Returns are inevitable. Revenue loss doesn’t have to be.

For every eCommerce brand, returns create a fork in the road: write-off the inventory and eat the margin loss—or recover and rework it into sellable stock. If you’re selling through Amazon FBA, FBM, or DTC, the difference between bleeding revenue and reclaiming profit is your returns processing strategy.

Why Returns Management is a Revenue Lever

Most sellers treat returns like operational drag. Smart sellers treat them like an opportunity for recovery. With proper workflows, you can:

• Restock Grade A items into Amazon
• Re-prep and relabel Grade B units for DTC or FBM
• Sort and salvage parts from Grade C returns
• Reduce FBA disposal fees
• Increase sustainability (lower landfill impact)

At scale, your returns strategy becomes a margin multiplier.

The Anatomy of Returns Processing

Here’s how MyFBAPrep’s Amazon Returns Processing service works:

1. Inspection

Each return is opened and inspected by trained warehouse personnel. Our team identifies item condition, missing components, packaging quality, and Amazon compliance issues.

2. Grading (A/B/C)

We use a standardized condition grading system:

• Grade A: New or like-new. Can be sent directly back to Amazon.
• Grade B: Gently used or minor cosmetic damage. Suitable for DTC, FBM, or Open Box resale.
• Grade C: Broken, heavily damaged, or incomplete. Candidates for part salvage, liquidation, or recycling.

3. Re-Prep & Compliance

Depending on your resale path, we:

• Relabel FNSKUs
• Repackage items
• Shrink wrap or polybag
• Remove prior stickers
• Replace dunnage or manuals

4. Reintegration

Once reworked, inventory is ready for:

• FBA restock
• FBM/SFP pick & pack
• DTC fulfillment (Shopify, Amazon Buy with Prime, etc.)
• Liquidation or wholesale
