What’s the single greatest thing Amazon could do to help sellers right now :thinking: I’m curious: what do SAS members think Amazon could do, right now, to help all 3Ps? (My vote would be either reducing referral fees or offering Amazon-funded coupons/sales.)

I wonder if Amazon’s liberal return policy is what keeps them from being under more scrutiny by both the government and consumer confidence. Imagine the consumer angst at getting duped by a foreign company with old school or small business return policies where you had to jump through hoops to retu…

It’s pretty much this. The scammers who enter in fake tracking numbers or never ship items either just string people along for long enough so that they get paid by Amazon, then stick Amazon with the bill for the refunds, or they sell cheap items, because a lot of people will forget about it and nev…

[image] On another topic It’s fairly easy for Amazon to avoid any liability here. That is my biggest frustration: that online marketplaces have been able to skirt any responsibility for the actions of the sellers on their site. Laws do discuss brick and mortar landlord responsibilities but ty…

A mall landlord generally isn’t liable for their B&M store wrongdoings either. It’s just that B&M stores typically don’t blatantly break the law because the police can and will show up if they do. A mall landlord, like amazon, also does not judge whether their retailers’ products are safe, authentic…

What tickles my balls is how we’ve been the top clicked asin for a particular search term for the past 3 months consecutively and yet don’t have the AC badge Compared to the listing with AC badge - so we outsell, outrank and sell at a higher Price (making amazon more money) - and yet amazon refuses…

Ok just checked organic rank - and I guess we’re second and they’re fist organically But still if we are the top clicked brand for that low SFR kw for 3 months - what gives!

How much inventory is at FBA? That’s 100% the key to all of it. We now have to maintain 20K units at FBA of a listing that sells ~5000 units a month or we lose it. It’s insane and the loss happens like clockwork when inventory drops below that level. Those 20K units MUST be in a prime eligible b…

So basically they want the item to be same-day/next-day eligible to get the badge. Guess that kinda makes some sense.
