Kobe, Japan, and began to count the losses and sort out the damaged containers. So far, the ONE APUS's distress story has come to a temporary end.

According to reports, the cargo ship named One Apus departed from Shenzhen Yantian Port and was originally scheduled to go to Long Beach Port in California. However, it was hit by a typhoon 1,600 kilometers northwest of the Hawaiian Islands on November 30, local time. According to preliminary statistics, 1,816 containers were lost on the ship, of which 64 containers contained dangerous goods, including 54 boxes of fireworks, 8 boxes of batteries and 2 boxes of alcohol solvents ordered by American companies for Christmas and New Year's Day.

According to preliminary statistics, the value of the lost goods is as high as more than 50 million US dollars, not including the value of the goods damaged on the ship. The total loss may be as high as 80 million US dollars or even 100 million US dollars.

After the accident, many cargo owners were extremely anxious. The biggest blow was when the cabinets fell into the sea, and the sellers who were forced to return with the ship were also very bitter.

The goods of a seller Maizi knew happened to be on this ship.

This seller is feeling miserable. He heard that selling on Amazon was profitable, so he sold his house in Shenzhen to start his own business. But now...

It is understood that this may be the accident with the most containers lost in a single incident since the MOL Comfort container ship broke in half and sank in 2013 (causing 4,293 containers to be damaged). This incident also sounded the alarm for many cross-border sellers and foreign trade people, and they should try to purchase insurance for goods shipped by sea.

The Christmas and New Year holidays are coming soon. Some freight forwarders have issued Christmas and New Year holiday notices for Europe/UK/US/Canada, reminding sellers to arrange shipments reasonably!

During the holidays, customs clearance and cargo pickup will be suspended and will resume as normal after the holidays. In addition, due to the Christmas and New Year holidays and bad weather in winter, some flights around Christmas and New Year will be affected to varying degrees, and some cargo transportation and delivery will be delayed to varying degrees.
