Capacity Limits New Seller
Hi,
I'm a new seller in the US market and I created my product and now I'm creating my first shipment. However, the system is only allowing me to send 15 cubit feet worth of inventory. This is of course very limited considering that I need at least 350 cubit feet.
Can any one confirm if there are any issues at this time when creating a new shipment as a new seller?
Thanks!
Carolina

It may be better to send in a smaller quantity first to make sure the units sell. Otherwise, you will have long-term storage fees and will possibly have to create a removal order to have the unsold products sent back to you or destroyed. Once you have established a relationship with Amazon, they will allow you to have more room

Hi @Seller_PQQ2hjhOn4Hxl,
Thank you for reaching out with this question and welcome to the forums! Happy to have you here. :)
Here is a breakdown of how capacity limits are set:
- Individual selling accounts have a capacity limit of 15 cubic feet; this limit doesn’t change and is not eligible to be increased.
- New professional selling accounts (active in FBA for less than 39 weeks) don’t receive FBA capacity limits. This allows you to establish your FBA sales record without limits so that we can determine how much capacity your FBA business needs as you grow.
- Professional selling accounts (active in FBA for more than 39 weeks) receive capacity limits based on IPI score and sales performance. Sellers with consistently higher IPI scores receive higher capacity limits, adjusted for sales volume and available capacity. Usage against your FBA capacity limits will consider your inventory on-hand at Amazon and open shipments on the way to our fulfillment centers, calculated in cubic feet.

Please let me know if this helps! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any additional questions.
All the best,
