Amazon Issue15 Mar 2021 09:07
Whilst I think getting the product launched on Amazon is great we do have to admit there is a big elephant in the room.
If I go to Amazon because I have heard about this and search for coronavirus killing face mask (our USP) it does not appear. Why?, because Amazon do not allow it. If they did allow it by standard rules the chinese companies would just fill the site with false claims and our mask would be drowned out with cheaper priced ones.
Amazon should allow the use of Coronavirus Killing Face Masks on a product by product basis. In other words they should look at the claims of the manufacturer and if they can be backed up then it should be allowed. They are costing themselves money and they are preventing honest trading on their platform.
The same issue applies for Facebook and E-Bay. I wonder if the company have an answer for this as it will really affect sales badly as at present there is no big reason to buy the masks on Amazon, there is no differential from many other masks and they are expensive using the current comparrison on Amazon to others. I think they are being Very Unfair on a genuine product.
Having said that, there are many other routes to market and sales in Europe should be massive with the current spike in covid cases.
