Are any of y’all planning on going? I have zero interest in the presentations themselves, but do have an interest in the Seller Café sessions. I have several issues that I’ve tried to get resolved for months (in some cases, almost a year), such as pending removal orders, stuck inventory in FC processing, unresolved false inbound problems, a couple of large FBA shipment discrepancies not reimbursed, etc., and am thinking the Seller Café sessions might help resolving those. I went to the then called “Boost with FBA” event in NOLA back in 2018, and the one-on-one session was particulartly helpful to resolve problems that had been stuck for a long time.
This effing thing has frozen my seller App. Can’t get the registration off the screen and can’t access anything from my phone. I think I remember this happening last year too. Thanks Amazon. Not attending your POS event.
Just to add a little color to this so yall can enjoy my various plights.
I use a very old iPhone 4 on Wifi for one of my Amazon accounts. The screen literally isn’t big enough to dismiss the stupid advertisement for the event.
Had the bright idea to sign off on my bigger, albeit pretty old regular phone (6) and sign into the other account that’s on the really old phone to dismiss the ad in the hopes that it would be dismissed for the account. Didn’t work.
To be fair, Amazon typically focuses coding efforts of the latest & greatest updates of both devices and operating systems alike, so that paradigm probably goes far to explain what you and (perhaps?) that poster are experiencing.
I’ve been living with the following big red banner on top of the screen for over a year:
“Your operating system is no longer supported. Please upgrade your device to the latest operating system”
The problem - Apple is no longer supporting the 4 - LOL. So I can’t update it.
Sort of playing a game to see how long I can keep these phones going at this point.
Hopefully at some point Amazon stops pushing the Accelerate Ad. If not, oh well. I barely look at that Amazon account anymore. Trying to shut it down but it’s taking longer than expected to sell the remaining inventory and I know it will sell so don’t want to not make every penny I can on it before we close the business / account.
Methinks the Screeching Harpy is about to get hammered by U.S.-domiciled 1P and 3P Sellers who attend in person, or via their designated representative envoy(s)…and I wouldn’t want to be trailing Mary Beth’s or Ruslana’s petticoat-extension trains, nor Avi’s waist-coated tails, either…
OK, to bring his back (kind of) to a more serious question –
Have any of you guys been to one, and was there ANYTHING worthwhile?
Despite business being in the toilet I’m actually considering it just to be able to say that I’ve been to one. The other consideration is that this overlaps almost exactly with when my wife will be in Las Vegas with our son and (suddenly interested) Grandson for the store and the NRHSA convention. I actually have the chance to go there and it only costs the airfare since my wife will have a room on the company dime!
I’ve had a couple of the MODS invite me to register since I am still doing my best to slap silly sellers that are clueless. Maybe they are getting a bonus for getting people there!
