Buying Amazon Seller Accounts Can Result in Related Account Suspensions
If you bought your Amazon account or you bought a business with an Amazon account associated with it, this breaking news is for you.
Over the past few weeks, we have seen multiple sellers who purchased their Amazon accounts or purchased a business that had an Amazon account associated with it get suspended. The reason why these accounts are being suspended is that they are being related to other Amazon accounts. It could be related to an Amazon account that was owned by the person or company that sold you your business. It could be that your account is being related to a new Amazon account or a new Amazon based business that was created by the seller of your business after selling the business to you.
We’ve seen these suspensions roll in within months after the Amazon seller has bought the account/business and even years after they closed on the sale of the business.
Here’s what we’re telling sellers suffering from this particular type of suspension:
We are advising the suspended Amazon sellers that contact us to reach out to whomever they bought the Amazon business from and see whether or not they had accounts before or after your closing. We are also recommending to Amazon based businesses that if you’re in the market to buy another account, if you’re looking for an Amazon based business to purchase, that you use a brokerage firm called Empire Flippers.
Now, full disclosure. I don’t get anything at all from Empire Flippers for promoting their services. I think they are just the best Amazon based business brokerage firm, the best online business firm, that exists because they have a tremendous vetting process, both for the sellers of Amazon based businesses and other online businesses as well as the buyers.
Their vetting system prevents a lot of tire kickers. It also prevents you from buying a business that might have unknown problems. I also want you to know that if the people/companies that you bought your businesses from deny having accounts before the close or after the close, it doesn’t necessarily mean you’re dead in the water, but these are very complex cases because Amazon does not permit you to buy or sell its Amazon accounts. So you have to be really careful how you handle these cases.
