Dear new Amazon sellers,

I want to share my experience with you and warn you about the pitfalls of starting your ecommerce journey on Amazon. While it may seem like a convenient platform to reach a large customer base, there are many reasons why I believe it is not the best place to start.

Firstly, Amazon has a reputation for losing inventory without taking responsibility for finding it quickly. When they do reimburse you, they often pay less than what you have already invested in the lost items. This can be frustrating and costly for small businesses trying to make a profit.

Secondly, Amazon has the power to close your listing without explanation. If this is done in error, they never reimburse you for the lost sales and ranking that you have worked hard to achieve. This lack of communication and accountability can have a negative impact on your business and financial stability.

Lastly, Amazon claims to be your selling partner but often treats sellers as mere sources of revenue. The seller support team is not always helpful or knowledgeable, and they may even close chat sessions before resolving your issue. This level of support is unacceptable and can hinder your ability to succeed on the platform.

In conclusion, I urge new sellers to consider alternative ecommerce platforms that prioritize transparency, communication, and fair treatment of their sellers. Don't let Amazon take advantage of your hard work and investment – find a platform that values your business and supports your growth.

Best of luck on your ecommerce journey,
