Get some influencer to share their storefront with their brilliant idea to complain about “not for sale on amazon” to get the product for free, and the problem should resolve itself shortly.
As a seller I would stay far far away from that, but if buyers want to file legitimate complaints, go for it.
So of all the things they did wrong, looks like feedback manipulation was what got em? Don’t think it’s coincidence that the feedbacks are gone at roughly the same time they got shut down. I haven’t checked since last week but they were still up and running (and feedbacks were there) at that time.
Which FB/Telegram groups did you see them posting about their suspension on?
Easiest cut and dry to prove. Or maybe the second suspended account finally took out the first one. Associated account suspensions are never instantaneous.
I have not. I barely FB, and not touching Telegram, I am just guessing here
If it was a related account suspension I don’t think they would remove the feedback. The way Amazon is siloed and automated, if an action was taken on something specific then that’s most likely the reason.
Well, if the theory that his shady VA service was behind this because he didn’t pay their bills is true, good luck getting their help with getting reinstated.
It’s also possible they were buying from themselves with their seller account. The name on the reviews did match their business name. That would also trigger a violation.
If this theory is true, they’re probably not doing it as an F U, but more likely as blackmail to get them to pay what they owe + additional “services” needed now…
May be because he really is BIG? Amazon always seems to favor big sellers over little ones. Take feedback. Feedback used to be the average since started. Now it is only the last year. I have thousands of 5 star feedbacks but that doesn’t matter.
Feedback are constantly rolling over (more than 1 year old).
Now I have a little over 100. So a single negative hurts me.
If i am a BIG seller with 10,000 feedback in the last 365 days, getting a negative feedback doesn’t change anything with my feedback rating.
