Why haven’t you started your own brand anon?

No dropshipping bullshit. I started my own product line 5 years ago, stock my own inventory, and keep 100% of profits.

5 years of hard work and reinvesting profits now I make more than most professions and work on my own time.

- chinese sucks ass in negotiation.
-They tell you what to do and where to sell. You are my supplier fucker you work for me!
-amazon takes 30% of whatever you sell, taxes take 35% and shipping is expensive as fuck.
-basically you work for amazon or ebay whenever they want and without a warning they can kick you out.
-in order to eat the shipping insane cost you have to order over 40k worth of merchandise and pray god your supplier is legit. I saw some guys crying they lost all their savings.

Yeah I can continue with that.

FBA sounds great but you dont have control over your inventory. Amazon pair all the shitty crap and piggybackers with you so whenever someone order from another seller they ship a shitty quality product that is not yours and amazon blames you. Then they suspend your account until you probe they are wrong and that cost you at least 3k.
Whenever a nigger complaints bout your product amazon FBA give them back their money and is more expensive for you taking it back so niggers kept their money and your product.
They are not responsible for anything it happens to your product while is in their warehouses if gets damaged somehow is your fault.
When they ban you because their algorithm is stupid as fuck they give you a few days to ship all that shit back to your house if not they destroy it or keep it to resell.
