However you sell on Amazon, we run the fulfillment behind it.

FBA prep, FBM (Fulfilled by Merchant), Seller Fulfilled Prime for Amazon’s extra-large tier, and Vendor Central, run in the same operation that ships the rest of your orders.

The four programs at a glance

FBA prep FBM Seller Fulfilled Prime Vendor Central
Who stores it Amazon, after we prep and forward it Red Stag Red Stag Amazon buys it wholesale
Who ships to the buyer Amazon Red Stag Red Stag Amazon
Prime badge Yes, through FBA No Yes, on your own listings, for any product Amazon rates extra-large Yes, Amazon retails it
Best when You want Amazon’s network without running prep in-house You want control over inventory, packaging, and shipping cost Any one is enough: 50 lbs or more, a longest side of 96 inches or more, 130 inches or more in length plus girth, or a television 40 inches or more. Plus you want Prime conversion while keeping inventory on your side. Amazon buys from you wholesale
The catch Fees climb on bigger, heavier items No Prime badge Your product has to be extra-large by any one of Amazon’s four measurements, and Amazon’s delivery-speed bar still applies Chargebacks when a PO misses spec

FBA prep

Amazon stores your inventory and ships your orders. Our job is everything before that.

A good fit when you want Amazon’s storage, delivery network, and Prime reach, without building an in-house prep operation to feed it.

WHAT WE HANDLE

Receiving and inspection when your inventory lands, including container unloading

Prep to Amazon’s spec: polybagging, bubble wrap, and unit-level requirements

FNSKU and carton labeling, plus box content information

Shipment plan creation and routing to the fulfillment centers Amazon assigns

Storage for the inventory you have not sent in yet, so you can feed FBA on your schedule

FBM

You make the sale on Amazon. We pick, pack, and ship the order straight to your buyer.

A good fit when you want control over inventory, packaging, and shipping cost, or for the parts of your catalog where FBA’s fees or size limits don’t make sense.

WHAT WE HANDLE

Direct integration with Seller Central, so orders flow in without manual entry

Pick, pack, and same-day shipping on orders placed by cutoff

Tracking pushed back to Amazon automatically, keeping your metrics clean

Returns processing when a buyer sends something back

Seller Fulfilled Prime

A good fit when Amazon rates your products extra-large and you want the Prime badge conversion boost while keeping inventory, packaging, and cost control on your side.

Common questions

Does Red Stag Fulfillment do FBA prep?

Yes. Red Stag Fulfillment is an FBA prep center. We receive and inspect your inventory, prep it to Amazon’s spec (polybagging, bubble wrap, FNSKU and carton labeling), and forward it to the fulfillment centers Amazon assigns, with storage for whatever you have not sent in yet.

Can a 3PL handle Seller Fulfilled Prime’s delivery requirements?

On Amazon’s extra-large tier, yes, by ground. We run SFP on everything Amazon rates extra-large, which is any product hitting any one of four measurements: 50 lbs or more, a longest side of 96 inches or more, 130 inches or more in length plus girth, or a television 40 inches or more. Amazon sets no one-day delivery requirement on that tier and scores each size tier on its own, so we ship those orders from Sweetwater, TN and Salt Lake City, UT, which together reach 96% of the U.S. in 2 days by ground, without paying for air. If your products sit below that tier, tell us what you ship anyway and you will get a straight answer: a custom quote if we are a fit, a referral to a better-matched 3PL if we are not.

What does FBA prep cost?

It depends on what you ship. Volume, unit size, and prep requirements move the number, so we quote each operation instead of publishing a rate card. Tell us what you ship and you’ll get a straight answer: a custom quote if we’re a fit, a referral to a better-matched 3PL if we’re not.

Can Red Stag handle Amazon and my own website?

Yes. Your Amazon programs ship from the same operation as your D2C and retail orders, tracked in one dashboard. Channels can keep inventory separated when you want a priority channel protected.
