# Amazon Blank Offers

> Understanding and resolving Amazon's anti-bot blank offers page issue

Amazon will occasionally return an empty page instead of a list of product offers. This appears to be an anti-bot response by Amazon, caused by the IP addresses used to place orders.

This appears to primarily affect the UK, DE, and IN regions. US, CA, and FR currently appear unaffected.

When this happens, our ordering agent will respond with the error `amazon_antibot_blank_offers_page`.

This is done because we cannot guarantee full ordering safeguards without accessing this offers page.

## Workarounds

There are two workarounds that can be attempted:

### 1. Use `take_buybox_offers`

Set `take_buybox_offers` to `true` on the top level of the ordering object. This will automatically accept the first offer on the Amazon product page, without applying any `seller_selection_criteria`.

<Info>
  For safety, it is suggested to set `max_price` and `max_delivery_days` as well. Because this accepts the default offer, it will not require loading the broken page.

### 2. Bring Your Own Proxy (BYOP)

Bring your own proxy with BYOP. Ideally, you should use a real residential IP that is dedicated to your ordering flow. For more details, [review the BYOP docs](/v1/api-reference/appendix/proxies).
