Cross-border gossip | Another tragic follow-selling incident happened

On September 1, 2020, Amazon confirmed a new policy that it would publish detailed information of sellers on the store page . This undoubtedly made many sellers happy, especially for the behavior of copycat sales, and they always felt relieved. However, the unfortunate thing still happened...

A seller encountered another disgusting follow-selling incident ...

The thing is, several of this seller's products are rare in the market and the competition is not particularly fierce, so sales have always been good.

But one day he discovered that the shopping cart share of a certain link had always remained around 60% recently, and the sales volume of the product had also declined to a certain extent. After surveillance and software testing, he found that a store would regularly follow the sales in the middle of the night, but because the account was newly registered, there was no brand protection. In addition, everyone knew about follow-selling, and it was a policy allowed by Amazon. He tried his best but could not get rid of this store.

Just when he was at a loss, something even more bizarre happened. The seller's products suddenly received several complaints, some about safety, some about counterfeits, and some about second-hand goods. Although these complaints came from different customers, the time period of the complaints was very concentrated, which gave him a very ominous premonition.

As expected, the product was removed from Amazon not long after, and he lost the editing rights to the product. However, the copycat not only got away with it, but also took over the listing he had worked so hard to cultivate. He really wanted to shout to the heavens: "Where is justice!" The fruits of his hard work turned to ashes overnight, and anyone would be devastated.

The follow-up of the incident is still under further investigation. It is understood that the seller has found the follower through the supplier. As for what will happen next, it is estimated that there will be another fight...

Amazon sellers all know how important listings are to us. If you want to get them back, you must appeal to Amazon. The most annoying thing is that once the appeal fails, all the efforts you have put into this listing will vanish into thin air...

I believe that many sellers who pay attention to cross-border transactions have experienced this kind of thing, especially with the upcoming Amazon Prime Day event, there will definitely be another wave of cleaning up sellers. Therefore, this incident is not just for you to see some gossip, but also a reminder to all sellers. If you can apply for brand protection, try to apply for brand protection. Thinking more about how to minimize the malicious incidents of copycat sales is the best guarantee.

Dear sellers, what do you think about this matter?

Everyone is welcome to discuss actively.

Finally, I hope that every seller can be treated kindly by this world and realize their own poetry and distant places on Amazon.
