An ASIN you are listing on has been identified as an incorrect variation.

The email says I don’t have to do anything. But this is concerning.

Listing of said ASIN in question has not changed.

No Performance/Health Notifications.

I’m won’t to contact Support because the likelihood of something negatively impacting my account is presumably high.

I believe things like this have been discussed here, so if anyone has better recall than me, please point in the right direction.

Don’t Contact Brazil … Repeat … Don’t Contact Brazil !

It say “an ASIN that you are listing on” which implies that you didn’t create the listing but have an offer on it.

In addition, there is no reference to which ASIN it is … so there is no way for you to know which listing.

If this came via your email, check the email headers.

Other than that … we wouldn’t do anything but watch Performance Notifications for now.

So it does tell me the ASIN at the bottom of the email but I see no changes to the listing nor any health notifications. Full email

Just watch the Account Health notifications … nothing to do until it shows up.

I wouldn’t be overly concerned. Amazon sends glitch emails to us all the time lately. Like this one that we get every few weeks. I’ve checked, it’s a legit email from Amazon. SAS manager says disregard.

The crazy part is the interpretation of how that email combo gets sent out. Because your stranded inventory no longer has access to being sold as it is set for automatic removal - they send out a whole a$$ email on suspended selling privileges…that’s insane!

Yea, and we didn’t have anything stranded to boot…

So they separated my children from the parent. Luckily the children are still active. In the past I was advised to set up the current variation theme by seller support because the correct variation theme did not exist. I guess now that Amazon is enforcing variation themes - they made the correct variation available. So I’ve appealed the policy violations which are low but I want proof that they approve creating a new variation family using the same parent and children but with a different theme.

The only way to do so would be to delete the parent (ghost) ASIN?

I don’t see another method through the UI

I got a lot of these notifications after the Handmade Recategorization. Something changed and they were now in violation when they were fine before. I had to take the slap on the wrist and swear I would not do that anymore. Deleted all parents and rebuilt the listings and all was well, and reviews were retained.
