Is Using Amazon FBA Risking Too Much Control?

[EPerceptions]

So I've been working hard on a new product line this year and for a variety of reasons, I decided to use Amazon's fulfillment services.

While reviewing my highlights and notes from TMFL book, it occurred to me that I may be risking too much control with that decision.

Some merchants who frequent the Amazon seller forums would have you believe that sneezing wrong can get your account suspended or shut down. This seems highly unlikely for products I'm producing but in theory maybe it can happen since it is their playground.

So do you think am I putting myself at too big of a risk having all inventory tied up for a time?
