Is it possible to sell on Amazon without using their Ad service or should I quit?

My advertising has stopped because Amazon can't "pre-authorise" my card. I have had the same bank account and the same card for over 2 years without any problems. I have followed their steps to resolve the issue but I end up on a merry-go-round.

Is offsite advertising enough to generate sales on Amazon? If not then my only option is to walk away.

Is Amazon Going To Start Offering SBA Loans 🤔?

🚨Finally, Amazon says Amazon Lending will open to every seller by the end of 2026, removing the invitation requirement. New options include lines of credit and SBA 7(a) loans of up to $5 million, with sellers potentially able to use multiple financing products for different needs.
For now, these features are limited to the U.S., but Amazon says it plans to add more channels and capabilities.🚨

I happened upon the above information in a broker’s newsletter last week … Anyone know anything about this ?

Selling FBA Account

Established US Amazon FBA Business for Sale

Serious buyers only please. I am looking for a straightforward and relatively quick sale, so please only get in touch if you have genuine acquisition intent and are in a position to proceed. Full supporting information and Amazon financial reports are available for due diligence.

Overview

Established US Amazon FBA business operating on the Amazon.com marketplace and available for a quick sale.

The product has significant trading history, with 16,000+ units sold, $113,000+ in historical FBA product sales and 786 customer reviews averaging 4.5 stars.

Product listing can be shared. The product is available in three colour variants.

I am looking for a straightforward exit as I no longer have the time or appetite to continue investing in and operating the business.

Asking price: $3,500 USD

I am open to sensible offers from serious buyers who can move quickly.

Key Numbers

• 16,000+ units sold • $113,454 historical FBA product sales • 786 reviews averaging 4.5 stars • 91% positive seller feedback • Approximately $25,000 historical Amazon advertising spend • Current supplier COGS approximately $1.40 to $1.51 per unit • Approximately 162 units currently remaining in stock • Three colour variants • Established Amazon listing and trading history • Established manufacturer and supply chain • Gitchens.com domain included

Current Position

For complete transparency, sales have reduced significantly and the listing is currently doing very little volume, with approximately 7 sales in the last 30 days.

This is not being sold as a currently profitable or passive income business. The value is in acquiring an established Amazon asset with substantial historical sales, 786 existing reviews, listing history, supplier infrastructure and remaining inventory.

The business has not been profitable overall. A significant factor was PPC performance, with approximately $25,000 historically spent on Amazon advertising.

The opportunity is therefore best suited to someone with Amazon experience who believes they can improve PPC, optimise the listing and positioning, or introduce additional SKUs while benefiting from the existing infrastructure and trading history rather than starting from zero.

Supplier

An established manufacturer is already in place.

The supplier has been excellent to work with, is highly responsive and has consistently provided reliable manufacturing, quality and delivery.

The supplier relationship, introduction, sourcing information and relevant product information will be handed over to the buyer.

What’s Included

• Existing Amazon FBA product operation • Existing Amazon product listing and associated history • Approximately 162 remaining units of inventory • 786 existing product reviews • Established supplier relationship and introduction • Product and sourcing information • Three existing colour variants • Gitchens.com domain

The existing legal entity that currently holds the Amazon account is not included in the sale.

Transfer Approach

The intention is to transfer the agreed FBA operation and associated assets without selling the existing legal entity.

A written agreement will be put in place between both parties before completion covering the purchase, transfer approach, responsibilities and clear separation of historic and future liabilities.

The practical Amazon account and listing transition process will be agreed between both parties before completion.

Reason for Sale

I simply want to exit and focus my time and capital elsewhere.

Given the current sales level, I would rather price the opportunity realistically and complete a straightforward sale than continue investing additional time and money into rebuilding it myself.

For someone with the right Amazon experience, this provides an opportunity to acquire an established US Amazon product with 16,000+ historical unit sales, $113,000+ in historical sales, 786 reviews, remaining inventory and an established supply chain rather than building everything from zero.

Price

$3,500 USD

Reasonable offers considered for a quick transaction.

Full Amazon financial reports and supporting information can be provided to serious buyers for due diligence.

Selling for a loss

I am a new seller trying to do FBM. I’m searching for only auto ungated products but everything just seems like it’s being sold for a loss? I see new sellers selling products for 2 dollars more than what they are buying for. Is that what new sellers have to do now? Sell for a loss until their account health is good enough to finally be able to ungate better products?

Amazon PPC: 3 Weeks, 2,800 Impressions, 15 Clicks but 0 Sales – Is This Normal?

Hi everyone,

I recently launched a new product on Amazon and have been running an automatic PPC campaign for about three weeks now.

My daily budget is €10.

So far, the numbers look like this:
Around 2,800 impressions
15 clicks
CPC: €0.58
CTR: 0.53%
0 sales so far

In my opinion, the listing itself looks solid. The product images are professional, the copy is clear, and I don’t think the price is the main issue.
What surprises me is that after three weeks, I still haven’t generated a single sale.

I’m still relatively new to Amazon PPC, so I’d really appreciate some feedback from people with more experience.

Would you consider these numbers normal for a new product?

Would you keep the automatic campaign running for longer, or would you already start making changes, for example adjusting the bids or adding a manual campaign?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

3 weeks into my Amazon launch (beauty/personal care, $17.99): ads at 87% ACOS, ~7% conversion. What would you change?

Looking for honest feedback from people who've launched in beauty/personal care. I'm about 3 weeks in and I want to make sure I'm not wasting money.

THE PRODUCT
A small, single-SKU beauty/personal care product. FBA, US marketplace. Listed at $17.99. COGS is $2.70 landed, FBA + referral fees are $6.56, so about $8.73 profit per sale before ads. Currently 13 reviews, 4.5 stars.

LAUNCH
I used Vine for the first batch of units, so my first week of "sales" isn't real demand. Real, paid orders since then: 8.

ADS (Sponsored Products, \~$20/day budget per campaign, started Sept 17)
\- Auto, Manual (exact/phrase/broad), and Product Targeting (competitor ASINs)
\- Lifetime: $94 spend, 88 clicks, \~$1.07 CPC, 6 ad orders, \~$108 ad sales
\- Ad ROAS 1.14 / ACOS 87%. Total ACOS including organic is around 65%
\- Break-even for me is about 48% ACOS (ROAS \~2.06)
\- Click to order is about 7%. Listing conversion in Business Reports is roughly 6 to 9%
\- Best campaign: Manual (ROAS \~1.7). Worst: Product Targeting (ROAS \~0.6)

WHAT I'VE ALREADY DONE
\- Added negative keywords for unrelated products and for variants I don't sell
\- Paused competitor ASIN targets that spent with zero sales
\- Raised the bid on my best exact keyword to $1.55
\- Top-of-search bid adjustments: 10% on PT, 25% Auto, 50% Manual
\- Rewrote title, bullets, and backend terms, and I'm building A+ content now
\- Ran a 15% coupon (redeemed once so far)

WHERE I'M STUCK

  1. Price: a friend says I'm underpriced. The bigger brands in my category charge $22 to $30 for a comparable size, while the cheap small ones are $8 to $10. I'm thinking of testing $21.99 to $22.99. Should I wait for reviews first, or test now?
  2. Prime event timing: it's Prime deal days right now. I'm leaving my price alone until it ends, because I don't want to test during deal-hunter traffic or confuse my coupon. Is that right, or should I raise the price during the event while traffic is high?
  3. How many real reviews do you want before you scale ad spend? I'm at \[X\].
  4. Is $1.00+ CPC realistic for this category, or am I bidding too high? Amazon's suggested bids for my main terms are $1.50 to $3.
  5. Is Product Targeting worth keeping at this stage, or should I put that budget into Manual/Exact?
  6. Any tools or guides you'd recommend for keyword research? I scraped autocomplete and page-1 results, but I don't have search volume data yet.
  7. What would you focus on in the next 2 weeks?

I'm not promoting anything. I'd rather hear what you got wrong in your own launch. Thanks in advance for any tips or links to good guides.

Need a fulfilment company to handle overflow inventory before amazon's storage limits wreck my ipi score again

Same problem every year around this time. Selling home organization stuff on fba primarily, storage limits kick in and then ipi score creeps toward the penalty threshold, and I end up paying stupid overage fees just to keep listings live.

I want a fulfillment company that can hold overflow inventory outside amazon's system and handle prepping it so I can send smaller batches into fba as needed, instead of dumping everything into amazon storage at once and eating the fees every single year.

Anyone has a solution for this?

What's your real net margin after PPC and Amazon fees?

Referral fees are 15% in most categories; peak fulfillment fees add about $0.32 per unit from Oct 15 to Jan 14, plus the 3.5% fuel surcharge; storage goes up in Q4, and PPC sits on top of it all. A product that shows 35% on a sourcing sheet can end up in single digits once you count everything.

What's your real net margin after PPC and Amazon fees, and which cost made the biggest dent?

How do you deal with over regulated categories?

Hello guys.

I am still in the beginning of my journey on selling on Amazon UK.

Right now I am researching products using Helium 10.
Every product that I find is somehow over regulated. I mean for example I saw someone selling a game cards, with only 1 picture on amazon and only 7 reviews, still making 10k revenue a month. And I was like HOW? You don't even understand what kind of game it is. It has literally only 1 picture, a short title and no description of the product and still making 10k.

So I decided I will look into it, and started checking what regulations are there to sell this product. Seems you have to do (Testing, Inspection, and Certification through Amazon-approved TIC. Because it goes under Toys category.

I mean almost every category I check and then read through or ask AI about regulations, seems there are dozens of regulations. I mean how do you guys deal with these regulations? Especially for Beauty and Health there tons of regulations.

Also do you guys think I really have to register a LTD in UK for selling on Amazon UK? I am based in Germany.

Thank you in advance.

What are the must-have tools for listing optimization?

Hello guys I'm starting on amazon FBA and i'm looking for the best tools (paid or free) for amazon listing optimization (to optimize the title, description, bullet points or so) but more concrete to analyze the keywords (one by one) and i'm looking for a tool or way to analyze keywords that lets me know which keywords work and which ones dont from the ones I actually have on the listing.

Is there any tool that lets me do that with listing optimization and keywords researching/analysis?

Thanks in advance!

Anyone else's Sponsored Products blew past the daily budget — mine shows $61.47 against a $40 cap on a single calendar day?

I set a $40 daily budget on a Sponsored Products campaign and let it run. The dashboard shows $61.47 spent on the 14th, then straight back under $40 the next morning, and the rest of the week lands right on target. I don't open the ads tab daily, so I only caught it while reconciling September — which makes me wonder how many of these one-day spikes I've already paid for without noticing. Does your invoice ever match the cap, or do you just budget around the blown days? Anyone else seeing this?

Tips for ungating Sony/PS

Hi guys, returned to Amazon FBA after a 2 year hiatus, a lot of stuff that I was previously ungated for like Sony, PlayStation, Lego etc are now gated. Not hard gated but need an invoice for 10 units.

Anyone know of any UK distributors to help me ungate some of these brands? Or do I just buy 10 of the cheapest thing directly from PlayStation and use the invoice?

Thanks in advance

A few Amazon FBA questions — would appreciate advice from experienced sellers

I’m currently learning Amazon FBA and came across a few things I’m still confused about:

If we get approval to sell a particular brand, can we source that same product from Alibaba/another manufacturer, or do we need to keep buying inventory directly from the approved brand/distributor?

For a new seller with 0 reviews, how does Buy Box work? If established sellers already have lots of reviews and sales history, how can a new seller realistically win the Buy Box?

Suppose I’m approved to sell a brand and I run Amazon PPC ads for that product, but another seller currently has the Buy Box. If a customer clicks my ad and purchases, does the sale go to me or the seller who has the Buy Box?

Would really appreciate a clear explanation, especially from sellers who have actually dealt with this. Thanks!

Is it Worth It

I am in the early stages of considering setting up an Amazon store. I currently own a business and am looking to get out of it in the next 2 years. It is seasonal so I have more time in winter to get this up and running. My question is should I pay for one of the courses that are out there? Is it worth it? Meaning can I realistically generate $5k a month from this. I know that’s a broad question given that nobody know me and everyone is different. I have a couple grand to get started and once I see traction I would be able to invest more. Another question, Is this arena saturated already?

How to possibly integrate our existing business with FBA - Most items we sell are $2 or less

I feel like I'm getting analysis paralysis from all of the reading and videos on selling on Amazon. I kind of want to just jump in to it, but I also don't want to end up upside down.

Right now, we already have a warehouse and sell to distributers. Most of our items are relatively compact and on average around $2.

I was thinking of maybe trying FBM first during this time and then figuring out which items might be good for FBA.

Maybe ship a case of a few items and see how they work out? My somewhat concern doing this is if Amazon ends up requiring me to ship to different warehouses, which would possibly be costly, but also possibly acceptable.

Looking for thoughts and suggestions from maybe those who were in a similar situation.

Will this change come back and bite me later? (Profit margin change)

I haven't been doing many sales (FBA wholesale) and only doing around 50 sales a day or so. I used to set my min prices depending on what I felt was right for the listing and I struggled against bigger sellers. Yesterday I switched all my listings to around 17% profit margian and my volume movers (2-4 listings) to 10- 15 percent. My sales SPIKED. But here comes the scary part. Am I making a mistake? Will this come back and bite me with refunds? Or should I continue to do this and it'll workout. I need some expert to look at this.
