[USA Today] Some Amazon sellers are pulling out of Prime Day amid Trump tariffs

The deadline for electing to participate in Prime Day is May 23, according to one seller consultant. A pullback by third-party merchants could mean fewer fees and less ad revenue for Amazon, as well as a more limited selection of discounted items. In prior years the event has generated significant sales and new Prime memberships.

The original headline and link include "T** tariffs".

Amazon Sellers Reportedly Skipping Prime Day Due to Tariffs

Once again, whether there is any noticeable issue will depend on who pulls out. The identical physical item is often sold by a large number of sellers and most do not sell out. Amazon’s numbers do not require as many sellers as they have. Not every day and even not on Prime Day.
