How to Sell Items Not Listed in Amazon's Catalog

Selling your used items on Amazon.com earns you extra money, but if you search through the catalog to sell an item not already on the Amazon.com website, you may need to create your own page. In order to sell unlisted items on Amazon.com, you must have a Pro-Merchant account, which requires you to pay a monthly membership fee. This membership fee entitles you as a Pro-Merchant to waive the standard closing fee, but you must share between 6 and 20 percent of your final earnings with Amazon.com after a sale.

Things You'll Need

• Amazon.com Pro Merchant Account
• Product UPC code

Instructions

1. Log in to your Amazon.com Pro-Merchant account.

2. Choose "Create a Page" from your Pro-Merchant account dashboard.

3. Categorize the item, choosing from the list of categories the most appropriate description for the item. For example, if you sell handmade clothing, categorize the item under "Apparel," and then choose a subcategory that specifically defines your apparel.

4. Fill in all details on the product identification page, including the product name, manufacturer, UPC code if applicable, brand name and model number. Select "Next."

5. Create a description of your product, set the price and choose shipping options. Preview your listing.

6. Add the new product listing to Amazon.com's catalog, and it will be available under the chosen category when potential buyers search the catalog.
