Finally!! Every video I have watched starts with product already in place. I finally learned from the very beginning. I feel like I can actually move forward now. Really appreciate your time and video.
SO HELPFUL! I am so relieved I found this gem of a video. No other video has explained everything regarding this process as clear and to the point than this. So happy! Thank you!
i have to say , i spent money on a course to learn those things but you teach us much more better and step by step . every time i have a question i come to your channel . thanks and keep up the good work :)
Mahalo for this video. Recently just lost my mom & pop shop due to all the shut downs and loss of tourism here in Hawai’i. Trying to find new ways to survive and I can NOT express how much this video helps and lessens the anxiety of failure. Mahalo Mahalo MAHALO to you.
Mahalo! I'm sorry to hear about your situation. Thank you for your feedback, I'm glad to hear that you found value in the content and that you found it helpful. Sometimes facing adversity is what one needs to become more successful. Keep your chin up and keep hustling! If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
Thank you, Kao. This is the best video on how to do the shipping plan that I found on TH-cam. Having short clips of what an user should actually do was very helpful.🔝
Your channel is far and away the best and most detailed that i have found so far in how to tackle all of these little details. Have kept me from majorly messing up. I appreciate it!
Thank you so much! It is a really stressful process when you you do it at first time but with your videos I did it really fast. You explain everything very clearly
You're welcome! I'm glad you found value in the content and thank you for your feedback, I appreciate it! Here's an updated video on this: th-cam.com/video/iQMKhWhSYPs/w-d-xo.html
I’m about to ship my first domestic units for FBA and will have them going straight from my supplier on the next order. I already know this video saved me a lot of trouble already.
Your videos really super helpful and very detailed. I will say more ... your videos even better than some paid course with *gurus*. Hope see some fresh video about how ranking product after launch.
Great video, I created my first product, and wish I'd watched this video first. Had some quality issues and only found it after it arrived at my house, but I know what to do for the next time after watching your video. Subscribed!
I'm glad you found value in the content! And thank you for your feedback and support, I appreciate it. You might find this video helpful too: th-cam.com/video/fLdPcTVkQz8/w-d-xo.html
@@CrescentKao Thanks Kao. It seems Amazon makes everything so complicated with basically zero support, so having people like you walk us through these challenges is a really big help! I'm setting up my branded non upc product right now and I've had to send about 5 support requests, and each response I receive doesn't fix the problem, but makes me dig even deeper into the mire. End hopefully soon in sight... lol. I'll definitely watch your suggested video.
I dont know what I would have done without your videos! thank you!! I do have more questions to what step I need to take next. I have a supplier and product but what do I do next? 1 buy barcode 2 make a listing 3 create a shipping plan 4 give the supplier barcode 5 have supplier ship the products and start selling? is that the right process? where and when do I put barcode on sellers central?
Hello Crescent, I sincerely appreciate your videos. Surely one of the best and easier to digest. The minimum I can do is to like every video I watch! You have answered almost all the questions that one can think of in just one video. I do want to know if I should watch out for any specific thing when hiring Chinese freight forwarders I found on Alibaba. I am applying the similar criteria such as trade insurance, 5 starts, # of transactions and value of transactions, etc. They seem to be more cost effective.
Hello! Thank you for your feedback and support, I appreciate it! When dealing with any business or service, always contact them, ask them questions, get referrals if you can and trust your gut. In end always pay using a method where you have payment protection of some sort.
Great video! I am looking to just get the Amazon shipping label to send to my supplier so they can put it on the master cartons. Can I just get these shipping labels without creating the UPS label for SPD? Since I have no idea when I will ship the boxes to Amazon's warehouse, I don't want to create the UPS labels yet.
I'm glad you found value in the content! If you're shipping from overseas, you can't choose the Amazon Partnered Carrier program where you'd be printing the carrier (UPS, fedex) shipping labels. If you're not choosing the Partnered Carrier program, it doesn't matter which carrier you choose, its for you own reference only. You don't get the shipping carrier labels from the shipping plan, you get them from the shipping carrier like UPS or Fedex. This goes over it: th-cam.com/video/ynVQ3pOL3lk/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for this! super helpful and i must say your videos are the most helpful when it comes to amazon sales! In regards to creating the shipping plan, I have chosen case packed for my first product, in the section where i need to enter box size and weight, i have entered the shipping box size/weight not the individual units sizes/weights. Amazon put my shipment under Oversize, even though my individual units aren't (unit packaging box 4"*4.7"*9") and each unit weighs 0.7kgs - Should i have put the unit dimension/weights instead of the shipping box info in that section instead?
I like all of your videos. It's all are details and so much helpful for the new in this Amazon business. I have a question that- if I have variation product like size or color and my supplier do the mix-up the products packaging how can put the information.
Thank you for your feedback, I appreciate it! I'm glad you find value in the content. I'm not sure I understand your question, can you rephrase it? The correct barcodes and labels need to go on the corresponding variations.
Thanks for explaining topic very clearly. Will appreciate if you can share your experience how I can select good inspector to dispatch then to supplier's warehouse. Thanks
You're amazing, Crescent! I'm super new to this and have found your tips helpful. I have a question. Do I need 2 shipping plans and 2 different FNSKU's if I'm planning to sell 500 units of 1 product but in 2 different colors (250 brown and 250 black)? But also let me back up, in order to create 2 shipping plans, I need 2 product listings (right?) Do those product listings have to be identical? Or should I distinguish it by adding the color? I've been trying to find a solution for hours. I hope you've got the winning answer. Thanks for what you provide to the community!
Hello! Thanks for your feedback, I appreciate it, I'm glad you're finding value in the content! No, you can send all your different SKU's in one shipping plan. You can create separate ones if you want.
Hello Crescent, Im debating between Vtrust, Qima, Sofeast or HKQCC. Have you used any of these or which one of these can you recommend? Great info Thank you
Thank you for this video. Instead of ordering samples and inspecting them myself, do I hire an inspection team to do it at my supplier's wharehouse|? How does this work?
Very informative and Helpful, Sir Crescent. And I have a question that If I have 2 color variations and 500 units for each color so, Should I create one by one shipping plan for them?
Very helpful video! I want to ask a question that if the supplier is not shipping our products to the Amazon warehouse, then how can we hire a freight forwarder?
This video is really helpful. The only thing I am worried about is packaging type. So I got 1 product which has diffrent size and colour, do I have to choose individual or case pack. Hope I will get reply sir.
The entire shipping industry and Amazon's shipment processing is massively delayed nowadays. You can expect Amazon to process your inbound shipment in a few days to a few weeks. Here's an updated video on this: th-cam.com/video/iQMKhWhSYPs/w-d-xo.html
Hello Sir…Great information. I have a question for you…I have purchased GS1 barcodes for my private labeled products. Can I use my GS1 barcodes instead of Amazon FNSKU numbers for my products?
Hello! I'm glad you found value in the content! Yes, you have to use a UPC barcode in order to create a listing, however I don't recommend using the UPC on your products, use the FNSKU. This goes over it: th-cam.com/video/o0ZoSR4vRkU/w-d-xo.html
I’m glad you found it helpful! This goes over it: th-cam.com/video/NqTsTFKP7tA/w-d-xo.html I suggest watching this also: th-cam.com/video/fLdPcTVkQz8/w-d-xo.html
Awesome video! 👍👍👍👍Crescent,quick question,regarding shipping service,if my products total are over 150lb,should I choose LTL(less than truckload) instead of SPD? I know u mentioned SPD,which should I choose?thank you 🙏🙏🙏
Glad you found value in it! If your shipment doesn’t meet the SPD requirements then you’ll have to ship it by LTL. The carriers won’t accept it if it’s too big or too heavy or they’ll charge you insane overage fees.
Great explanation. Quick question. I have 83 boxes going to shipped. 498 units. Dimensions is 40*30*45 and 7.5 kg weight. But whenever I put 83 as a total boxes. Amazon keep showing me the oversized error ?
Yes. It’s improperly packaged contents. It’ll be a strike on your account and you’ll eventually get charged penalty fees and/or lose your selling privileges. This goes over it: th-cam.com/video/ynVQ3pOL3lk/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for the tips crescent. Please, just 2 questions: 1. Is there a penalty or punishment from Amazon when you create a listing and do not ship any inventory for a long while (say 2 - 3 weeks). Reason for the question is that, the FNSKU label has to be obtained in advance so that the package designer can include the bar code on the product (or the supplier - if i don't want to embed on the package) 2. Is it preferable for the FNSKU bar code to be embedded on the product package when it is being designed or attached as a sticker by the supplier?
You’re welcome! 1) No. It doesn’t matter if you use the shipping plan or not. You can leave it or delete it, it doesn’t matter. You don’t need to create a shipping plan to get the FNSKU. You can click the Edit drop down menu on the Manage Inventory page and print them there. 2) you can print or sticker the barcode on the unit. It’s up to you. Printed may be cheaper if you’re already doing a custom package design. This goes over it: th-cam.com/video/lcGHgplGkbY/w-d-xo.html
@@CrescentKao Ohh thanks. I actually meant... would Amazon penalize me if I created a new listing now for a new product that would not be available for sales until after 3 weeks (i.e production of the products would be after 3 weeks). Thanks.
Thank you sir for the amazing tutorial! I love It. I have a question, can I keep my old barcode (Im doing retail arbitrage so I buy from places like Walmart which there is barcodes on them already) and then just apply the new one? Or should I hide the old barcode and then apply the new one for the product?
Hello We create a shipping plan as soon as the manufacturer finishes production, correct? Otherwise we don't know how many boxes or weights they end up with at the end of production... Also aren't the labels generated only after the shipping plan is done, so the supplier has to take everything out of the boxes after weighing to put the labels on?
Hello. You create the shipping plan after or if the supplier has the shipment details ahead of time, you can create it early. The shipping labels go on the shipping cartons, not the product: th-cam.com/video/o0ZoSR4vRkU/w-d-xo.html
@@CrescentKao thanks!!! yes I know shipping labels go on the box I meant the labels generated by amazon for each individual unit. The supplier has to remove each unit after weighing the shipping box to put on the barcode labels Amazon generates on each unit? We have to enter weight, dimensions of the shipment first before Amazon will generate the individual unit labels, right? That makes me think that the supplier has to backtrack and take everything out of the box to label everything, correct me if I'm wrong? (Please)
Great video! How I wish I watched this before doing my shipping plan. I made a mistake of choosing amazon carrier partner although my FF will deliver my products from overseas to designated address. Unfortunately, I realized this over a month after approving and after embarking my products on the ship. My concern now is, will there be any problem using the same carton labels? I reckon it has carrier info too. Another strange thing is, shipping status showed "delivered" and this was even before the products were shipped.
@@CrescentKao Thanks. Unfortunately, my products are already shipped waiting to arrive in US. The Support guy wasn't very reassuring but told me, the label, though was for partner carrier, will help them identify the products, regardless. What's your take on this?
great content Crescent..question....if my local supplier takes care of the shipping for me through their own provider, how is this specified in the shipping plan?
I'm glad you found it helpful. Amazon doesn't care who the carrier is. The shipping plan is simply to let amazon know what and who the inbound shipments belong to when they arrive at the warehouse. Here's and updated video on this: th-cam.com/video/S_oNiDvgxQs/w-d-xo.html
Hi crescent! Nice and informative videos. I just want to ask, does the Ship From address in the shipping plan needs to be your supplier's address in China if you are shipping directly from them?
I'm glad you found value in the content! It doesn't matter what you put in the From field. You can put your suppliers, your own or your freight forwarders. I normally just put my suppliers address.
Hey thanks for the info it was really helpful ! what about if I want to send 1 batch of let's say 100 units by air and the rest by sea so I can start selling sooner and still save some money. How do I proceed for the shipping plan?
Once you start a shipping plan at the point of entering details for each box. We have a large number of boxes and I was wondering if we can save and continue later if we need to take a break?
Fab video - very clear and very helpful - thank you! Can I ask what insurance you would recommend please? We're in the UK and going to be trading in the US so I suppose we should get an American insurance company. Also, with regards to the product inspection...if the supplier does a product inspection, would they facetime us to show us the product or do we just trust them that it has actually been done? I suppose it worries me because they would, potentially, be less willing to actually find any flaws with the product as any replacements would be their responsibility and therefore, at their cost. Would be great to know your thoughts :) Many thanks, again, Sophia
Hi, Thanks for this video. It helped me a lot. Now, I do need help. I followed all your steps and it is was all fine until my supplier changed the number/size and weight of the boxes that they will send to the Amazon warehouse. I can not figure out, how and where to update this. How can I do this?
Hello Crescent, great video! My shipment is a box of 24 glass jars of food. I worked with the manufacturer to apply the FNSKU to the bottle prior to shipment to the US, however I did select the bubble wrap FBA prep service. Do I still need to apply (or pay for) another FNSKU on top of the bubble wrap?
Hi There , I'm a new salesperson PL. Recently subscribed to your channel and you are doing great. Naturally, I have a lot of questions😃😃😃. I created a listing with 4 colors and 2 shapes (square and oval), so there are 8 variations of 1 product. Each product is 125 pieces, the total number of products is 1000 pieces, and 20 pieces are placed on large boxes. So I have 5 pieces of the product left from each option, I want the remaining 5 pieces of options to be combined into 1 box, and I will have 2 such mixed boxes. The question is how should I build a shipping plan?
Hello! I'm glad you're finding value in the content! I'm not quite sure I understand what you're trying to do however, each unit needs to be prepackaged with all of the parts in one package so that it is ready to sell. Amazon will not assemble your pieces together for you. Then you can just choose Individually Packed to ship your variations in the same shipping carton as described in the video. Here's an updated video on this: th-cam.com/video/iQMKhWhSYPs/w-d-xo.html
Hi Crescent, another question. By the way my first shipment just arrived amazon warehouse , wanted to ask what to do in order to start selling. And also, must i do PPC?
Hello, thank you for you very detailed and informative explanation. Can you please advise where and how I can get an inspector to view the products at my supplier's factory?
Thank you very much Crescent, the content is very good. I block to register online my brand in the USA (USPTO) my brand I want it generic in order to create my Amazon store with multi category. My problem is that I don't know in which category (goods services) save it? Thanks for your help. (I did not find a tutorial on the subject on the web, maybe an idea for you because I must not be the only one in this case
You’re welcome! I suggest using the IP Accelerator program to register your brand, otherwise you have to wait 6-9 months to get access to Brand Registry. This goes over it: th-cam.com/video/2VBGR2JpZ1A/w-d-xo.html
Hi Crescent. Ron here. Great Video once again ! Thank You. I have hired an outsourcing agent for my products. Can the FNSKU labels be printed before I create a shipping plan or do I need to create the shipping plan first ?
Quick question can i create one shipment for products from two suppliers? Whom should i type in "Ship from" ? The one with more packets, or create for each another shipment plan?
It doesn't matter what the from address is, you can put whatever you want. It doesn't matter if they're from one or more suppliers as long as the labels are affixed to the correct cartons. You can create a single shipping or multiple if you want.
Great video! I’m shipping from China. Should I be using small parcel delivery for this shipment? It is being shipped by Amazon sea line. My supplier in China says it will not be on a pallet. Also, is there any way to delete a shipping plan that has already been confirmed and asking for tracking numbers? When printing out the FBA packaging labels I confirmed the shipment even though shipment isn’t scheduled to ship for another month! Thanks
I'm glad you found the video helpful! If your shipment meets the SPD guidelines, then yes, choose SPD. If its palletized, then you can't choose SPD. It doesn't matter if your shipment isn't ready to ship yet, you can still use the same shipping plan and labels. You can delete it if you want.
Hi Crescent, Thanks for such an informative video. I have a question though. I am about to send my first shipment to Amazon FBA through the freight forwarder from China with DDP air shipping. What is the "Ship from" address that I should be using while creating my shipment? Amazon advises "it is a good idea to set the 'Ship From' address to be the import address" what does it mean and who provides this address, from where I can get this address?
This is such a great video thank you for sharing. What can I do if I did a mistake on the shipping plan? By mistake put the carton box dimensions on the product dimensions ? Should I delete the shipping plan and redo? Please advise.
Even if I delete the shipment plan and redo it? I am sorry to trouble u with these questions. I am trying to know what packaging label for the cartons do I provide my supplier since I am getting the 500 units shipped to me in USA and then sending the 200 units to Amazon due to the limit that they have. Can u guide me please
Hi, Thanks for the good video. it really helped. one question. normally do split up the shipment? or all to one warehouse? how can I know which one is reasonable? Thank you ;)
Hello Crescent, as always wonderful video. thanks for sharing your knowledge with others. One question. To import foods into USA from china do you need EIN number? In Freigtos website while booking for shipment there is section where we have to declare if we are foreigh importer and expect to have EIN number.
Hello, I'm glad you're finding value in the content. It doesn't matter what you're importing into the US, you need a federal tax ID, whether that's your SSN or EIN.
hi... I have two items in one box....it's a bundled item with one FNSKU. There will be 500 units of that FNSKU in silver and another 500 units of another FNSKU in another color. Shouldn't I select Case packed for this?
No. All the cases must be exactly the same if you choose Case Packed. Always choose Individually packed even if you are doing case packed, it makes no difference like I said in the video.
thank you but I had a questions, so before I order my products need to listing and make shipping plan so how we know that all information about my products like box size number of case the unit of number image from my products how to communicate with supplier if its before order my products should be listing and ship plan
You're welcome. Your supplier will have the shipment details. You don't need to create a shipping plan until you're ready to send in your inventory. Creating a shipping plan is separate from creating a listing. I suggest watching this video, it goes over everything step by step: th-cam.com/video/fLdPcTVkQz8/w-d-xo.html
Hi Crescent, thank you for the informative video. In regards to having the merchandise inspected in China at the factory, how do you find people to inspect the goods? What does that process look like? Is there a inspection company that sends people out and you pay per inspection? I was actually planning to ship ddp from my vendor to my home. Then inspect and apply barcode stickers myself. Any information would be greatly appreciated! Love your videos keep up the great work. -Ira
Hello. You're welcome! I'm glad you found it helpful. You need to hire an inspection company to perform the inspection. This goes over it: th-cam.com/video/NqTsTFKP7tA/w-d-xo.html
Hi Crescent, Thanks for this video. I'm making my first shipment to Amazon. I'm having products made in China. I'm trying to setup the shipping plan. Firstly it looks different now from when you did this video. Did they make some changes? My question is about large orders. I'm selling a product that's a little oversized, so shipping 150 of them will take over 10 boxes, but the maximum number of boxes I can put in the shipping plan is 10. Should I just create multiple shipping plans which will be shipped to different warehouses? If so, how will that affect my shipping cost? Is there an advantage to having the product in different warehouses for a private label product? Thanks.
You're welcome. You can create multiple shipping plans. The shipping cost isn't affected by how many shipping plan you make. The shipping cost is fixed by your freight forwarder or whomever is arranging your shipment.
Thanks for the video, extremely helpful!, question for you. My supplier in china (from alibaba) is shipping DAP not DDP, how can I find out how much more will I need to pay here at customs and I am a bit confused does DAP not deliver straight to amazon warehouse if that's the address I give my supplier?
You're welcome! DAP delivers straight to the destination but you have to take care of the duties. I'm assuming customs will bill your broker/supplier and then you have to pay the balance once they receive the invoice. Unlike with DDP, the supplier/broker already knows what the duty is and you're paying them upfront for the inventory and duty. Otherwise, I highly suggest hiring a freight forwarder to handle it.
Hey man, thanks for this vid. Just one simple question. I want to send some shoes to fba warehouse (OA) and I use a 3p prep center, so I wonder if shoes fit in the category of no prep needed or if that's not the case I'd really appreciate if you could tell me which is the correct one. Thank you.
Hello! You're welcome! If you don't need Amazon to do anything to prepare your item to sell such as labeling or packaging, then you don't need prep: th-cam.com/video/ynVQ3pOL3lk/w-d-xo.html

I dont know what I would have done without your videos! thank you!! I do have more questions to what step I need to take next. I have a supplier and product but what do I do next?
1 buy barcode
2 make a listing
3 create a shipping plan
4 give the supplier barcode
5 have supplier ship the products and start selling?
is that the right process? where and when do I put barcode on sellers central?

Hello Crescent, I sincerely appreciate your videos. Surely one of the best and easier to digest. The minimum I can do is to like every video I watch!
You have answered almost all the questions that one can think of in just one video.
I do want to know if I should watch out for any specific thing when hiring Chinese freight forwarders I found on Alibaba. I am applying the similar criteria such as trade insurance, 5 starts, # of transactions and value of transactions, etc. They seem to be more cost effective.
Hello! Thank you for your feedback and support, I appreciate it! When dealing with any business or service, always contact them, ask them questions, get referrals if you can and trust your gut. In end always pay using a method where you have payment protection of some sort.
Thank you Crescent.
You’re welcome!
Great video! I am looking to just get the Amazon shipping label to send to my supplier so they can put it on the master cartons. Can I just get these shipping labels without creating the UPS label for SPD? Since I have no idea when I will ship the boxes to Amazon's warehouse, I don't want to create the UPS labels yet.
I'm glad you found value in the content! If you're shipping from overseas, you can't choose the Amazon Partnered Carrier program where you'd be printing the carrier (UPS, fedex) shipping labels. If you're not choosing the Partnered Carrier program, it doesn't matter which carrier you choose, its for you own reference only. You don't get the shipping carrier labels from the shipping plan, you get them from the shipping carrier like UPS or Fedex. This goes over it: th-cam.com/video/ynVQ3pOL3lk/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for this! super helpful and i must say your videos are the most helpful when it comes to amazon sales! In regards to creating the shipping plan, I have chosen case packed for my first product, in the section where i need to enter box size and weight, i have entered the shipping box size/weight not the individual units sizes/weights. Amazon put my shipment under Oversize, even though my individual units aren't (unit packaging box 4"*4.7"*9") and each unit weighs 0.7kgs - Should i have put the unit dimension/weights instead of the shipping box info in that section instead?

You're amazing, Crescent! I'm super new to this and have found your tips helpful. I have a question. Do I need 2 shipping plans and 2 different FNSKU's if I'm planning to sell 500 units of 1 product but in 2 different colors (250 brown and 250 black)?
But also let me back up, in order to create 2 shipping plans, I need 2 product listings (right?) Do those product listings have to be identical? Or should I distinguish it by adding the color?
I've been trying to find a solution for hours. I hope you've got the winning answer. Thanks for what you provide to the community!

Awesome video! 👍👍👍👍Crescent,quick question,regarding shipping service,if my products total are over 150lb,should I choose LTL(less than truckload) instead of SPD? I know u mentioned SPD,which should I choose?thank you 🙏🙏🙏
Glad you found value in it! If your shipment doesn’t meet the SPD requirements then you’ll have to ship it by LTL. The carriers won’t accept it if it’s too big or too heavy or they’ll charge you insane overage fees.
Great explanation. Quick question. I have 83 boxes going to shipped. 498 units. Dimensions is 40*30*45 and 7.5 kg weight. But whenever I put 83 as a total boxes. Amazon keep showing me the oversized error ?
I'm glad you found value in the content! The longest side must be 25" or less: sellercentral.amazon.com/gp/help/external/G200141510?language=en_US
if i put in a hundred units but only send 10 for example just to start off, would this be a problem?
Yes. It’s improperly packaged contents. It’ll be a strike on your account and you’ll eventually get charged penalty fees and/or lose your selling privileges. This goes over it: th-cam.com/video/ynVQ3pOL3lk/w-d-xo.html
@@CrescentKao how about if I delete the listings to just get the address and then make new one, with the correct quantity
@@englishwithme9922 If you made a mistake on the shipping plan, just delete it and create a new one.
@@CrescentKao my supplier said he put the barcode do I have to then avoid Amazon code, I think you mentioned it's better?
I mean it's already with the product so when I listed it, do I put the upc or the asin
Thanks for the tips crescent.
Please, just 2 questions:
1. Is there a penalty or punishment from Amazon when you create a listing and do not ship any inventory for a long while (say 2 - 3 weeks).
Reason for the question is that, the FNSKU label has to be obtained in advance so that the package designer can include the bar code on the product (or the supplier - if i don't want to embed on the package)
2. Is it preferable for the FNSKU bar code to be embedded on the product package when it is being designed or attached as a sticker by the supplier?
You’re welcome! 1) No. It doesn’t matter if you use the shipping plan or not. You can leave it or delete it, it doesn’t matter. You don’t need to create a shipping plan to get the FNSKU. You can click the Edit drop down menu on the Manage Inventory page and print them there.
2) you can print or sticker the barcode on the unit. It’s up to you. Printed may be cheaper if you’re already doing a custom package design. This goes over it: th-cam.com/video/lcGHgplGkbY/w-d-xo.html
@@CrescentKao Ohh thanks. I actually meant... would Amazon penalize me if I created a new listing now for a new product that would not be available for sales until after 3 weeks (i.e production of the products would be after 3 weeks).
Thanks.
@@raphaelnkemdilim8872 No, there’s no problem.
Thank you sir for the amazing tutorial! I love It.
I have a question, can I keep my old barcode (Im doing retail arbitrage so I buy from places like Walmart which there is barcodes on them already) and then just apply the new one? Or should I hide the old barcode and then apply the new one for the product?
You’re welcome! Each unit can only have one barcode visible. Cover the existing UPC with the FNSKU barcode: th-cam.com/video/tdJqj7tEjdM/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for the great video!! DDP shipping from the supplier normally includes insurance, too? Thank you
You're welcome. No, you'll have to discuss that with your shipping carrier or whomever is arranging the shipment.
Hello
We create a shipping plan as soon as the manufacturer finishes production, correct?
Otherwise we don't know how many boxes or weights they end up with at the end of production...
Also aren't the labels generated only after the shipping plan is done, so the supplier has to take everything out of the boxes after weighing to put the labels on?
Hello. You create the shipping plan after or if the supplier has the shipment details ahead of time, you can create it early. The shipping labels go on the shipping cartons, not the product: th-cam.com/video/o0ZoSR4vRkU/w-d-xo.html
@@CrescentKao thanks!!! yes I know shipping labels go on the box I meant the labels generated by amazon for each individual unit. The supplier has to remove each unit after weighing the shipping box to put on the barcode labels Amazon generates on each unit? We have to enter weight, dimensions of the shipment first before Amazon will generate the individual unit labels, right? That makes me think that the supplier has to backtrack and take everything out of the box to label everything, correct me if I'm wrong? (Please)
Great video! How I wish I watched this before doing my shipping plan. I made a mistake of choosing amazon carrier partner although my FF will deliver my products from overseas to designated address. Unfortunately, I realized this over a month after approving and after embarking my products on the ship. My concern now is, will there be any problem using the same carton labels? I reckon it has carrier info too. Another strange thing is, shipping status showed "delivered" and this was even before the products were shipped.
I'm glad you found it helpful! The Partnered Carrier option is for domestic shipments only. You'll have to create a new shipping plan.
@@CrescentKao Thanks. Unfortunately, my products are already shipped waiting to arrive in US. The Support guy wasn't very reassuring but told me, the label, though was for partner carrier, will help them identify the products, regardless. What's your take on this?
great content Crescent..question....if my local supplier takes care of the shipping for me through their own provider, how is this specified in the shipping plan?
I'm glad you found it helpful. Amazon doesn't care who the carrier is. The shipping plan is simply to let amazon know what and who the inbound shipments belong to when they arrive at the warehouse. Here's and updated video on this: th-cam.com/video/S_oNiDvgxQs/w-d-xo.html
This goes over the labeling too: th-cam.com/video/3DtbcEtgjjw/w-d-xo.html
Does it really matter the box dimensions? Thank you Crescent.
Yes, you have to 100% accurate: th-cam.com/video/ynVQ3pOL3lk/w-d-xo.html
Hi crescent! Nice and informative videos. I just want to ask, does the Ship From address in the shipping plan needs to be your supplier's address in China if you are shipping directly from them?
I'm glad you found value in the content! It doesn't matter what you put in the From field. You can put your suppliers, your own or your freight forwarders. I normally just put my suppliers address.
Hey thanks for the info it was really helpful ! what about if I want to send 1 batch of let's say 100 units by air and the rest by sea so I can start selling sooner and still save some money. How do I proceed for the shipping plan?
You're welcome! You'll have to create two shipping plans, one for the air shipment and one for the sea shipment.
Once you start a shipping plan at the point of entering details for each box. We have a large number of boxes and I was wondering if we can save and continue later if we need to take a break?
It depends at which point you stopped. You can only enter a max of 10 boxes anyways. This goes over it: th-cam.com/video/qFzU6WOBJsw/w-d-xo.html
Fab video - very clear and very helpful - thank you! Can I ask what insurance you would recommend please? We're in the UK and going to be trading in the US so I suppose we should get an American insurance company. Also, with regards to the product inspection...if the supplier does a product inspection, would they facetime us to show us the product or do we just trust them that it has actually been done? I suppose it worries me because they would, potentially, be less willing to actually find any flaws with the product as any replacements would be their responsibility and therefore, at their cost. Would be great to know your thoughts :) Many thanks, again, Sophia
Your freight forwarder can offer insurance for the shipment. This goes over inspections: th-cam.com/video/NqTsTFKP7tA/w-d-xo.html

You're welcome, I'm glad you found it helpful. You can't change/edit completed shipping plans. Just create a new one.
Hello Crescent, great video! My shipment is a box of 24 glass jars of food. I worked with the manufacturer to apply the FNSKU to the bottle prior to shipment to the US, however I did select the bubble wrap FBA prep service. Do I still need to apply (or pay for) another FNSKU on top of the bubble wrap?
I'm glad you found value in the video! No, you should be fine. But I would speak to seller support to double check.
Hi There , I'm a new salesperson PL. Recently subscribed to your channel and you are doing great. Naturally, I have a lot of questions😃😃😃. I created a listing with 4 colors and 2 shapes (square and oval), so there are 8 variations of 1 product. Each product is 125 pieces, the total number of products is 1000 pieces, and 20 pieces are placed on large boxes. So I have 5 pieces of the product left from each option, I want the remaining 5 pieces of options to be combined into 1 box, and I will have 2 such mixed boxes. The question is how should I build a shipping plan?
Hello! I'm glad you're finding value in the content! I'm not quite sure I understand what you're trying to do however, each unit needs to be prepackaged with all of the parts in one package so that it is ready to sell. Amazon will not assemble your pieces together for you. Then you can just choose Individually Packed to ship your variations in the same shipping carton as described in the video. Here's an updated video on this: th-cam.com/video/iQMKhWhSYPs/w-d-xo.html
Hi Crescent, another question. By the way my first shipment just arrived amazon warehouse , wanted to ask what to do in order to start selling. And also, must i do PPC?
Hello. Once Amazon processes your shipment, you’ll see active inventory on your listing and your listing will go live. Yes, always run PPC.

Quick question can i create one shipment for products from two suppliers? Whom should i type in "Ship from" ? The one with more packets, or create for each another shipment plan?
It doesn't matter what the from address is, you can put whatever you want. It doesn't matter if they're from one or more suppliers as long as the labels are affixed to the correct cartons. You can create a single shipping or multiple if you want.
Great video! I’m shipping from China. Should I be using small parcel delivery for this shipment? It is being shipped by Amazon sea line. My supplier in China says it will not be on a pallet.
Also, is there any way to delete a shipping plan that has already been confirmed and asking for tracking numbers? When printing out the FBA packaging labels I confirmed the shipment even though shipment isn’t scheduled to ship for another month!
Thanks
I'm glad you found the video helpful! If your shipment meets the SPD guidelines, then yes, choose SPD. If its palletized, then you can't choose SPD. It doesn't matter if your shipment isn't ready to ship yet, you can still use the same shipping plan and labels. You can delete it if you want.
Hi Crescent, Thanks for such an informative video. I have a question though. I am about to send my first shipment to Amazon FBA through the freight forwarder from China with DDP air shipping.

No. All the cases must be exactly the same if you choose Case Packed. Always choose Individually packed even if you are doing case packed, it makes no difference like I said in the video.
thank you but I had a questions, so before I order my products need to listing and make shipping plan so how we know that all information about my products like box size number of case the unit of number image from my products how to communicate with supplier if its before order my products should be listing and ship plan

Hi Crescent, Thanks for this video. I'm making my first shipment to Amazon. I'm having products made in China. I'm trying to setup the shipping plan. Firstly it looks different now from when you did this video. Did they make some changes? My question is about large orders. I'm selling a product that's a little oversized, so shipping 150 of them will take over 10 boxes, but the maximum number of boxes I can put in the shipping plan is 10. Should I just create multiple shipping plans which will be shipped to different warehouses? If so, how will that affect my shipping cost? Is there an advantage to having the product in different warehouses for a private label product? Thanks.
You're welcome. You can create multiple shipping plans. The shipping cost isn't affected by how many shipping plan you make. The shipping cost is fixed by your freight forwarder or whomever is arranging your shipment.
Thanks for the video, extremely helpful!, question for you. My supplier in china (from alibaba) is shipping DAP not DDP, how can I find out how much more will I need to pay here at customs and I am a bit confused does DAP not deliver straight to amazon warehouse if that's the address I give my supplier?
You're welcome! DAP delivers straight to the destination but you have to take care of the duties. I'm assuming customs will bill your broker/supplier and then you have to pay the balance once they receive the invoice. Unlike with DDP, the supplier/broker already knows what the duty is and you're paying them upfront for the inventory and duty. Otherwise, I highly suggest hiring a freight forwarder to handle it.
