Marketplace Compliance

Precision FBA Prep Services

We simplify the complex world of Fulfillment by Amazon. Focus on being a top Amazon FBA seller while we handle the strict compliance, labeling, and shipping requirements.

The FBA Compliance Standard

Amazon has zero tolerance for errors. To sell in Amazon FBA successfully, your inventory must meet rigorous receiving standards. One missing label or loose polybag can result in rejected shipments, lost stock, or even account suspension.

Our "Quality Firewall" inspects every unit before it enters the Amazon network, ensuring 100% compliance with:

  • FNSKU Labeling

    We cover manufacturer barcodes with Amazon-specific FNSKU labels to ensure your inventory is tracked correctly.

  • Polybagging & Safety Warnings

    We apply suffocation warning labels and ensure bags are sealed to Amazon's specific thickness requirements.

  • Dunnage & Boxing

    We use Amazon-approved dunnage (no packing peanuts!) and build shipping plans with precise box content information.

Why Shipments Get Rejected

The "Hybrid" Strategy: FBA vs. FBM

FBA (Prime)

You ship bulk stock to Amazon's warehouse. They handle the final delivery.

  • Prime Badge Visibility
  • Hands-off fulfillment
  • High storage fees

Use for: High velocity, small items.

FBM (Merchant)

You keep stock at 3PLEX. We ship directly to the customer when an order comes in.

  • Lower storage costs
  • Better for heavy/bulky items
  • Backup for stockouts

Use for: Slow movers, oversized goods, Q4 backup.

The 3PLEX Solution: We enable you to do BOTH. Keep bulk stock with us (cheaper) and drip-feed Amazon (Prime) while keeping an FBM listing active as a safety net.

Surviving the Q4 Surge

In Q4 (Black Friday & Christmas), Amazon's warehouses get clogged. Receiving times can jump from 3 days to 3 weeks. They often slash storage limits for sellers.

We act as your Q4 overflow reservoir.

1

Store your holiday inventory with us in October.

2

Send smaller, frequent shipments to FBA to stay under limits.

3

If FBA runs out, switch to FBM instantly—we fulfill orders same-day.

FBA Prep FAQ

Can you bundle multiple items?

Yes. We specialize in kitting. If you sell a "Shampoo + Conditioner" bundle, we pick both, place them in a polybag, seal it, and apply a single "Do Not Separate" label and the kit FNSKU.

How fast can you prep stock?

Our standard turnaround is 24-48 hours from arrival to "Ready to Ship". For urgent replenishments, we offer a priority service.

Do you have access to Seller Central?

We recommend giving us "User Permission" (limited access) to your Seller Central account. This allows us to print shipping labels and create shipments directly, saving you hours of email back-and-forth.

Planning your stock levels?

Avoid stockouts and overstock fees with intelligent data.
