[@giovannigaez13]

Thanks Camron for this tutorial. In 20 minutes, you have provided a bunch of info needed to start the shipments and avoid any errors.

[@christiannie-g8b]

Please contact me if you need to transport goods from China to the United States.

[@mesheahudson5209]

Camron you are a beast. I have watched other video and the person will go so fast or make it so hard to follow by using so many technical words. You explained it in such an easy way. Thanks

[@grahamhodder985]

I just looked up on KZbin ' Shipping plan amazon FBA Cameron James'' and this video was uploaded an hour ago...so awesome, thanks Camron

[@CamronJames]

great timing my man!

[@ERICARIVAS20]

Thank you! The best explanation. Working on sending my first shipment and have been looking at several videos. Yours covered all my questions

[@CamronJames]

Glad it helped

[@steveflatbush]

Great work at helping us figure out how to do shipping. I started and had to cancel a shipment because the manufacturer doesn't use pallets. Thanks!

[@samirdoua2319]

Thanks, very easy to understand, I completed all my shipping work from this tutorial.

[@bernivillalon2111]

You don't sound like a broken record. Thank you!

[@gonzalomontebelli6499]

Hi Camron ! Thanks for the great content about Amazon FBA; it’s been really helpful. I have a question: Could I face any issues if my supplier didn’t include the 'Made in China' label under the logo on my product (a plate) or on the inner box, but it’s placed on the outer box and listed as 'Made in China' on the Amazon listing? I’m also using Amazon Global Logistics for shipping, and my shipment is already in the middle of the ocean. I just want to make sure everything is in order to avoid any problems. I’d really appreciate your advice on this. Thanks!

[@123-DDP]

Don't worry about this, there will be no big problem, but in the future, it is best to ask the supplier to put this label on the packaging of the product and the outer box. I am a freight forwarder, we will come across this area often, so we know very well, by the way, if you need ship from China to FBA warehouse,i would love to caculate the shipping cost for you, maybe it is cheaper than your use. and it is convenient

[@melcarbs818]

Thanks for being so clear and making it simple. This is great.

[@onlythebex]

Woo that last sentence at the end just saved me from sending LTL shipment as SPD, you are the best Camron, thank you!

Does the SKU label go on each unit or each carton?

[@billcooper3639]

Great video Camron. This helped very much. Thanks!!

[@CamronJames]

Glad it helped! Thanks for watching!

[@svetlanabirriel440]

HI Camron, what to do if my manufacturer packs 1000 units into 6 boxes of 145 units and 1 box of 130 units? When I am trying to create a shipment it Amazon wants an equal amount of units per box. Please help

[@gabrielsanchez4207]

Same boat, did you figure this one out? It's not letting me shit the total quantity

[@Silva-vw2ux]

Wonderful !! You just got a new subscriber my friend!

[@shakeharzoomanian9478]

I wish I had come across this tutorial first. The university videos are not as detailed. Great video. Thanks.

[@CamronJames]

Thanks for the comment! I completely agree about Seller University. Keep checking back for more updates and tutorials.

[@qtypz714]

Awesome video. Love the step by step process

[@CamronJames]

Thanks so much! Keep checking back for more updates!

[@AlissaBlue-i9z]

Hi I have a question, what if I am sending a product that has 4 color options? 1- would I need 4 skus? 2- if so how would I go about doing that because I don’t see an options for that when setting up my shipping plan. The boxes have a color selector selection where my manufacturer is going to check the box of the color that is in the box I am just wondering if each color needs its own sku sticker

[@123-DDP]

Different colors will definitely be different SKUs, you need to creat the SKU by yourself

[@michaeldiez5264]

As always, thank you for the very detailed information you provide in your channel, Camron!

[@tauseefkhanspeaks]

Good job and well explained every single tiny step.I will say thank you and you doing a great job.

[@ladyVictoria.E.L]

[@BlackSheepEvents]

[@blueskys5514]

thanks man you're the goat.

[@jesgetme]

So in the beginning stages but this is the part I was just curious about. Great video man!! I'm ready to go

[@CamronJames]

You got this!

[@StephanieJacques-x1m]

your videos are SO helpful thank you - what do I do when my SKU is in more than 1 box but each box has a different number of units and so a different weight too?

[@brianveliz9613]

I am confused!!! when i click " send to amazon" Amazon asks me for the Shipfrom address ect. But when i try to make an order from the suupplier, they ask me for the shipping address but amazon wont give me the ware house address until i fill out the contac info from supplier. i am confusedddd, so am suppossed to ask supplier for their address and name before making an order?

[@EliganceVibes77]

Yes

[@monjurmorshed3731]

Its a great video with a lot of valuable information. But one thing sounds very confusing. Like when you said that we should print the labels and add the labels in the boxes by ourselves bcz each sticker cost 30 cents. But if we are ordering from China , how can we put the labels in the boxes ny ourselves?? Then eventually we need to send the labels to our manufacturers , right ???

[@yvonnetran429]

HI Camron, thanks for all the info in the video. I have one question that you didn't mention. I plan to ship garments of different sizes in a box. How do you enter in the shipping plan? For example, I have 100 units of size M and 150 unit of size L in a master carton box. Do I go to my listing for Size M and enter # of box - 1, and # of unit-100, then go to Size L to enter # box - 1, and # of unit - 150?

[@FahadNaeem-w1b]

just one thing, I am being charged for placement fee, which in your case is zero. why am i being charged for it? if you can help thanks

[@28eken4]

[@lindadixon7692]

[@montanaj6732]

When getting quotes from manufacturers, how to know what Amazon warehouse to provide them with to get accurate price quotes for shipping???

[@chunpanchan1682]

Thanks for your tutorial.. One thing I would like to ask is at the edit dropdown list, I could not locate the "Print item label button", my listing is new and have no variation.

[@niftaroonie]

is there any way maybe via a program or software that I can choose what fullfillment center I said my shipments to or do I have to do the one they pick for me?

[@jkny771]

On the shipping label that will go on master cartons, do you need to specify country of origin? (Made in China)?

[@Mr.Ladisla]

hi Camron. This is a big help. I just have a question. what if i'm using a DHL box and inside that box is my master carton for my products. is it possible? or the DHL box be considered as my Master carton box. can you help me here. Thank you and more power!

[@sensorlight7280]

Thanks Camron -Top video😀

[@jithin9786599183]

Maximum Units per box is 150

[@875daily]

Cameron, do you create a new packing template for each product in "Send to Amazon" I have multiple ASINs going into one box. thanks

[@gobeuactive]

Thanks for the vid Cameron... Can I ask your advice,, My shipping plan got cancelled, but stock is on its way. Amazon have advised me the stock won't be accepted unless a delivery appointment has been made. It hasn't been made yet! They asked me to make a new shipping plan but thats tricky seeing as stock is on its way via UPS. My forwarder say that when we get proof of delivery it will be added to stock, but I feel like its a ll a gamble and dont want to incur removal fees. Any advice? Thanks.

[@eldartaganov3284]

Should I put in the barcode with Asian number on the package Made in China? In one video one Bloger was saying it is mandatory, but I see my competitors don’t say I anything about where it’s coming from. So I believe it is mandatory.

[@rickanderson1307]

Hey Camron! How does it work if you have more than one SKU packed in one box to the fulfillment center? Does each overpack carton have to contain only one SKU or can you have multiple SKU's in an over pack box? EXCELLENT VIDEO!

[@DOBBIE-oi8rd]

Did u ever get the answer to this? I’m stuck on this too

[@rickanderson1307]

No but you can put different sku’s in an over pack box.

[@TheYohan1989]

Hi Camron! Very informative video. I just wanted to ask the process in which we are to dropship the product and we've listed it as FBM. What's the process? Do I send the labels to the suppliers? And do they get picked up by the Amazon partnered couriers? And what if our suppliers offer free shipping, what steps do we need to go through. Thank you so much.

[@larrypuzner4091]

what lables to put on the itmes inside the box when its coming from China?

[@jthompson6497]

great content Camron...question ...after SPD is selected and all info is entered and labels are printed, what is the next step in terms of contacting UPS for the boxes to be picked up from my local supplier? Thanks in advance.

Another Q! Iam amazon seller in Sweden and I use to send my products to Amazon Sweden. Soon I will open and start selling in Germeny marketplace. What is best to ship my products to Amazon Sweden warehouse or Germeny warehouse?

[@Eroll9094]

thanks for the great explanation Camron,could you please let me know if i am shipping from turkey,still can accept the (ups amazon partner carrier0or have to select other from non amazon partner and send through forwarders in turkey??i mean ups will serve only in local service or also out of the countries.

[@BudimirSanic]

What is your opinion, if product is seasonal, is it ok to start with sales just after the season, slowly to prepare for the other or we should target season for the sales start?

[@MaverickMarket24]

Hey I'm at 7:58 and I used 22x19x25 and 14 pounds and I get 2 warnings. 1 says Box volume does not meet the expected minimum cubic inch. 2,121,408.00 and #2 says box weight does not meet the expected minimum of 192 pounds. (I'm shipping plastic 1 liter bottles) so if I hit confirm and continue it automatically changes my dimensions. Not sure how to get the dimensions correct. The box says 58x48x63.5 centimeters. I converted to inches. Not sure what I'm doing wrong

[@MaverickMarket24]

Sorry also when I go to 12:00 minute mark I see that my shipping plan doesn't qualify for Amazon optimized or partial ship options. So I don't see an amount under the shipping mode (small parcel delivery) this all stems from me forcing this thru when I was getting the previous errors with dimensions.

[@lisapowers8517]

Thanks for this video! Quick question, do I need to apply the Amazon barcodes to the products or just place them inside the box?

[@123-DDP]

print

[@morphanok6932]

Do you recommend sending in initial trial orders directly into amazon? 150 units.

[@TFamVlogs]

Thank you so much for the help. Im hoping to ship soon and with your tutorial, its less intimidating. Again, Thank you, you're educating us well. Continue to post more Much love

[@sukhmindermangat6656]

Thanks Cameron …. To the point and it worked!!!

[@kathylicious08]

If we stick the SKU labels on the products, where do we stick the product barcodes?

[@AllYearLiquidationLLC]

hey camron when sending in FBA do you updated inventory first or do amazon update inventory when they receive it?

[@krizy444]

Thanks for the video! I don't have a duplicate of any item...I have 40 different items that I want to send in. Can we see how that would be done?

[@SinkEvolution]

Great video! quick question regarding the FNSKU, from what I understand when you create an amazon listing you will get the FNSKU and you when you create an amazon shipping plan you will also get an FNSKU. Is it the same ? or the amazon listing FNSKU must be stuck on the packaging of the product and shipping plan FNSKU must be stuck on the cartons/box ?

[@Vico1404]

Hey, can I change the ship from address every time that I'm listing a new product or it has to be the same?

[@Tech-Oclock]

When printing SKU if my supplier is sending me 100 units they should print 100 sku right? Put the product on a poly bag and stick the sku sticker outside of it right? Hope you answer thank you

[@UniversalStoriesAI]

Thank you brother god bless you, you are very good and kind person I like you❤👏👍

[@richardturner8215]

Thank you! Great video. While I was finishing manufacturing my product, my account was deactivated due to inactivity. I've submitted the verification documents and then tried to ship inventory to amazon. The shipment workflow keeps getting stuck at step 1b, where it's trying to find a fulfillment center to ship to. Is this because of the deactivated account that has yet to be activated or potentially from some other issue?

[@casaiubirii130]

Do I need to send invoice with the shipment also? Thanks!😊

Hi Camron, this video was useful. I have not created my listing yet because waiting for sample product, but my question is... Do i need to create listing first before creating shipment plan, And if i create listing page, does that go active on Amazon even though i have not shipped product from supplier yet. Can you explain steps from start to finish on how to have the end result of my product listed on Amazon and maybe make some cashola?? Thanks

[@redcrimson718]

Thank you for this informative and clear tutorial!

[@MehmetKara-t1g]

What I don't understand is, where and how do we get the UPS labels we will apply on the Master Cartons? It's not the same as the fnsku barcodes, right?

No problem. Best of luck, happy selling, and thanks for watching!

Is there a way you can push print to download the shipping labels?? I currently don't have a printer and it's not opening that shipping window for me 😔 but If I could send it to my email I could print it out at my job

Hi Cameron, great tutorial. Just a quick question, what if my manufacturer packs 2 boxes of 40 units each and a 3rd box of 20 units to total 100 units? When I enter 3 boxes in the ready to send section, the system defaults the number of units to 120 for this reason. Is there another line I can enter 20 units in 3rd box?

Hey, ive got a question, so if i put an master label on a box, do i also need to put SKUs on individual units too? Or only the master packing?

yes ,FNSKU is needed

[@liquilinks]

Can you clarify how we are supposed to notate this in our Shopify inventory? I manager all my inventory through Shopify, so when I send product to Amazon, I don't want to mark it as sold because technically it hasn't sold yet. So really, should I just create a new location in Shopify and transfer inventory to that location aka "amazon"? And then how would I make sure that amazon is pulling inventory from that location when an FBA sale is made? Currently I integrate Amazon and Shopify through Codisto

Hello Camron, we are selling individual units but the case pack is 36. Is it fine to ship like that or do I need to pack each unit individually?

[@paolomonterroso1673]

I have seen many online arbitrage sellers buying products from other websites such as target, walgreens, and walmart. Since these products are not sent to the warehouse by a supplier you work closely with, would you have to then ship that inventory to the warehouse from your own house? If so, wouldn't that mean more shipping costs (sending the inventory to your house + sending inventory to the warehouse?
