Amazon FBA Reimbursements – Amazon Owes You Money!

If you have been selling on Amazon using FBA, Amazon owes you money!

You are most likely entitled to an Amazon reimbursement if you’ve been selling products utilizing FBA.

FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) is an essential component for a majority of Amazon sellers. FBA allows the seller to store inventory in Amazon’s fulfillment centers so Amazon can pick, pack, ship, and provide customer service for the seller’s products.

Utilizing FBA helps your business be more efficient and makes your products eligible for Amazon Prime. But even though Amazon is one of the most respected online retailers, sellers don’t always get credited for inventory that slips through the cracks.

Why does Amazon owe FBA sellers money?

All of these situations can result in reimbursements:

• Customer was refunded more than the price they paid
• Item got lost or damaged in Amazon’s fulfillment center
• Item was destroyed without permission
• Amazon overcharged for the weight or dimensional fee
• Amazon reimbursed the customer but not the correct amount
• Item was damaged by carrier or Amazon
• Replacement was sent to customer or a refund was granted, but the order was never returned
• Amazon claims they have reimbursed the seller, even though they haven’t
• Amazon claims they restocked the item into your inventory, but they haven’t
• The wrong item is restocked into your inventory

How do Amazon FBA sellers file an Amazon reimbursement claim?

What NOT to do

You want to approach your Amazon reimbursement claims with caution. Simple mistakes can result in your Amazon seller account getting shut down.

The most important thing you should NOT do is use an automated FBA reimbursement tool to try to collect your refund. Amazon policy prohibits using automated tools to open cases. In addition, opening up too many cases at once can result in a warning or account suspension.

So this might leave you wondering, how do I get reimbursed from Amazon?
