Too much Amazon Fee
HI,
I have been excessively charged for different Amazon fee, my sales are already very low and sometimes no sales and I am being too much charged for nothing. I have checked in 3 inventories so far and could not earn back a single inventory amount yet. All my income is going in different Amazon charges most of all upon contacting Amazon regarding such activities I got no help from Amazon.

promo rebate is just where a non prime customer has paid amazon extra to deliver the product faster. It goes in and out of your account as its amazon that takes this money so they can deliver quicker

Well to be honest there are no ‘sure things’. Amazon are clear upfront what the fees for selling products are going to be.
If you aren’t selling enough products, downgrade from professional to individual subscription plan.
If you don’t make enough money per sale to cover your costs and Amazon fees, sell for a higher price or sell something more profitable.

Just out of curiosity, why start selling here rather than Canada? Most people would be selling on their home marketplaces first if they can?

Hi @Hariskk,
Sorry to hear that the sales are not as expected.
As suggested by @PeterB if you can consider to change to individual seller.
I`m sharing here a link with all the steps that you need to take if you consider this option.
Here is another link with suggestion on how to increase sales.
Regards.

FBA and Referral fee never been an issue for me, on my first post I was having advertising cost issue where I have mentioned the details, and now the problem is Amazon Fee, which as per the seller support includes storage fee I have asked them to send me the breakdown and on what basis they are charging this fee, major concern is this they are adding some fee in Amazon everyday which is a big concern for me. As I mentioned that on 19 Dec Amazon fee was GBP 78.28 and on Dec 20th its was GBP 98.41 how come this fee is changing everyday. But I have generated the report summary as per your guided method and waiting for it to be available let me check what it is.
Thanks for your support

you aren’t charged storage fees everyday - you are however charged referral and fba fees on every sale
the screenshot from your other thread shows that these fees are roughly 50% of your sales total for each day which maybe about right for a S&L sale
did you read my post and check the individual transaction view in your payments section ?

Yes you are right, the mystery is solved now with your detailed help, this fee is actually FBA and Referral Fee. I have followed the instructions that you have given and I checked this is accurate. But there is a little confusion here if you see in the attached screenshot, the FBA fee is also separately mentioned other then Amazon Fee. Can you please tell me what is it? I have highlighted it with arrow.

the 64p ?
possibly a return fee etc ?!
Seller_7VbclcPFFRTnc
in that case, as you are loosing money already, you need to relook at your selling price
Seller_vcjuOF2qdwmx8
yes but its showing as FBA Fee here. and if you see there is a rebate/promo charges also and let me tell you that I am not running any promo or deals at the moment.

Seller_vcjuOF2qdwmx8
and why Amazon and FBA Fee is mentioned separately?
Seller_7VbclcPFFRTnc
amazon fee will be referral and FBA fulfilment fees
that separate FBA fee - 64p will be something else FBA related - returns fee etc
Seller_vcjuOF2qdwmx8
But really appreciate your guidance and help.
