Strange order
Hello everyone,
I have an item that I am selling on amazon for £24.84 and so far get a few sales everyday anyways noticed something strange and I am wondering if I am missing something. I noticed that one of the orders instead of charging the customer my price 24.84 charged the customer 20.70? Why is that? My minimum price is set at 23.99 for the item and I would assume that if amazon was the one to provide any sort of voucher for customer they would be the one to pay it since I do not offer this price?
I noticed it when I went to view transactions for the period and amazon charges me around £6.59 and they sold my item from my inventory for 4£ cheaper and still charged me around £6.07 FBA fees.
Anybody know how this could happen without my acknowledgement maybe I missed something in seller university but please enlighten me.
Thank you all

You can’t remove Jersey/Guernsey from your shipping plan, because it is part of the UK.
You can however increase the shipping cost to those locations, in the same way that you can to NI and so on.
But if you are VAT registered, it should actually make no difference profit wise.
They are just removing the VAT portion of the sale as they are exempt when going there.
Unfortunately however, if you are not VAT registered, then the system simply doesn’t cope with it and takes 20% off the top anyway.

Is it by any chance a sale to jersey?

That does look like VAT has been taken off.
So sale to Jersey, or outside the UK.

Ok fair enough, which boxes to uncheck to avoid this and what if some orders are already in payment pending status of these areas, un ticking can cause any issue…

Jersey resident here, it all depends on how the buyer has their address setup. For instance, if they have UK as the country, then it most likely won’t take off VAT even though the rest of the address is Jersey.
As for the VAT coming off (and GST now added), we get to see this on checkout.
