Inventory marked as Defective without reason
We have a product that a large amount was marked as DEFECTIVE from SELLABLE at the turn of the new year.
On 12/31/2022 our inventory for
SELLABLE - 6538
DEFECTIVE - 44
CUSTOMER_DAMAGED - 1
WAREHOUSE_DAMAGED - 0
DISTRIBUTOR_DAMAGED - 0
On 1/1/2023 our inventory was
SELLABLE - 976
DEFECTIVE - 5461
CUSTOMER_DAMAGED - 1
WAREHOUSE_DAMAGED - 1
DISTRIBUTOR_DAMAGED - 142
When I created a case with seller support they commented that “In regards to your concern we would like to inform you that we have cascaded the issue to our internal team and the have informed us that the units have been incorrectly labelled. There are labelling issues with the units received in shipment- FBAXXXXXXX.”
I checked on this shipment and there a few problems with their explanation. This shipment contained 4088 units of this SKU and was fully checked in and available for sale as of February 23, 2022. Additionally the “problems” from this shipment show that only 192 of the 4088 were “missing Amazon barcode” and that a €28.80 Unplanned service fee was charged to correct it.
Can anyone provide some advice on how to handle this? I have reached out to Amazon to try and explain the above, but they have been of no help.
Thanks!

I wanted to update everyone on what happened. @Nickolas_Amazon reached out and helped conduct an investigation. As it turns out there was a mistake at one of the FC’s where the Amazon employee put an FNSKU label on our product OVER our transparency code. When the product was then later checked in to another FC (months later) they could not scan the transparency code and marked the units as defective.
Amazon manually re-checked and labels all 5000+ units and put them back into my inventory after about a month.
I recommend consistently checking your inventory for anything that looks weird, as there was no notification or alert of this happening.
Currently, my Amazon transparency rep does not know the cause of why the label was covered in the first place, but is investigating.

Hi,
After spending all of my Sunday with amazon where I was told by almost all of the support team that I need to create removal and investigate it myself once I have the units, finally this morning somehow on one of the case id I got message that the issue has been passed to FC team to investigate and just now I saw all of sudden my 32 units out of 270 are now showing as available and they are still working on it so I hope this will be resolved soon.
I would suggest to keep pushing them and ask them for reason why they have been marked as defective and hopefully someone will eventually try to look into this for you.

Nickolas_Amazon, I have sent you a DM with our shipment Id and case number that we have the DEFECTIVE unit issue with. We are getting nowhere with Seller Support.
Our units appear to be stuck ‘In transit between warehouses’. This shipment is showing as closed and all units were received as of 1 March 2023 at 4:17 pm, but that is not the case, 26 units are marked as DEFECTIVE.
Please can you reply to my DM.
