Amazon Commision Charges?
Hi,
I am selling a product of £12 and for every sale Amazon charge me Amazon Commission Fee of £1.2, eventhough I have Professional Account. When I signed up for Professional Account I read that Amazon will not charge commision for every sale but only charge me Professional Account Fee charge which is around £30. Can you please tell if I can do anything so that Amazon must not cut Commission Charge.

no they don’t charge you a per item sale fee of 75p if you pay the £30 a month.
The percentage based referral fee(which varies by category) is still charged.

Basically you use the professional plan if your selling more than30 items per month. If less than that amount your better using the basic plan and paying the 75p + vat n eac sale you make.
The commision bit your talking baout is the referal fee ie waht amazon charge for direcing a customer to you which can be anything upto 20% i your inventory there should be a column that says app fees and you should use this when calculating what to charge for your item.

As said, this is known as the referral fee, which is on every sale, and varies dependent on the category.
Also, if your sales are less than approx. 33/34 per month, you are better being on the individual plan rather than professional, unless you want the added advantages of the pro. plan. The per item fee is 90p (75p +VAT) so if low volume sales you will be out of pocket paying the monthly pro.plan fee.
