The listing was tampered with, and the price was reduced to 1/20 of the original price! Do you dare to buy such a deceptive UPC?

Amazon sellers are probably very familiar with UPC. After all, if you want to do business on Amazon , UPC is essential, and everyone has experienced a lot of pitfalls in the process of buying UPC.

Next, the editor will take you to a comprehensive understanding of UPC and the pitfalls related to UPC.

UPC is actually a 12-digit barcode for commodities developed by the Uniform Code Council (GSI) of the United States. It is mainly used for all common products in the United States and Canada, and later used in international trade.

On the Amazon platform, most products require a product code (EAN, UPC or JAN) before they can be published on Amazon, and the most commonly used one is UPC.

In fact, UPC is not difficult to buy. If you want to buy a regular one, just buy it directly from GSI . But look at the price in the picture below. Do you dare to buy it? Of course, the rich can do whatever they want ~

Seeing this picture, many sellers think the same as the editor: since I can find a lot of cheap UPCs by just searching on the Internet, why should I spend so much money to buy them from GSI?

It is certainly right to think so, but there are too many companies selling UPC on the Internet, and the quality varies. How can you distinguish them? If you are not careful, you may fall into the trap set by the scammers...

I often see many Amazon sellers complaining about the pitfalls they encountered when buying UPCs. Below, I will show you:
