FBA prep center
for South Carolina sellers

Think14 is an owned US FBA prep center serving South Carolina ecommerce sellers. Amazon stopped prepping US inventory in January 2026, so South Carolina sellers need a dedicated prep partner. Ship to our owned Texas facility and we label, prep and forward to FBA at $0.75/unit.

Why South Carolina sellers ship to us

A central US floor, 2 days from your FBA centers

South Carolina, with fast-growing ports around Charleston, sits in the Southeast FBA network our Texas floor reaches in about 2 ground days.

We own the building, so when we say 48 hours, there is no third-party 3PL to blame. One team, one SLA, $2M insured.

“Amazon won't prep your products anymore. We will, from one Texas floor.”

The prep spec

Amazon prep service tasks we run for South Carolina inventory

Every unit follows the current FBA prep matrix, so your inbound shipments clear receiving without warnings.

FNSKU labeling and polybagging

Barcode over the manufacturer code on every unit, polybags with suffocation warnings where Amazon requires them, bubble wrap for fragiles. Standard materials are inside the $0.75 rate.

Case pack and carton inbound

Case-pack shipments where your SKUs qualify, optimized carton configurations, and 2D barcodes, built to cut placement fees on every inbound shipment plan.

Kitting, bundles and multipacks

Bundle creation with sold-as-set labels, multipack kitting, and insert placement within Amazon terms, so your South Carolina catalog can carry offers competitors cannot copy.

Prep and forward on a 48-hour turnaround

Dock to FBA-ready shipment inside 48 hours, then forwarding to the fulfillment center Amazon assigns, with tracking visible in your portal.

Prep for South Carolina sellers

FBA prep for South Carolina sellers

South Carolina sellers importing through Charleston have an advantage worth using: containers can clear the port and route straight into prep without an extra warehousing step in between.

We coordinate with your forwarder, receive the freight, count and photograph on intake, then prep to FNSKU standard and forward into FBA. Where it makes sense we can also be your forwarder on the India to USA lane, which removes a handoff.

Charleston imports

Containers landing at Charleston routed into prep without a second warehouse leg.

Counted and photographed

Intake evidence on every carton, so shortage and damage claims are documented.

Forwarding available

We can run the India to USA freight leg as well as the prep, under one accountable team.

Sales tax in South Carolina

What South Carolina sellers actually need to know about tax

Amazon and Walmart collect and remit sales tax on marketplace orders delivered to South Carolina under marketplace facilitator rules, so the tax on those orders is not yours to calculate. That does not make you invisible to the state: orders from your own Shopify store, wholesale, and economic nexus thresholds are still yours to track.

Where your inventory physically sits matters too. Stock held in a state can create nexus there, which is one practical argument for one known warehouse rather than inventory spread across a network you cannot see into.

Common questions

South Carolina FBA prep questions

Do you have order minimums for South Carolina sellers?+

No. One carton or a full container, the same 48-hour prep SLA and $0.75/unit pricing apply.

How long does inventory take to reach FBA from your warehouse?+

About 2 days by ground from our Texas facility to most Amazon fulfillment centers serving South Carolina.

Can you receive shipments directly from my supplier or freight forwarder?+

Yes. We coordinate with your forwarder, or act as your forwarder, and receive, count and inspect every carton.

What happens to my South Carolina returns?+

Returns are inspected within 72 hours and 60-70% are regraded and resold, so your write-offs become recovered revenue.
