US FBA and referral fee changes — coming in February 2020

This year we invested more than $15 billion in infrastructure, programs, people, and 150 new tools and services to help our sellers grow their brands and businesses. We also invested billions of dollars to expand FREE One-Day Delivery to more than 10 million Prime-eligible items. We are thrilled with the response of our mutual customers. Thank you for your continued innovation in providing unique selection and low prices for customers.

Driven by FREE One-Day Delivery, this was the largest one-year investment we have ever made in FBA. Nevertheless, in 2020, we will make only moderate increases (about 3%) in fulfillment fees, below industry average, because we remain committed to your continued success. We will also decrease select referral fees and introduce an exciting new selection program.

Please review the fee change pages below. The changes will take effect February 18, 2020, except where noted.

2020 US referral fee changes
2020 US fulfillment fee changes
2020 FBA fee changes for monthly storage, Label Service and removal orders
2020 Small and Light fee changes

I just read this in my email.

My first thought about it was…

  1. Doesn’t surprise me - eBay did the same thing years back. So much so, they were considered “feebay”, not “eBay”. And guess what that resulted in? Many US sellers left!

My second thought about it was…

  1. Great another victory for the Chinese sellers! Now US sellers have to raise prices to consumers, to offset the fee increase, while the Chinese just keep their prices low and absorb the increase in fees, because they easliy can.

Yep, why not take some more from all of us, why not take away everything we have? Oh wait, you actually do that!

And what do we get in return??? Lost merchandise, Damaged Returned Goods by Amazon’s spoiled customers. Wrongful account suspensions, horrible Seller Support Dis-service.

Thank you very much!!!

Have had this issue since October last year on 4 ASINS yet you raise FBA fees and will not fix this issue yet you still charge me for fees and refuse to correct my issue for months.

Hello from Amazon Selling Partner Support,

I understand that you are unable to create removal order.

In response to higher than expected volumes of customer returns and unsellable inventory, several of our fulfillment centers are storing returns and unsellable units in temporary, on-site locations. The inventory will be stored in these locations until the fulfillment centers have enough capacity in their main buildings. As space becomes available, inventory stored in these locations will be moved into the main buildings on a first-in, first-out basis.

While your inventory is stored in a temporary location:

  • Your items will not be disposed of (until they are moved into the main fulfillment center).
  • You will not be able to remove items through Seller Central.
  • You might be charged storage fees for these units.
  • You might receive emails instructing you to remove unsellable units before they are disposed of.

Since inventory is being moved into the fulfilment centers as space becomes available, please check Seller Central regularly to see when your items become available for removal.

To help us continually improve, we ask that you take a moment to complete our survey below to tell us about your experience with this specific interaction.

Were you satisfied with the support provided?
