Can I sell print on demand books on Amazon?
I have several books which I believe are print on demand books. Books are in NEW condition never used.
But I have never sold these before. See the picture and you can tell how I know it is print on demand. It is the barcode at the very end page and the books are usually paperback. So can I sell them on Amazon? Is there a Amazon policy that prevents us selling them?

As long as this item is legit and you list this item on a proper listing that correctly reflects what product you are selling, Amazon actually argues in favor of you being allowed to sell this on the Amazon catalog.
You just have to use Seller Central as opposed to Amazon KDP.

They are not New. They are pre-owned. Thus not new.
But you have been selling long enough to know that.

Hi there @Seller_8TlCpNhHELXAz,
In general if the products are authentic and the UPCs are valid you should be able to list them without issue. However you will need to ensure you have the appropriate sourcing and invoices for this inventory and that you are listing them correctly with accurate conditions.
Given the status of the units they may not be in proper pristine new condition, particularly if you did not get them directly from a distributor.
Please be careful when listing these products to ensure you are confident on the source of this inventory. The issue isn't if they are from a Print on Demand service, but if the products can be authenticated and are sourced properly. Thank you for your understanding.
