please let me know if y'all are experiencing the same thing or is it just me and my account :( this is only happening to the option with no placement fees.

Same problem here. Hoping it's a glitch.

thanks for reply guys at least it isn't just me. Support was 0 help at all as always. They mentioned that its peak holiday fees but yesterday was not October 15th so it makes 0 sense to me that it tripled 9 days past October 15th... can admins help?

same here. it looks like the $0 placement option (5 or more identical boxes) has the higher shipping rates. perhaps a glitch or perhaps a way of charging placement fees in a roundabout way. I'm sending two batches today... The first was 5 (identical) 20lb boxes of a large number of light items (1380 total units) where the first two options with placement fees had approximately $55-$60 total shipping, the no placement fee option had $195 total shipping. Since the placement fees were so high due to the quantity of items I paid the seemingly overpriced zero placement fee shipping. The second shipment was 8 (identical) 39lb boxes of heavier items (312 total units) where again the shipping cost for the two options with placement fees were a fraction of the zero placement fee option. With this one it was cheaper to pay the placement fees.

If this is on purpose and by design, where was the announcement of the shipping fee changes (I easily could have overlooked it)? If this is a glitch, will we be reimbursed in some way for the overcharges? I'm sure they will not reimburse placement fees that were paid due to the other shipping charges being jacked up...

Hello from Selling Partner Services.

Thank you for reporting these increased UPS rates for FBA partnered carrier shipments.

I reached out to our partner team to request further information. It would be helpful if any sellers experiencing this can file a support case with details including a workflow ID, as that will make it easier to investigate.

In addition, I see some sellers have mentioned that they only see such rates for shipments with $0 inbound placement fee. If any sellers also experience that, it would be helpful.

Amazon is a rubbish company. There is no traffic, advertising fees are deducted vigorously, and vicious competition is allowed. Peers merge variants in violation of regulations every day. Sales increase after merging variants, but Amazon never punishes them.
