Online retail giant Amazon told third-party sellers that it will no longer accept inbound shipments of items under the “Fulfillment by Amazon” program unless the products are deemed a high priority amid the coronavirus pandemic.
“We are seeing increased online shopping and as a result some products such as household staples and medical supplies are out of stock. With this in mind, we are temporarily prioritizing household staples, medical supplies, and other high-demand products coming into our fulfillment centers so that we can more quickly receive, restock, and ship these products to customers,” Amazon wrote on Tuesday.
