I’m baffled by the idea that anyone would sell anything without product liability insurance. Even at a shitty hardware startup sending out our first dev kits we made sure to have that. Maybe it’s different if you’re a fly by night drop shipped but still insane to me.

From some googling, it seems Amazon does require this of all sellers but didn’t require proof. I imagine we’ll see increased enforcement now.

Just for some insight my product was a consumable product (considered candy/confectionary) and packaged in glass. I think the insurance premium came out to $700/year (I forget the exact coverage but I'm sure it was a $1M to $2M policy).
