Revealed: Millions of items destroyed
This option will be available in the US at the end of this year, and in Germany, France, Italy and Spain early next year. It is already possible in the UK.
Perhaps the latter was not accidental. in June onthulde ITV News Amazon has millions of new unsold laptops, televisions, drones, headphones, and hair dryers that are destroyed every year.
Buying unsold shares
Another option is the FBA Liquidations program, which allows sellers to attempt to reduce losses on returned or unsold items through Amazon’s own infrastructure. Then it is bought by other companies, for example.
