yea the phone text worked, but the 2nd verification they have is an app that you scan the qr and it generates a code you put in the website, i did that. it doesnt work.

Is it a real long code?
Did you call seller support?
No, just 6 digits. And that's the exact amount of digits the wblebsite accepts.
I believe they no longer have phone support for sellers. Only support for seller is through the seller support central part of the website which I can't access.
No do some digging. They’re legally requires to have seller support. They’re just hiding the number
Hold up, how are y'all selling books FBA when the margins are like razor blades. Most of the profit use to come from textbooks and there was a severe crackdown a while ago gating books and required people to have authorized invoices from publishers. People were selling counterfeit books knowing/unknowingly and Amazon was buying them and banning accounts.
All them YouTube people be lying they asses off about that shyt. You would have to source about 150 books a week to really make profit with books FBA cause the fees are so high now and even then you'd have to get them dirt cheap like out of a dumpster cheap. If you could go back 4 years ago it would be totally different.
People be giving and information so folks aren't able to compete with them, most of them amazon experts don't sell shyt and make money of ad revenue from videos and selling tips that aren't relevant.

Most def. most those youtubers aren’t making money. But I posted an item that still has 400-600% margins. So plenty money to be made still.

Where y'all buying items in bulk?
yeah it's definitely money out there but you competing with Amazon themselves cause they using the sales data to find out what they can private label themselves then undercut sellers without patents, and Chinese sellers that just straight up steal yo shyt and sell it while enjoying state supplemented shipping rates.
If y'all brehs serious about messing with Amazon DON'T PAY FOR NOTHING, read everything that is free and that is all the info you need. The main shyt they don't tell you is how to deal with your taxes cause that is the area with the steepest learning curve. If folks knew about what you gotta do for taxes 85% of the people on there wouldn't mess with it.
It’s definitely an art. But it’s not that much of a doomsday scenario.
Most ppl can find an item to make 20k side net income a year. But most ppl won’t spend 1 hour a day for 2-3 weeks to get that item
. The only way to find a good niche item is too constantly go through about 20-30 unprofitable ones first. Researching doesn’t cost anybody any money. It’s just a time commitment
How the hell did u miss this beautiful thread?
Do you still sell? Why did you stop?
Yeah I did. I still do Ebay too. I wanna get back into it honestly.
No I don’t. I own my own business. If I see a random item I will check it occasionally. But I mainly just help my family and friends, if when they ask me for help.
Ppl still randomly message me on fb, asking for advice. I always give advice bc ppl have always helped me.
This, that's how I know all these nikkaz lying. The book hustle worked ten years ago on amazon, shyt everything worked on amazon
that's why you didn't see any youtubers selling courses and trying to be fba gurus in 2009 because the shyt was popping
amazon added so many rules they changed the game and the sellers who been there forever got a strong hold on everything, if you not hitting the first or second page you not selling shyt
you gotta make up a product completely unique and patent it
with the FBA fees, you gotta buy something for 4 dollars and sell it for 40, buying a book for 1 dollar and selling for 10 wouldn't even work, she you might make 2 or 3 dollars
