Amazon Robbing Us (Changing all of my categories automatically and increasing fees)

imgimg

Amazon sent me an email that it is changing all of my fees to a new category, which happens to be a higher referral fee. How is this even fair? All of my ASINs are industrial scientific they have nothing to do with home improvement. Who decided this? Is there anyway this can get changed? This is ridiculous. Wow amazon is probably the greediest company on Earth it is disgusting.

Does anyone have advice on how to handle this? Anyone besides seller support.

It's happening to all of us. I sell auto decals that have specific phrases that relate to cars, trucks and horse trailers. They moved my entire catalog to Home and Kitchen, which raised my fees by 20%. Selling on Amazon just went up about $5,000 a year for me. It only makes sense for Amazon so they can make more money off of small sellers. It has nothing to do with what products you sell and what category they should be in. Frankly, I don't know why Amazon bothers having different pricing categories at all. Just charge whatever. It's not like we can plan on what we will be charged at any time.

Our solution is to raise our prices. No other choice.

Horrible, some of our fees are going to jump 100% or in other words they will double. They are being moved to categories that they have nothing to do with.

Yet another move toward downfall caused by haphazard AI implementation.

Not if every single seller raises their prices.

I agree, but that means less sales. So it is a loss for us sadly
