1. Products to Avoid

Before starting this lesson, download and print the PDF of the list of products to

avoid (included with the lesson video). Avoiding these items will save you time

and money. This list includes products that could be incredibly competitive,

have patent issues, import issues, etc.

Included in the PDF is a list of general product types. While you can still pick an

item from this list,

use caution and do research

before moving ahead.

Easily Breakable

Products made of glass or a fragile material can cause issues with returns.

While the responsibility of shipping is with Amazon, having too many returns

will reflect poorly on your business and isn’t good for the health of your

account.

You can still move forward with this type of product, but you will need to make

sure your product is well packed, which might cut into your profit margin.

Hazmat

These products are usually combustible or dangerous to ship. Amazon does

not permit FBA shipments for these kinds of products, so we recommend you

stay away from any product of this type.

Lithium Ion Batteries

Lithium ion battery products fall under the hazmat issue due to the type of

battery. Products with lithium batteries usually have to be shipped via ship

because they can’t be shipped by air.

Products with lithium batteries are sometimes not eligible for Amazon’s

two-day or overnight delivery. Some products with very small lithium ion

batteries can be exempt, but make sure to do your research.

You will be required to fill out an MSDS lithium battery exception sheet and

have it approved by Amazon.

While these products are not impossible to sell, make sure to do your research.

ASM Community.

Multiple Variations

Variations are different versions of the same product, and only differ in color,

size and quantity. The main reason for caution is establishing which variation

is the best version, due to Amazon showing the same BSR for all variations.

Currently Amazon is experimenting with individual BSR. If a product that has

variations shows individual BSR’s then it is possible to pick this product.

However, make sure to use the best-selling version as the primary or

competing product.

When you make your product order, do not order a variety of colors, sizes, etc.

Products with variations can be a good choice to sell, as long as you have

done the proper research.

Plugs into Electrical Sockets

Reasons to be cautious about these types of products:

Liability issues due to a faulty product causing harm

2. Quality

3. Safety requirements in any country you’re selling in

If you want to move forward with this type of product, make sure to follow the

guidelines below:

●

Make sure the product is high quality - samples and inspections

●

Do research into the safety requirements

●

Consider liability insurance

If you follow these guidelines and do you research, products with plugs can be

profitable.

Textiles

We generally advise caution with textiles due to the higher import duties and

specific labeling guidelines. Textiles include a wide range of products (too

large to cover in one lesson). If you are interested in pursuing textiles and

would like additional information, check out the

FAQ post in the Community.

Weapons Related

Amazon has recently starting restricting weapon related products. This mainly

applies to advertising on their platform. They may restrict any listings that

they consider to be weapons.

Patented

Any products that have a patent or patent pending must be avoided.

will be covering additional information on patents in a later module.
