Up to now they were telling anyone who wanted to ship directly to FBA warehouse to use Samuel Shapiro and Co., Inc.
I still have a stack of paperwork from them back when I was considering shipping some items by container from Japan.
- ripberge 11y agoThe big question is, if you're a Chinese factory and you want to sell directly on Amazon's marketplace, don't you still need an "importer" of record? I do recall hearing about this mysterious Samuel Shapiro Co as well. Is that going to change? If the goods are sitting in Amazon's warehouse, does the Chinese factory still legally own them? Who gets sued if they're defective?
