It's literally a step-by-step class that just doesn't leave anything unclear. So happy I watched this. ” - Steff S

“Hi Sumner. Thank you for sharing with us what you learned first hand over the years selling on Amazon. Your explanations were concise (which is good) but at the same time very detailed, and they helped me a lot to better understand the whole shipping process, which for me was a bit messy at the beginning. I really liked the fact that you always gave your advice about everything, because, for one like me who is new to all these kinds of things, starting with a concrete plan of action is definitely better than starting blind. Thank you for the material you provide us too. The "purchase order agreement" template and the “AMZ Escape Plan FBA Feild Guide” pdf will be very helpful. So great job man. Keep it up. ” - Andrea S

“Thank you Sumner. This was an excellent intro for me into this world of sourcing Chinese suppliers. My number one concern was picking the correct shipping methods..... and shipping options. This quick overview was great for someone like me that has rarely dared to source outside of a customs union. (I'm in the EU) Thanx again. ” - Peter G
