Congratulations on your successful contest Nathan.
Do you have any suggestions on how to handle the FBA inventory of perhaps 60% of unsold books that keeps increasing as you list more books?
Eventually Amazon will have to limit the period books can remain in inventory and sellers will have to pay a fee for shipment back to them plus a picking fee, or a similar fee for Amazon to dispose of them.

As long as your items are priced competitively they will sell eventually. The storage fees are pretty low, so I don’t mind if it takes months to sell. I don’t think that Amazon will ever make sellers ship the inventory back to the seller. The long tail strategy works well for both Amazon and the Amazon FBA sellers.
