CB finished May with his best month ever. He shared a very patriotic $17.76k screenshot, which represents an 80% month-over-month increase and 121% year-over-year.
DR turned a forced Amazon listing change on one of his best sellers into a 176% ROI. He had to recall his inventory and find a new listing. The one he found only had one seller on it and it was priced $10 higher.
โป๏ธ SA walked through the right way to handle a switcharoo. He had a $300 item returned with a piece of garbage sent back in its place.
MV caught a 6 a.m. fishing boat and still had enough time to drop a couple hundred lbs of inventory off at UPS. What a life!
J gave a very useful FBA storage capacity explanation. He went into detail on bids per cubic foot and performance credits that can cover the bid cost.
๐ The June book club pick is Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink. J started campaigning for it early in the week.
Monday's sourcing session ripped through 14 leads in 90 minutes.
LE built a self-coordinating team of AI agents. He shared a document this week describing the system: one orchestrator model that delegates to specialist "lanes," enforces evidence standards, and runs a continuous improvement loop.
๐ค RC laid out a full email workflow for Claude: pull the last 50 emails, sort into buckets (retailers, promos, suppliers, newsletters, catch-all), assign a default action to each bucket, and show a table before touching anything.

- FBM shipping cost anomalies with UPS Ground Saver
- Vitacost becoming part of iHerb on June 15
