Is anyone else noticing that there has been a BIG BIG CHANGE in the buy box eligibility for FBM sellers vs FBA?
I used to have to price my products maybe 3% to get the buy box. Now it is 10%. What is the world is wrong with you Amazon?

It appears Amazon wants to push sellers to FBA, where they can make more money from all the fees.
But we're not really experiencing what you are. We compete with Amazon on many PDPs, are strictly FBM and win the Featured Offer quite often over Amazon and FBA offers, even when our price is higher. Not always of course, but quite often.

Yes, enormous change. FBA and Prime sellers are given priority for the BB in virtually every case, but even if there are no other sellers on a particular listing we are not often getting the BB. This is new. Before the change, if we were the only seller (or even if we had a significantly lower price) we would be given the BB automatically. It's a bit depressing. Thanks, Amazon!

Yes it is blatantly noticeable. Amazon is trying to force people to FBA.
