According to foreign reports, on December 21, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a ban on the Amazon platform ** magnetic ball sets, because such magnetic balls may cause serious harm or even death to children. This set contains a number of colored balls, most of which are sold in clear plastic boxes**, and are popular with children of all ages because of their unique shape and bright colors.
There have been news reports in China that a two-year-old girl was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment after ingesting a magnetic ball by mistake, and the doctor divided it three times and took out 27 magnetic balls before the girl was out of danger. There was also a five-year-old patient who had a total of 190 elastic balls removed from his stomach. Magnetic balls, also called buck beads, are actually a kind of adult stress relief supplies, and are not suitable for children under the age of 14 as toys, but now there are many mother and baby stores, children's toy stores selling magnetic balls, and also marking the magnetic balls with the label of children's educational toys.
Amazon officially said that the magnetic ball set was sold by a Chinese seller on the Amazon platform, and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has issued a violation warning notice to the seller. But the seller did not cooperate, did not recall the product, and did not provide remedies to consumers, and the subsequent platform will close the seller's Amazon store.
In addition, sellers should also choose a legal, compliant, safe and reliable third-party platform to settle store proceeds to a domestic bank card, such as windpayer (handling fee 0.).3% cap), Amazon official (handling fee 0.9%), Payonee (fee 12%), etc. Third-party platforms are more convenient and faster to withdraw, and can operate funds more efficiently.
When selecting products on Amazon, sellers should pay attention to avoiding such prohibited products, provide consumers with a safe and reliable shopping place, and strictly abide by the rules of the platform in order to better operate the store in the future.
