Hey @ajassy Oil is CHEAPER than it was 5 years ago so tell me how your 3.5% fee makes sense? Did you reduce FBA fees by 3.5% when prices dropped? lol. There is a real problem if you nickel and dime us and still can't increase shareholder value - this is a negative flywheel.

[Artu Espinoza @carl_es]

@michaelpatron0 @ajassy Thanks for pointing this, this needs to be addressed.

[Michael Patrón @michaelpatron0]

Oil now under 71. Is @ajassy going to remove this fee?

My community has $15b of yearly sales on Amazon with 800+ members.

These are small businesses. They employ real Americans and support local communities.

They do not have large margins to absorb shocks.

Every year Amazon squeezes them more and supports overseas Chinese sellers instead of local American businesses.

Now Amazon is hitting sellers with even more of a squeeze all back to back:

https://t.co/Xc1IeD5QHd has moved many sellers to DD+7
Meaning funds are held until 7 days after delivery, not simply paid out on the old cadence.
https://t.co/YkUKQvr0Uo just added a 3.5% fuel/logistics surcharge on fulfillment fees.
https://t.co/L9WWJUDkr8 top it off now Amazon Ads charges will be pulled directly from disbursements rather than floating on a credit card.

That combination matters.

Amazon already forces sellers into an environment where ads dominate visibility.
So now the same platform that pressures brands to spend more on ads is also tightening payout timing and pulling more cash out before sellers ever see it.

For a very large business, this is just a minor annoyance. But for a small business making payroll just got 50x harder.

Less cash on hand means:
less inventory
more stockouts
more debt
more strain on small teams
and ultimately a worse customer experience

This is not “supporting small business.”
It is starving the brands that create so much of the value customers come to Amazon for.

If you’re covering Amazon, local communities hit by a hard economy and large companies trying to squeeze hardworking Americans hit me up.

Yo @amznsellerhelp @ajassy @dharmeshmehta Can we get some sort of statement about these new fees? You guys hit us with 3 huge cost increases in a month and the PPC credit card thing is nuts. Here is the issue:

Issue 1: Temporarily raising FBA fees 3.5%.
Last time you guys...

@danojbt Estoy de acuerdo pero un lugar de estar esperanzados a los periodistas me parece buena idea incitar a que cada individuo desarrolle su pensamiento crítico y capacidad de análisis antes de andar compartiendo lo primero que ven, y peor aún sin verificar con mas de una fuente.
