Amazon My account was blocked for no reason. These people are cheating me! Internet

i am a new seller on amazon. i sell electronics and have an acctual store with a fed tax id number. i listed a few items that i have for dale. sortlyafter my account went into review. i submited my address and tax id number along with all the tracking numbers. they then lifted my review and re enstated my account. everything has been fine for about a week. i have sold about 7k worth of items. then today i get a norification saying my selling account has been suspended. what happens now to my money that i have in my account. they just hold it or will they transfer when they say they will. this is crazy how they do this. how can they review the account and then lift it and then out of nowhere suspend my account..

A malicious buyer went ahead and ordered something from my account whom I was not aware of, and did not check their reputation which was full of complaints.

They then proceeded to damage the product I sold to them deliberately, in that case a brand new camera but before it was DVDs, CDs, pretty much anything you can name - and then file an A to Z guarantee claim against my seller account implying I sent them broken merchandise not in perfect condition.

I had the pictures as proof showing it was exactly what they paid for, and the malicious buyer ended up causing a full refund against my account for the merchandise HE broke.

This combined with a mistake where I accidentally shipped something to a buyer that was in damaged condition, even after I issued a refund & promptly apologized was enough for Amazon to permanently close my account with no reasons specified.

This despite the fact there is proof the malicious buyer purchased from me with the intention of breaking my product, and it having happened to many others. And just like that a thousand plus dollars gone & I also managed to get all my other account information deleted so Amazon couldn't get a cent.


Talk about ridiculous, ANY class action against a company as arrogant as Amazon.com IS A VERY GOOD THING. Or ANYONE who is even SIMILAR to AMAZON.COM, such as EBAY, or ANY of those others, as they all treat people like dirt and abide by a bullshit policy of "LAW OF AVERAGES" even when the "LAW OF AVERAGES" is a license to basically steal!!!!! They are CRAP!

I just had my account closed, too. First, they suspended my account for having too many "not in stock" refunds - which was legitimate. Then they unsuspended it. After I successfully fulfilled 30 more orders without any refunds, they sent me email that my account was permanently closed and that I may no longer sell. I gave them an excel file of my orders with all tracking numbers which were delievered. They said the account will remain closed, that they will not provide any additional information and that any additional communication will not be answered. If there's more people, we need to file a lawsuit again amazon...

I have the same exact letter. I had the review and then blocked 2 days later. I have 100% feedback. Are you suing them? If so can i join forces becuase they blocked me and i have thousands of dollars in there. They are not willing to talk to me about it. They are also costing me alot of money in sales.

I understand your frustration. But as an Amazon consumer for 8 years, I have only had one bad experience and it wasn't due to amazon. It was due to a seller (a new company) that I made a purchase with. I emailed the company twice after a month and a half of not getting my product with no avail. Amazons A to Z saved me from getting screwed out of money. Hopefully you were not with that company. I sure hope you get everything worked out but remember some consumers are honest people who do not receive what was taken out of their account. And thanks to Amazons A to Z we didn't get screwed. Take care and good luck.

I also would join any action against amazon.com as they have done the same thing.

Everyone is right after a month of selling on Amazon they blocked my account stating I wasn't a "pre approved" seller. Now in that month I had several conversations on the phone with Amazon Representatives NONE of which told me I needed to be pre authorized. Additionally when I researched if further on Amazon.com I found out they Amazon "isn't accepting applications for pre approval anymore" They are blocking people from becoming sellers on amazon, but not right away, only after they make some money off of you first. I don't know that much about it but I would think these kind of practices would be some kind of Anti-Trust violation, they are forcefully blocking out anytype of competitive selling on Amazon.com. Please keep me informed of any actions that might be taken against them.

Response to: Thefinalattempte,

I was accused of selling copied DVDs by a Buyer.
Oddly enough, I listed my DVDs using the BAR CODE Number on the back of the Cases. - The EXACT SAME DVDs that other sellers are listing w/no problems at all.
In fact, I share a Supplier with one of my former competitors, yet somehow, MY DVDs are copies/bootlegs, and his aren't? - And neither are any of the other sellers who list DVDs with the same Bar Code numbers as mine??? Where's the logic in this?

I will be filing a seperate Rip-Off Report, tomorrow, with all the details of what happened. (It's quite late for me, right now, and having my Seller Account terminated has affected my, already, poor health). - Since I'm ill/housebound, I cannot go out and find another type of employment. - I cannot sell on eBay, because I'd be competing against all the Suppliers. Other online marketplaces don't generate nearly as much traffic as Amazon does. So, not only am I stuck with Inventory I cannot sell, I've also lost my only means of being able to earn some extra money to help put my kids through college.

Anyway; I will be making a full report tomorrow.

Good Luck.

They did me same way
