Not sure yet on what sort of pricing Amazon has negotiated with the companies. Also no guarantee we can get them tested ourselves yet. May just be the brand owners/manufacturers. Have to wait and see
Just finished the Amazon webinar and I'm not sure that I'm any wiser... Seems like there's a gray area if toys are from large manufacturers that consistently and rigorously test. However, I have two alerts for items that need testing now and Amazon is the main seller on both listings and both are fairly big companies (Schleich and Goo jit Zu). I'm really interested to hear your take because I'm at a loss
I had to miss the webinar unfortunately so I'm still putting the pieces together. But what I'm gathering is we still need to wait and see how everything rolls out and which ASINS specifically they're requesting.
The good news is that it's confirmed ASIN-level, so as long as someone submits the docs, the entire listing is good.
I think we just need to twiddle our thumbs for a bit while we wait and see how widespread the requests actually are.
Yes that was at least a bit of good news. Can I ask how many listings you have flagged already. We have about 800 Asins - granted not all toys, but only 1 request so far specially related to this roll out. I'm expecting there will be more though.
I have 2 flagged on Amazon. Both are listings that Amazon has never sold on and 'alternate' listings, where a more 'official' one exists.
I have 78 flagged on Walmart, about 10% of my catalog. Waiting to hear back on my first submission for Walmart ones, has been five days and no response yet.
Does anyone know what it will cost to test these? Google says anywhere from hundreds to tens of thousands depending on the thing

I anticipate these both climbing by end of month.
Big thing here if it’s by asin or every seller needs to submit documents. Sucks since I have thousands of arbitrage units in storage
Yup I feel it. I feel confident it will be by ASIN but time will tell
