If I store products in my home and want to sell on amazon.in

 Yes, you can store products in your home and sell on Amazon. You do not have to use Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA). Instead, you can use two other methods.


1️⃣ Easy Ship (Most common for beginners)

In Easy Ship, you keep products at home and Amazon handles delivery.

How it works

  1. Customer orders on Amazon.

  2. You pack the product at home.

  3. Amazon delivery agent comes to pick up the package.

  4. Amazon delivers it to the customer.

Fees

  • Delivery fee: ₹40–₹120 depending on weight and distance

  • Amazon commission: about 8%–20%

Advantages

✔ No warehouse cost
