New info on one of the scariest things I’ve run into on Amazon.
I knew about the new Fair Pricing Policy, took it seriously and thought I was in compliance.
Your offers on the ASIN(s) below have been removed due to violation(s) of the Amazon Marketplace Fair Pricing Policy (https://sellercentral.amazon.com/gp/help/G5TUVJKZHUVMN77V). The per unit price on multipack ASINs must be equal to or lower than the price of a single unit of the same product.
Within the next 24 hours, please review your other listings in the Inventory section of Seller Central to make sure that they follow our policies (https://sellercentral.amazon.com/myi/search/OpenListingsSummary).
If this problem continues, we may not allow you to sell on Amazon.com.
ASINs: B002ULXXXX
To reinstate your ASINs:
- In the Inventory section of Seller Central, select Manage Inventory.
- Search for the ASIN you would like to reinstate, or select Fix Stranded Inventory.
- Edit the inactive ASIN by updating the current multipack price.
- Save and finish.

Violation: an inactive (zero on-hand) 2-pack with no corresponding single pack
Funny business:
Asin in violation: B002ULXXXX
Since I don’t sell a single unit under any ASIN, I truly don’t know how they are determining “per unit pricing”.
Scary parts:
Anyone else have more experience with this?

That’s nuts! (I get my pun badge for that)
I have not seen or heard of anything like that. I have had listings disabled when a Chinese scam seller came along and priced $70 items at $6.99. I have never heard of them comparing prices from similar listings and then slapping a seller with a policy violation. That’s insane.
This is crazy.
I see Amazon Pantry was selling 16 ounce jar for 3.00, can’t imagine having to price better than Amazon on any given product, especially when they have little regard to profit on so many items
I thought price fixing was a violation of federal law. If they were comparing your single units to your multi packs, then I would understand, but they cannot tell you that you have to be the same or cheaper than someone else, or Amazon itself. If so, Autobots would have everything at a penny
There was another thread a few days ago on this same thing. Admittedly since I don’t sell anything in a multi pack I was just skimming through but it seemed the problem was that Amazon was comparing the single item price of all sellers to the OP’s multi pack price.
If that’s the case then with auto pricing it would be almost impossible to keep the multi pack price complaint since there’s no way to tie it to the single unit.
Anyone else have more experience with this?
NOPE ... cause I have no idea what you are talking about....
I received this similar email today. This is for a single hair product. I lowered the price to $34.97 and somehow triggered this. The offers range from $19 - $75.
“We have detected pricing errors in your Amazon.com product listings. We have deactivated the listings at the bottom of this message to prevent a negative customer experience.
Go to the Manage Inventory page in Seller Central to see any deactivated listings. These will have the status Inactive (Pricing Error).
To reactivate your listings, please complete the following steps:
– On the Manage Inventory page, click Price Alerts.
– Update your offer price.
– Set a minimum and maximum price in the specified columns. Your current offer price should be within that range.”
This may help to get some answers. Call ss and instantly tell them you want the captive team, SS is suppose to transfer you immediately or they are in policy violation. Anyway I have found no other way to get the right answer I have called them. As they told me that was their job to help sellers. One time they told me exactly what was wrong and how to fix it. Worth a try.

The puzzling thing is this notice is for the same ASIN that had quantity zero’d and made inactive on 3/19, out on vacation on 3/27, blocked (removed) for fair pricing on 3/28 and still triggers a (second) performance notification on 3/29.
I have now “closed” all listings for the duration of my vacation. The only step that I know beyond this would be to delete all listings and having zero footprint on Amazon.
I have been preparing for the day I receive my own personal Amazon nightmare like this by developing my own online store and e-mail list and now my sales dwarf Amazon monthly. I just know someday Amazon will give me a no win situation, and I better be prepared.
