Fifteen years inside Amazon wholesale — the expertise behind every case
Amazon wholesale
How this market operates, not how it is described.
Supplier vetting
Whether a business is real, and what its records don't show.
IP risk
How brands police listings, and what that pattern implies.
Invoice review
The fourteen document fields we check on every invoice.
Account risk
What puts a selling account at risk — and what doesn't.
Brand enforcement
How a brand crackdown starts, and what it looks like beforehand.
These are the domains we assess. None of them is a promise about your outcome.
One supplier in. One report back.
Nothing to set up and nothing to learn. A supplier name goes in, and the same checks run against it that run against every other supplier on the platform.
Twenty-four hours later a report comes back. Here is exactly what is in it.
See a real report- 1A written report, in 24 hours.
- 2One verdict, out of 4. Never a score.
- 3Every finding, with the source we got it from.
- 4A plain list of what we could not confirm.
- 5The exact questions to ask your supplier — before you pay.
Suspensions rarely start with the seller.
They start upstream — with a brand, a channel, or a piece of paper that could not do the job it was bought to do. By the time it reaches you, the money is spent.
- Step one
A brand decides to tighten
Enforcement is a business decision made by someone you will never meet, and it usually applies to a whole listing at once.
- Step two
The channel is questioned
The question is where the stock came from. That answer lives with your supplier and with theirs — a chain you cannot see from a purchase order.
- Step three
The consequence lands on you
The complaint attaches to your account, not the supplier's. The stock is already yours and the payout is already held.
Where we fit, stated plainly: we cannot stop any of that, and we will never tell you a supplier is safe. What we can do is make the upstream facts checkable while the decision is still yours.
5 areas. Each one states its own limit.
The same questions, asked the same way, on every supplier — what we examine at each stage, and what that stage honestly cannot conclude.
Does this business actually exist?
First question: is there a real business behind the name on that invoice? We start with public records, then look for someone other than the supplier saying the same thing. A state filing on its own means very little. Plenty of companies are registered and nobody is trading.
The limit: a missing record is a gap, not proof of anything.
Is the brand relationship real?
The supplier says they carry the brand. We look for anyone other than the supplier saying so. Their own word is the weakest kind of proof there is, and we write it down as exactly that. A letter they wrote about themselves is still just them talking.
The limit: nobody can confirm authorization from outside — those deals are private.
How does this brand treat resellers?
Brands leave a trail of how they treat third-party sellers. We read it — what they have done before, what they have gated, and how many sellers have come and gone on that listing over a year. A brand that has never touched a seller looks nothing like one that cleared a listing last month.
The limit: we show you the pattern, not the future.
Will the paperwork stand up?
A fourteen-point read of your paperwork, judged against the deal in front of you rather than ticked off a list. A missing field is not automatically a problem. What matters is whether a supplier like this, selling this brand, at this quantity, would normally leave it out.
The limit: good paperwork is not protection — a brand complaint is a separate risk.
Does the whole story hold together?
The last area checks the other four against each other. Does the price make sense for this kind of supplier? Would a company this size really carry these brands? Is the route they described the one you can actually see? Anything that does not add up gets said out loud.
The limit: we can't tell you a deal is good — only whether it's what it looks like.

See everything we checkNot a score. One of 4 answers.
A number invites you to argue with it. A verdict tells you what to do next — and the level is always written out, so it reads the same to everyone.
- Level 1 of 4
Source Clear
The evidence supported this source at the time of research. Standard diligence still applies — the decision stays yours.
- Level 2 of 4
Usable With Conditions
Workable — with the stated conditions handled first. The conditions are part of the verdict, not a footnote.
- Level 3 of 4
Verify Before Purchase
Do not place a large order — resolve the listed items first. Re-submit for an updated review once resolved.
- Level 4 of 4
Do Not Rely
The evidence does not support relying on this source. The report explains what drove this.
Fifteen years of reading one graph.
How a brand behaves toward third-party sellers leaves a trace. Most people look at this line and see a number. We were taught, expensively, to read the shape.
One brand, twelve months
Third-party sellers on one listing — an example
This is the shape we look for: a steady seller count that falls hard over a few weeks, while the price does not move.
Illustrative example, not a real listing.
Your report carries the graph, what we think it means, and what it does not prove. We do not publish how we read it. That part took fifteen years to learn, and it is why two reports on the same evidence reach the same verdict.
We won't say you'll get ungated
Gating decisions belong to the marketplace. We can tell you what the paperwork looks like and how the brand has been behaving. Nobody honest can tell you the outcome.
We won't say a supplier is authorized
Authorization lives in private agreements between a brand and a distributor. We tell you what we could check ourselves and give you the questions that get proof.
We won't say your account is safe
A clean invoice and a brand IP claim are independent risks. Good paperwork does not protect you from enforcement — we separate the two rather than blur them.
Two ways to buy. Same discipline in both.
Every plan delivers in 24 hours. Every supplier gets the same checks, in the same order, whatever you paid.
