Tom Wang clobbers me with ads harder than a Scottie Scheffler drive on a long par 5.
He’s been hawking his FBA Masterclass program for years now.
It apparently costs anywhere from $7,000 to $13,000, depending on the package.
With 7,400 students, that’s at least $52 million for Team Tom.
Jeez, no wonder the guy seems to travel and sip wine for a living.
Are we really supposed to believe we can buy wall-mounted toothpaste dispensers off Alibaba for cheap, sell them on Amazon for $19.99, and live like Tom?
I’m gonna give his bum a good sniff in this FBA Masterclass review, just to make sure everything checks out.
At first glance, the course seems solid.
- They’ve got 4.5 stars on Trustpilot.
- An A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.
- And MasterFBA.com is absolutely spammed with supposed student wins.
But then you read some of the complaints on Reddit and start to have doubts.
It’s like when you try to fill your cup with Dr. Pepper at the soda fountain, but it comes out clear. Like, did you accidentally hit Sprite? Or water?
Nope, they must just be out.
Great, now what’re you supposed to wash your Double Frisco Burger Combo down with? Mug Root Beer?
It’s reviews like this one from Patricia that throw you off.
She recommends not wasting your money, saying there’s zero substance to the program. The training is old and slopped together, like scraps of food dumped into a pig trough, swarming with flies under the scorching sun.
Oh, but she wasn’t done.
She vented about the lack of assistance and the many scheduled calls and in-person events that were canceled last minute.
And how the “coaches” only reminisce about their glory days, back when they used to be top Amazon sellers.
“It’s weird that no one with this company is still active with Amazon any longer,” Patricia pointed out.
She advised doing your due diligence and exercising caution before even thinking of moving forward with FBA Masterclass.
Damn. Patricia done sent Tom to the burn ward.
Another student was pressured to pay $13k for the “mentoring tier” on their first sales call.
After shelling out an additional $3k to launch their product, they were pelted with one unexpected expense after another, none of which were disclosed during Tom’s pitch.
And you’d think, for that kinda money… it’d be Tom mentoring you, right?
Try again.
It was just some random person who was more of a motivational speaker than an actual Amazon FBA expert.
Needless to say, this student wasn’t feeling it.
Then their daughter developed a medical condition, time was tight, and bills were piling up, so they asked for a refund twice by email.
Both times they got rejected harder than an alcoholic dad with a bowl of oatmeal for a body trying to get fresh with his wife, who sweats bronzer and flaunts skin smoother than an unboxed Barbie. Clearly, she thinks she’s too good for him.
But enough about Bennifer.
My point is this:
Don’t let the fluffy, 5-star “Tom Wang and his team truly care about your success” reviews lull you into joining FBA Masterclass.
The model’s fine, I s’pose. Amazon FBA is whatever.
I mean, it costs as much as a new Kia Forte and takes roughly one rehab stint just to go live, so it doesn’t appeal to me, but I get why people do it.
However, if you ask me?
Tom’s gotten greedy and now lives too high off the hog for FBA Masterclass to be worth it at this point.
It’s not a scam per se, but you’re better off paying a fraction of that to someone still in the trenches, who’ll hold your hand and support you themselves.
Agree? Of course you do.

Q&A
Q: Tom Wang net worth?
A: Based on what I said earlier, it’s gotta be in the tens of millions. But we shouldn’t compare ourselves to Tom. We’re just big animals meant to bust open shells and start fires. We can’t be expected to pass Organic Chem, keep up with all 600 Kardashians, and be as rich as every guru spamming our newsfeed.
Q: Did Tom ever make money actually doing Amazon FBA?
A: Legend has it, he and his wife had a legit brand called Sdara Skincare, which they exited for seven figures. But that was many moons ago, back when the competition was a fraction of what it is today. Ever since, Tom’s been busy selling the dream.
Q: What is the success rate of FBA?
A: It’s tough to nail down, but estimates suggest maybe 10-20% of sellers achieve significant, sustainable profits. The other 80-90% get stuck with saturation, itty-bitty margins, and rising costs, leaving nothing but shame and shrapnel in their wallets.
Q: So is Amazon FBA still worth it?
A: For me? Nah, it never was. Why wrestle with Amazon when I can drop $10 on a domain, have ChatGPT whip up some content, rank it on Google, and watch the cash roll in on repeat like a bad habit I can’t quit?
Q: Are you saying I should do SEO instead?
A: Either that, or become a sexual plaything for an eccentric millionaire and live in their guesthouse. Here’s a video on local SEO just in case.
