The fixed position form on the left hand side lays over the content unless your browser is really wide. Basically makes the content unreadable on mobile.

This is utterly bogus.<p>According to the article he really did sell a counterfeit item.<p>Presumably accidentally, and perhaps the punishment does not fit the crime, but he can&#x27;t claim complete innocence here.<p>And this demonstrates that he doesn&#x27;t understand how amazon works:<p>&gt; When we sent out all of our items to the FBA program, they all went to 2 different Amazon warehouses. Now that I’m receiving them back, guess what? So far, the new sealed product has arrived back from 9 different warehouses. Yep, they’re sending back someone else’s new sealed items to me.<p>NO! Amazon has a program where they internally distribute items to warehouses all over the US to increase shipping speed. It does not mean they are shipping someone else&#x27;s items back to you.

Color me naieve here.....<p>Some signed some kind of agreement with amazon, has tens of thousands of items in their warehouses, and is running a business where amazon is basically responsible for everything.<p>Amazon decides to drop them.<p>The reasoning sounds unfair, but this business is unable or unwilling to pay for lawyers, and didn&#x27;t consider what would happen in the event the relationship ended and there was still stock in the warehouse?<p>That sounds like a failure on the part of the seller to me.
