Amazon has its reputation to uphold. It will not tolerate even the slightest infringement of its policies by sellers. It will not tolerate poor performance in any way, whether it is sales, customer service, speed of shipment or resolution of returns. It will not let negative comments by customers pass unheeded. The seller is penalized. The penalty is deactivation of account if seller persistently continues to ignore issues despite notifications and warnings. Then again, Amazon’s automated algorithms track sellers and may automatically block an account or even deactivate it.

Prior to such deactivation, it is the usual practice for Amazon to intimate you that there is something wrong. You will see the reason specified. You are given time to act and rectify the issue. Amazon also calls so be sure to pick up the phone because if you do not then they are not likely to call again. The phone conversation itself should give you directions on what you need to do to avoid account deactivation. However, in many cases, sellers notice that their account is deactivated. In that case, you will need to start processes to get your account reactivated. Till then Amazon will block your account, your payment and your inventory. If it is because of counterfeit inventory then you cannot hope to ever get it back because they will forfeit your payment as well as destroy inventory and also take legal action if so advised.

The issue of reactivation can be a long drawn out one. Meanwhile, your payment is blocked and you cannot hope to get it until resolution of the matter. Worse, your inventory is locked up. Further, you will be pursuing reactivation and resolution with seller performance team but unfortunately, they do not have it in their power to release inventory. You wait for inventory to show up as stranded and approach Amazon for return for which, if they agree, a fee is chargeable. However, this may not work until the account is reinstated and, if Amazon team decides against you then they may initiate inventory return or inform you that your inventory is confiscated and lost for you.

It is best to try for account reactivation. Send out a primary email assuring full cooperation and compliance and request time and guidance from Amazon. Prepare a Plan of Action by identifying the deficiencies that led to deactivation and assure Amazon as to steps you have taken or are taking to remedy this and prevent its future recurrence. If you are convincing enough your account may be restarted.

Open your amazon seller account and go to manage inventory tab. See the listing status of your order whether its active or inactive. If the product is inactive then please active that product and if it shows active then Buy box is a crucial factor to increase the visibility of your products. You can also check product listing by using the Edit listing button.
