Amazon implemented restrictions on the best-selling video games and consoles to provide the best shopping experience possible for these products (high rate of fraud?). Games include the great Rock Band, Guitar Hero and Meta Gear Solid 4.

There are also hints that Amazon may soon close off again the Toys category in preparation for the holiday business. Amazon needs enough business history (few months) to determine if you are a worth seller that can provide the best customer experience possible before any foul apples create havoc during Christmas. If you’re not yet on Toys but have been planning to sell on Amazon, I would start right now.
