To Whom It May Concern,I am writing regarding Amazons latest documentation request for ASINs B073GMCGHP, B07MZGQLH9, B06XPPP4M2, B081QQ4RZB, and B002CQU550. I believe Amazon is violating my right to entrepreneurship by meaningless requests for inventory checks. I strongly disagree with the decision to start a review on these ASINs and consider it unrightful. I will provide my reasons further.I will describe the situation briefly here, but I can't express everything in this form due to the character limit. So please look into the attached "Appeal BBB" file for more details on this ******* start, ASINs B073GMCGHP and B081QQ4RZB were never in my inventory. I never listed these products. Therefore, its unclear how I should provide documents for the items I never ********* the notification, Amazon says that this review is to check the authenticity of Fulfillment by Amazon items in my inventory. However, none of the mentioned products has ever been in ***. As I said previously, ASINs B073GMCGHP and B081QQ4RZB were never in my inventory. And ASINs B07MZGQLH9, B06XPPP4M2, and B002CQU550 were only listed as FBM. Considering this, I do not understand why, as a part of an FBA inventory review, they would ask for documents for FBM products.On January 31st, Amazon issued a review for the mentioned ASINs and *************** brand on my account. We have successfully passed the review and were allowed to sell this product. I consider the second request in one month to be too much attention to the products, for some strange reason. Considering these facts, I can clearly state theres been a mistake. I cannot provide documents for the products I never listed and have already provided the needed documents for the products I actually sold just three weeks ago. Therefore, I kindly ask Amazon to withdraw your request for video verification or consider this video verification successful and allow me to sell my products without any risk of ***************** regards.

I wanted to purchase author copy of a short story I wrote on Amazon self publishing. The book was going to cost me $2.30. I wanted to qualify for free shipping and therefore decided to get some toiletries along with the books then later realized I would still have to pay a fee for the books. I still went ahead and purchased the items with a total of $62.10 I was alarmed today reviewing my credit card to see a charge from amazon for $454.65 and when I went to see I noticed I had been charged $361.80 for shipping !!! I called customer service who hung on me after telling me they couldnt reverse that because I didnt select free shipping. Now even if that was the case. What does it close to shop some toilet paper and paper napkins? I am a single mom with four children I have left in ***** to work across the state and this is just unethical and I cant believe this is whats happening to regular people such as myself. Again the reason I added the few toiletries I could have easily bought from my Local grocery store is for the free shipping not for me to be taken for $361 for shipping. This is UNETHICAL and unacceptable.

Hello,

I'm Naveen from Amazon.com writing behalf of ********. I'm writing in response to a complaint filed on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I've provided the BBB with a copy of this message.

I'm very sorry to hear about the frustrating experience that you've had recently with our team regarding your order # ***-0998411-2267402. I can certainly understand your request and to help you with this, I have looped in our internal team and got an update on the request as below:

I realize you're disappointed that we're unable to grant your shipping reduction request. Most orders shipping benefits are available with Amazon Prime subscription. As there is no prime subscription on your account the standard shipping is charged. Be sure you select the "FREE Shipping" option when ordering. If the option doesn't appear on your order form, the order may not contain eligible items.

Thanks for your patience and understanding in this regard.

Items have been returned but never refunded. Amazon refused refunds for both orders since they partially reimbursed the bank for one of the orders in a chargeback.

On December 6th, 2025, I purchased a Solo Stove Yukon 2.0 27" smokeless fire pit on Amazon. The sales order with Amazon is 112-8061356-2862655 and purchased for $509.99. This package was delivered to a hotel (XV ************- *********************************) in ****** instead of our home in ******* by mistake and this address error was not caught during the ordering process. We were staying at the hotel at the time of the order and had just placed an order with Whole Foods the day before and the address saved but wasn't caught during this order. Per the driver of from Amazon, the package was delivered on 12/13/2025 and left near the front door or porch. However, the female employee at the hotel concierge informed me when I called them that they (1) rejected the package and (2) the female driver for Amazon left with the package and it was NOT left near the front door. I contacted Amazon on 12/14/2025 to inform them of this mistake and they told me they would refund my account in 7-10 business days. I went ahead and ordered another stove based on this information. In January, I called Amazon to inform them I had not received a refund, but they informed me that it was not possible now. It is now a theft/stolen goods situation, and I needed to file a police report. I contacted the A1 precinct in ****** ************** and they stated I needed to file a report in person only but since I live in *******; to file the report at my local police precinct. Once filed, my precinct would forward the information to the detectives in ******. I filed this report in ******* and too allow a few weeks for the report to be processed and the case record to be sent to ******. I contacted Amazon to inform them of the long, but they now informed me my timeline to file with Amazon has passed and there is nothing they can do. The police are still working on this but based on the value and their workload, I have zero idea on timing for this resolution.

Hello ******,

I'm ******* from Amazon.com. I'm writing in response to a complaint filed on your behalf by the Better Business Bureau BBB - I've provided the BBB with a copy of this message.

I'm sorry to know your package was missing.

After careful review, I see that correct information is already shared. As the deadline for the submission of the Police Report was only up until 11-February-2025. Therefore we aren't able to provide a refund/replacement for this order at this time.

In this case, I'd suggest that you please reach out to bank for options.

Thank you for your understanding.

Complaint: 22952410

I am rejecting this response because I informed AMAZON of this issue on December 14th. The first ******** did NOT provide accurate information when they said I would receive a full refund in 7-10 business days. Due to the holidays, I waited until early January to contact Amazon again to inform them I had not received the refund. The ******** "saw these notes" regarding my call on 12/14/24 but then informed me I would need to file a police report. After working with the Boston PD and the local PD in *******, the report was filed and informed AMAZON of the case file when I received the case record.
All of this takes time BUT I informed AMAZON well in advance of 2/11/2025 of the potential theft by their ********(s) so I will NOT accept that the deadline has passed. AMAZON should be held accountable to their ********s and work with their customers especially when the customer did NOTHING wrong.
Sincerely,

I purchased a litter box from amazon on sale but pieces were missing so I got a replacement ordered. I decided I would just use the original litter box even with missing pieces so I initiated a return for the replacement litter box on January 16th. In email and on the app Amazon told me I had until February 1st to drop off the return which I did. They received the return on the 5th, but then they charged me $79.49 on the same date even though I dropped off the litter box at *** to return in the timeframe given. I talked to customer service on February 6th and they said they would give me a refund in 5-7 days, its been 8 days and it now says refund is expected on the 23rd. I just want a refund they charged me $79.49 when they recieved their item back already and they keep pushing off when I will get my money back.
