When are amazon going to stop breaching competiton laws, particularly in relation to price fixing, ie closing listing for ‘pricing errors’ and removing the buy box if amazon deems the price is too high?

Ten years back there was a thriving forum community.
Amazon throttled it.
So maybe step back and let us get on with it.

@Jessica
It would be really good to know if you are able to act upon / forward / raise any of the issues and suggestions that have been mentioned here, and that we are not just creating a long list of seemingly unsurmountable problems that sellers face.
As has been pointed out by several folks, many of the issues we face are changes needed to be made by Amazon, not tips for sellers.

I don’t know if this has been mentioned before but here it goes
Customers don’t return the full item & get a full refund.
This needs to be changed

Surely you want to know what topics we want to chat about!!
They come up time after time on this forum. The problem is that nobody at amazon seems to want to do anything about the problems that sellers have.
The seller polls that come up every few days are clearly in response to the latest problems that sellers have encountered-- so somebody at Amzon knows what our problems are. What you are asking seems to be duplicating what you should already know.
Instead of asking us what we want to chat about how about actually trying to do something about what you already know

I have not read all the posts but I have read a good few - and you know I am unable to find ones which actually address the original question/post.
The original post was asking to share tips for Sellers - but it quickly descended into bashing Amazon and asking for changes which to be honest are very worthy and we all want but not actually a tip for a seller.
Now here is a tip for a seller - get support from a very good mental health professional if you intend selling on Amazon, as Amazon offer very little support and will change goalposts and policies and make you worry about their metric scores to the point where it will drive you to distraction. Thats the best tip I can offer

Here is a further suggestion to go along with the many others that other sellers have brought up.
How about investing in your faulty AI bots I spend all of my Amazon time now trying to fix items being suppressed removed or blocked from being listed it is now over 18 months since I was able to list a product from scratch despite getting new goods in on a weekly basis if it is not already in the catalogue I no longer even try to list.
3 examples of recently removed goods Nottingham Forest Fc metal street sign removed due to pesticide violation
Manchester City Gymbag and a Liverpool backpack removed Food violations every day my inventory gets smaller due to the out of control AI bots. Over 85% of my inventory is either suppressed removed or blocked from being listed.
My main suggestions is that sellers do not want to chat about what I say in this post or the other posts above they want you @Jessica or any other rep from Amazon to start taking actions about the problems being reported to you in this thread so that we as sellers can start to function as sellers.

Hi all,
I want to thank everyone that has contributed to this thread. The time you have taken to voice your views and opinions is very appreciated.
There have been many posts regarding various aspects of selling on Amazon. Some of you know that I have been supporting the forums for some time (almost 10 years to save you time checking!). The Forums and Amazon have been through many changes and updates over the years, and I am committed to sharing your feedback to help continue to make Amazon the best place for you to sell.
The purpose of the thread was to gather information so that we could do two things. 1) Ensure topics posted in Quick Tips are addressing questions that you are answering on a regular basis so that you can direct other sellers to the posts, and, 2) try and share lesser known tips and information that can help you as a seller on Amazon overall.
This thread will now be closed but you can contact me directly with any comments you have.
Have a lovely evening,
Jessica
