How much inventory should you buy for a variation listing (wholesale)?
This is one of the most common questions I see in wholesale, and honestly, most people are just guessing. You don't have to. There's a simple way to figure this out using Keepa and SellerAmp. Here's how I break it down. Step 1️⃣: Find the variation split on Keepa Go to Keepa and click on the Variation tab. Scroll to the right and you'll see a column called Review Percentage. This shows you how sales are split between the different variations (colors, sizes, etc). Let's say there are 2 variations. One is doing 86% of sales, and the other is doing 14%. And let's say the whole listing sells 5,000 units a month. You're interested in the variation doing 14%. because it has high profits Step 2️⃣: Work out the monthly sales for that specific variation. Just multiply the total sales by the percentage. 5,000 x 14% = 700 sales a month for that variation. Step 3️⃣: Check how many sellers are on that listing. Now head over to SellerAmp and check the seller count for that ASIN. Let's say there are 20 sellers. Step 4️⃣: Divide the sales by the number of sellers. 700 / 20 = 35 sales per month, per seller. That number (35) is roughly what you can expect to sell each month if you're one of 20 sellers on that variation. Step 5️⃣: Now decide your inventory From here, it's up to you. If you're comfortable getting a 2-3 month supply, you'd order somewhere around 70 to 105 units for that specific variation. If you want to start smaller and test it first, order less and scale up once you see how fast it actually moves for you. The key thing here is you're not just looking at total listing sales. You're breaking it down by variation and by seller count, so you're not overbuying stock nobody's going to touch, or underbuying something that could've sold way more. Anyone else have a method they use for this? Curious to see how other people approach it.

Ungating inquiring
Hello everyone, My name is Sirak, and I started selling on Amazon this month. However, I have a question. Every time I try to get ungated in a particular category, I end up getting ungated for a specific brand instead, which was not my original intention. How do you know which products to buy from a distributor that will allow you to get ungated in a particular category rather than just a specific brand? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

@Anthony Mancini I checked CanFlip and the Keepa integration looks really interesting. I had a few questions if you dont mind. 1. Does CanFlip check the actual approval status directly from Seller Central for each ASIN, or is any of the data cached? 2. Does the tool work with other marketplaces? 3. Does CanFlip detect changes in approval status if an ASIN was previously restricted but later becomes sellable? 4. Are there any limitations or situations where the status might be inaccurate?

@Anthony Mancini Thank you sooo Much for taking the time to explain all of that! That clears things up a lot. I really like the fact that it checks against the seller’s own account rather than relying on a generic ungated list. Appreciate the detailed answers. 🤝
