How to contact a seller on Amazon

3. On the “Your Orders” page, find your order in the list and click the yellow “Problem with order” button.

4. On the next screen, under “What went wrong?” select a topic from the list.

5. On the next page, under “What would you like to do?” click “Contact seller.”

6. Choose an option in the “Select Reason” drop-down.

7. Then, type your message in the box that appears and click “Send.”

To contact a seller before you place an order:

2. On the seller’s page, click “Ask a question” in the upper-right corner.

3. You’ll be taken to the Seller Messaging Assistant. In the chat window, select the appropriate options that pertain to your question.
