      I bought 2 pairs of boots from Amazon.com 1. Order placed March 28, 2023 ORDER # ***-1529216-5569057 - $****** (***** ******** 2. Order placed March 6, 2023 ORDER # ***-4931825-5076217- $128.65 (vendor -Dynamic Sneakers- fulfilled by Amazon)Neither pair worked. So I returned both. *** employee mixed up the labels and ***** boots were returned to Amazon, Dynamic Sneakers were returned to *****. ***** notified me that they got the wrong shoes and wont be issues a refund. I asked them to ship shoes back to me. They did, but charged me 14 dollars for shipment. Amazon was contacted by me MANY MANY MANY times to resolve this, finally they issued a refund for the pair they have received. However they applied the refund to the wrong order and instead of $******, they refunded $128.65!!!. In order to untangle the mess Amazon employee has created by it negligence, **************** has to unapply the payment and apply it to the correct order ( BUT THEY ARE UNABLE TO DO IT- or so they say).Amazon **************** rep said that he will try to see if he can send the boots they ended up with back to me so I can return them to ***** and get a refund. ***** return policy says their window for returns is TODAY! Which means they wont refund even if Amazon gets their act together and send the shoes back.To make things worse Amazon **************** got involved saying things that have nothing to do with the case.I am stuck with shoes that dont work, and $ ****** that Amazon owes me. And they have no any way to escalate this because their customer service rep informed me that he is the highest authority on this, accept for the ****************** Claims emailed me and asked not to write them about this anymore, they might not respond.I think what needs to be done at this point is Amazon needs to return shoes to ***** and refund me for the shoes, since i missed the return window, because Amazon didn't return shoes to me. I am going to return the shoes I have to Amazon.

      Hello!Hope you are well.I ordered chocolates from Amazon, but only half the order came through. I placed the order on 4/21/2023. I paid a total of $66.50, for a quantity of (5) 24 packs of chocolates. When the delivery was fulfilled only (5) 12 packs arrived, not the advertised 24 packs. I have contracted Amazon numerous times, which included multiple photos of the amount I received. However, Amazon has repeatedly denied there were missing shipments and that the order was what I wanted. I have email conversations with Amazon. The last email was asking why their advertised product was 24 packs, instead of 12, and I had not received any responses or answers since. If nessescary, I can provide copies of the email conversations with Amazon. Since then, Amazon has ignored my questions and the dispute has been unresolved. Attached are both photos and screenshots of the products I received. If you need more photos, I will provide those as well. All products were not eaten, and untouched, outside of opening the box. Below is the relevant account information for Amazon:Account Name: *********** Order Number: 111-8689959-9551452 Tracking Number: ********************** According to the tracking, delivery arrived, but not containing all the products I have purchased. I would like to ask you for your assistance in resolving this matter. If possible, I would like to ask for either 1) The remaining (5) 12 packs of chocolate a 2) a Refund for half of the cost. I would like to thank you for your time and assistance. I am hopeful that we can work together to resolve this issue in a fair and timely manner.Best Regards,******

      Unfair Negative Reviews and Inadequate Amazon Review Policy Enforcement To the Better Business Bureau,I am writing to file a complaint against Amazon for their lack of action in addressing an ongoing issue concerning unfair negative reviews left by competitors on our product listing, the Ring Shot Game by SKEI. Our Amazon Complaint ID is ***********.We have evidence to suggest that these negative reviews are intentionally left by big sellers who employ illegal methods to harm new competitors, such as purchasing negative reviews. Despite reporting the issue to Amazon, they have not taken any effective measures to investigate and resolve the problem. It appears that Amazon does not track the source of reviews adequately, and their review policy enforcement is insufficient.This situation has significantly impacted our business, causing harm to our reputation and sales. We believe that customers deserve accurate and fair information about the products they are purchasing, and Amazon's inaction only enables malicious competitors to continue these harmful practices.We kindly request the Better Business Bureau's assistance in investigating this issue and urging Amazon to take appropriate action to prevent further abuse. We hope that with your involvement, Amazon will be encouraged to improve its review policy enforcement, ensuring a fair and honest marketplace for all sellers.Thank you for your attention to this matter.Sincerely,*************************

      Dear Seller Performance Team,
      Thank you for your response. I am disappointed to learn that no action has been taken regarding the reported policy violation on ASIN B09MJP4Y3S for review abuse. I firmly believe that our competitors have been leaving negative reviews to harm our product's reputation and sales.
      To provide more details, please find the required information below:
      ASIN: B09MJP4Y3S
      Marketplace: Amazon.com
      Seller: Unknown
      Violation Type: Review Abuse
      We have observed a pattern of negative reviews on our product page that seems to be coming from competitors. These reviews contain misleading and false information about our product, which is damaging our brand image and customer trust. We kindly request that you investigate these reviews and take appropriate action against the parties involved.
      Additionally, we noticed that our product currently has a total of 20 ratings, with only 5 of them having written reviews. This implies that 15 of the ratings are potentially fake and may have been generated by our competitors to further sabotage our sales and reputation.
      These reviews contain inaccurate and misleading information about our product, leading ** to believe that they are malicious in nature and aimed at sabotaging our sales.
      We kindly ask you to re-evaluate our complaint and take appropriate action to address the review abuse on ASIN B09MJP4Y3S. We are confident that a thorough investigation will reveal the true nature of these reviews and help us protect our brand's reputation on Amazon.
      Thank you for your attention to this matter. We look forward to your prompt response and resolution.

      Hello.Amazon suspended our selling account accusing us of the drop shipping in violation of their Drop Shipping Policy.But, we never ever did a drop shipping. We used amazon "buy shipping" option and these shipping labels.All the items were shipped directly from our rented warehouse to the customers. We have all the proofs, please see them attached.We already tried to appeal their decision but they just rejected our appeal without any explanation. We doubt that someone even read it.Please, help us to resolve it and to get back on selling. We have inventory to sell and employees to pay out. Thanks.

I had purchased some beautiful ray bands from Sunglass Hut I paid $****** for two pair beautiful ray bands I accidentally sent my ****Bans back to beautiful pair instead of the three pair I bought from Amazon for $107. I sent them back end of February. I called the last week of February to let them know what happened They said they would look into it. I gave him some time they didnt have continuous call to get help. Finally had to call Amazon headquarters. Anyways, I received email saying they have received my glasses but they didnt they received my ****Bans expensive pair instead of theirs so whoever and I cant say for sure, of course but whoever said they received them they didnt they did not return my glasses to the supervisor let them know I sent the wrong glasses. Im a believing they kept him. Im not a 9.9 sure positive that they kept my beautiful ****** dollars *********** headquarters said they can do nothing for me. Supposedly corporate check to see if they turned in my Ray bans obviously no one did. Thats why Im saying the employee kept them I was requesting a refund for my sunglasses or to send them back. Corporate said I would never get them back. They refused to reimburse me my money. Yes, it was my mistake sit in the wrong glasses back, but they have an employee whos lying and kept my expensive ****Ban glasses hoping you can help me.

      My car was parked half-way down my driveway with a power washer and hose in front of it as I had just gotten done with auto maintenance. While I was in my house, an Amazon driver came down my driveway and drove off my driveway through dirt and gravel to get around my car to deliver a package. This entailed driving on my neighbors land as my driveway is exactly on the edge of my lot. He then drove over my fully charged hose twice to do a k-turn to get out. All of this saved him 40 feet of walking had he just parked behind my car. Not a safety issue to do so as there was another 50 feet of room behind my car before he would have been in the street. The delivery was an envelope that weighed approximately 2 pounds. Not a burden to take a few extra steps. When I saw what was going on I confronted him and he stated he "had no choice" but to take the action he had. The incident happened at my address, which you have on file: *********************************************************************** at 12:12 PM Pacific. I never want to see this driver again, but I expect a hand-written letter of apology from this driver, a new 100' foot house to replace the one he damaged, and ideally his termination as he's a liability to Amazon and our entire neighborhood.

      ORDER # ***-3962106-6383427 Amazon Fire HD 10 tablet, ****", ****p Full HD, 32 GB, latest model (2021 release), Black Sold by: Amazon.com Services LLC $84.99 Condition: New (There are multiple items in this order, this complaint is regarding the above mentioned item.)This order was placed on Jan 27 2023. I received the item on Jan 29 2023 and then returned it on Feb 23 2023. I contacted amazon numerous times regarding the status of the refund and I was told each time that the ***** HAS BEEN RECIEVED" and the refund could take up to 60 days which was April 26 2023. I contacted amazon on April 28 2023 when I still have not received the refund and was told that since the return was not processed they can not issue the refund, and instead I should contact the carrier. I responded that amazon has already confirmed numerous times that they have received the item so it has nothing to do with the carrier, and what's even more interesting is that in the same box that I returned the item in question I also returned a few other items and I received a refund for all of them except this one, so they obviously received the item!

      Complaint: 19995278

      I am rejecting this response because: First of all Amazon confirmed via live chat that the item in question has been received, so if for some reason it was not scanned properly into the system "THAT IS AMAZON'S FAULT, NOT MINE!", And therefore it is Amazon's responsibility to either get the item scanned or take the loss by refunding me! Second of all the proof that Amazon received the return is that all the items they mentioned in their response were returned in the same box as the item in question so they must have received it and messed up! That is Amazon's responsibility not mine!!!

      Sincerely,

      *******************************

      On April 19th I made a purchase for a Steam Deck 256gb order number 112-8351546-8482644. For $705.13. When I open the box I notice the device was only 64 GB and not what I paid for. I contacted Amazon on April 20 and let them know about this. They told me they could not send me the correct device that they would have to initiate a pickup. On April 21st a *** driver came and pick up the package from me and gave me a receipt. *** tracking number 1Z1V17R57824256606. The package stop transmitting up dates on 4/25. I called *** and the told me that the package was liking lost and they could not update that status to lost in transit unless Amazon initiated an investigation for it due the contract that they have with Amazon. I called Amazon a got an overseas call center. I explain the situation and asked if they could initiate the investigation so the system would update and I could expediate my refund. I was told that they don't have any contract with *** stating that they couldn't initiate an investigation on their own. I was also told I would not receive my refund until the product was scanned in at the return location in *********, **. I tried to get this escalated but each time I call Amazon or *** I keep getting the same response. *** saying Amazon needs to initiate lost investigation. Amazon keeps telling me *** has to do it or I need to wait but I cant get my refund until they receive the product. I have done my part and now I don't have my product or my money. Also, the return was canceled after the fact yesterday after my latest complaint call to Amazon, so I no longer have proof on there website that they started the return process.

      I am rejecting this response because: I have uploaded email and website confirmation from *** stating they delivered the return product back to Amazon. They as a company need legally refund my money now.
