This site is "dead"! Just now, Amazon officially announced...

Amazon FBA has been in trouble recently. The US site has just stopped warehousing, and the Japanese site has restricted the inventory limit!

Recently, Amazon Japan suddenly notified buyers that it has decided to reset the inventory storage limit! The inventory limit for standard products has been changed to 500, and the inventory limit for large products has been changed to 259. The reason is that due to the busy business period at the end of the year, the inventory storage space of FBA warehouses has begun to approach the limit.

This change will take effect from December 11, 2019. When the inventory level reaches the upper limit, sellers will not be able to create new warehousing plans.

Moreover, Amazon continued its usual overbearing style with this notification, notifying and executing on the same day!

It can be seen that the notice was sent out on December 11th and was implemented on the same day. I can only say that my brother-in-law has really learned his lesson this time. After all, the American site received many complaints about what happened the day before yesterday, so now the Japanese site has changed its approach and adopted a restriction policy, which will be implemented on the same day, leaving you no chance to complain!

After the policy was announced, many buyers checked their inventory limits as soon as possible, but strangely, it seemed that each buyer’s limit was different!

The changed inventory limit is really a headache! It may not be enough for ordinary small sellers, let alone those big sellers with tens of thousands of orders!

What’s more, Christmas is coming, and many people are counting on this last wave of orders at the end of the year. Now, orders have not exploded yet, but the inventory will definitely explode.

The 500 inventory limit may put some sellers at risk of out-of-stock. Sellers can take the following measures:

Amazon has limited the number of inventory, and Japanese sellers are the first to be affected, but they will not be the last! Sellers should pay close attention to Amazon's background notifications, follow up their goods in transit and warehouse status in real time, arrange shipments reasonably, and avoid losses!
