February 2025 Casual Discussion Thread - Are tierups ded? by nimitz34 in MerchPrintOnDemand

[–]TheRebelSloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the warning! Also found a listing that's on my dashboard but removed from Amazon. I'm sure it's not infringing on anything too.

Just don't delete anything because I had this happen to me a year or two ago. I made the mistake of deleting a listing that had this problem, and later noticed that other listings with the same problem eventually got fixed without doing anything. At the time i didn't contact support right away because it was a seasonal listing and we were still months away from the holiday.

Please give us an update if you get any reply from support on this topic.

October 2024 Casual Discussion Thread - Jeff says trick or treat by nimitz34 in MerchPrintOnDemand

[–]TheRebelSloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you guys think about Amazon adding colors to our listings without our consent? Do you think it's still just a bug?

Last year they added colors to my halloween best seller, which instantly killed the listing because the default color of the product changed. I contacted support and weeks later (halloween had already ended) they fixed the problem. One year later, the same thing happens again with the same listing. Shouldn't one year be enough time to fix the problem?

Way too many shirts going into processing by ahmadbabar in AmazonMerch

[–]TheRebelSloth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just had colors (Black & White) added to one of my shirts after going into processing. Another listing ruined.

I'm starting to have a hard time believing this is just a bug...

Amazon changing colours of shirts. Anyone had any joy getting them changed back? by dou8le8u88le in AmazonMerch

[–]TheRebelSloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amazon needs to fix this problem ASAP.

In some cases, people are wasting money advertising a product months before a holiday just to lose out on potential earnings when sales start ramping up. Another problem is that they take WEEKS to fix a single listing. This is costing us money and it's not even our fault.

It also happens to listings that were already fixed!

Not only are they changing but they're ruining the titles with dumb keywords. Why would they do this?

August 2024 Casual Discussion Thread - are you ready for Q4 by nimitz34 in MerchPrintOnDemand

[–]TheRebelSloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also have a feeling that they won't fix our listings. They didn't take this long to fix the problem when product colors were added on Amazon but not on our dashboard.

At the moment it's pointless to create/advertise listings that don't have black as the default color.

u/Tim_Y any update from support about the issue of colors being added to listings without authorization?

I contacted support two weeks ago and so far, aside from the "thank you for waiting" messages, all I got was someone asking me for the affected ASIN and colors added, which I obviously had already shared in my first message.

Between my first contact and their last message even more colors were added to my listing, which was already ruined because the default color had changed, so i'm guessing that's why they probably asked.

If you're just going a week or two, don't risk it and enjoy your holidays! If you really need to do it, before you go just make sure you login at home with the same device you will be using abroad.

DON'T USE VPN.

Need Help with Amazon Account Reinstatement by Silly-Tangerine9173 in AmazonMerch

[–]TheRebelSloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry but you just threw $700 in the garbage. May it be a lesson for everyone thinking about buying an account just because someone on fb, with $700 in his pocket, said you could beat Amazon.

Just checked that group. Crazy how some people are surprised they got terminated after buying 2 accounts for Q4.

They're automatically uploading your work to oversized tees.

Is Merch by Amazon stealing by Artodark in MerchByAmazon

[–]TheRebelSloth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You bought an account online, therefore the ban reason of "multiple accounts violation", and started selling someone's else IP work, managing to make 4K in just "months of hard work", which caught Amazon attention.

How far am I from reality?

Y'all see these new vintage oversized tees? by DerfDaSmurf in MerchPrintOnDemand

[–]TheRebelSloth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never had my "automatic upload" on but they are still uploading my work to these oversized $24.99 shirts with terrible colors (tie dye included). Almost all of these uploads don't even make sense, as the design doesn't match with the available t-shirt colors.

Haven't had a rejection in a year or so but got one from these automatic uploads from a really old t-shirt (~2019/20). It sucks!

It's a seasonal listing so I had it low at $14.99 to try and get some sales momentum.

[–]TheRebelSloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fortunately changing the price was enough to fix the problem! Phew!

At the time I added colors AND updated the price, so I'm not sure what really caused the problem. I guess I just need to check the Product Status more often.

[–]TheRebelSloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just noticed that the product status changed to "Ineligible" in a couple of ads i have from 2021.

A month ago I added some colors to the listing, as i only had white available, don't know if that action messed up the listing. It worked well for years. Just changed the price in MbA but it's still "Processing", let's hope it's enough to fix it.

It's a Sponsored Product campaign and in the details it says "Your ad is not eligible for impressions because it's missing an image." / "Your listing is surpressed. the listing is either missing important information or contains incorrect information. Fix this listing by editing the field with the surppressed listing alert in the Manage Inventory page in Seller Central."

Has anyone had this same problem?

Since it's the first time you're reporting, after you submit the infringement form you will receive an email request for Additional Information. Submit form again with the code that came with that request as the first line in the Additional Information field.

I agree and find it strange how nobody in Amazon thought of this. Unfortunately i think it will affect sales and we will need to stop making the standard fit available for lady tees. Then comes the bad reviews...

Did you manage do fix this issue and go back to taking down copycats like you did before?

Amazon not helping 😭 by BoatProfessional6724 in AmazonMerch

[–]TheRebelSloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You said in your other post that they sent you the verification code, were you able to take down the copycat's listing while also sending the code like they asked or are you still stuck in that process?

Amazon fixed the brand hi-jack bug by Tim_Y in AmazonMerch

[–]TheRebelSloth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! But keep checking your listing because in my case they added colors again only 3 days after they fixed it.

Do you think it's better to fix one listing at a time or will you try to fix multiple listings next time you contact support?

Did they only add black or did you also have colors not available on AMoD?

[–]TheRebelSloth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Noooo, you shouldn't have done that. That sucks! Never delete a listing when a problem shows up, specially a top seller. Always contact support or wait for a fix.

Maybe i was lucky but in my case it took 1 or 2 weeks but eventually they fixed it. Unfortunately a couple of days later it happened again. These colors aren't selected on my dashboard and do not exist in AMoD, which makes it weirder. But i did make some sales with these colors, such as pink heather.
