Sudden Drop in Profit — Can Anyone Help Me Understand This?

Hi everyone,I'm reaching out because I noticed a huge drop in profits over a recent two-week period, even though my sales volume was normal. I usually have a good sense of what to expect after Amazon fees, product costs, and ads, but this payout was far lower than usual.I contacted support and was sent to the Advertising team, but they said it's not under their scope and sent me back to Seller Support. I still haven’t gotten a clear answer or breakdown of what happened.Has anyone else experienced something like this — where sales looked fine, but the profit deposited was way lower than expected? Could it be hidden fees, returns, or something in the backend I’m missing?Any tips on what report to check or who to contact directly would be really appreciated. I just want someone to take ownership and help figure this out.Thanks in advance!

"Profit" is no Amazon term. You mean the payout was way lower, isn't it? So, is your "Reserve Amount" higher? Do you even check the numbers under "Ppayment": "Statement View", "Transaction View"? There you see your sales. If THAT is OK, don't worry. Sometimes Amazon keeps a higher reserve.

My deferred payments have been way higher these past few weeks... my eyes will bulge out at $1,000 in my account and then I go to withdraw it and it's like $123 bucks available to me LOL.

CR here. You've already received a lot of great responses above from fellow sellers here in the community but wanted to pop in to see if you had additional questions or specific concerns on your disbursements that Seller Support did not answer for you.

Happy to peek at your case #'s you have opened with Seller Support should you still have unanswered questions you asked them.

I'll hang here should you have additional questions.
