Shipping Adjustments - 1 lb is still 16 oz correct?
I'm always diligent to select the correct dimensions and weight of my shipments. I understand that I will occasionally make a mistake, or even that the carrier from time to time make a mistake. But the shipping adjustments I'm seeing lately are just out of control.
My most recent complaint is where i have several orders that are charged about double of the regular rate. When I asked Seller Support to investigate they tell me that you input shipping size 14x9x5 and 32 ounces for weight, but the carrier audited dimensions were 14x9x5 and 2 lbs. So you were charged more. I've written to 3 different Seller Support employees who all responded with the same response.
Isn't 16 ounces still 1 pound, or did they change that and nobody told me?

Hi @Seller_T3SyswmWpq9GD,
Sorry to read about this. Can you share the case ID(s) in question with us so we can take a look?

My only advice is anything over 15 oz use #'s and ounces when entering shipping. Their system must have a bug. Hopefully the Mod will help you with the bogus charges.

Seller support is only familiar with the metric system, apparently.

How coincident, a lot of sellers got hit by Adjustment fee on 7/4/2024. I believe that Amazon's AI screwed us again.

This is audited/actual dimensions and weights, not billing weight. 14x9x5/139 round up is 5lbs. The billing weight will be 5lbs.

No, 1lb = 15oz in the shipper world... It has to be UNDER the target weight cutoff. I have a shipping scale that rounds up for me when I get too close to the 1/2lb 🤔

We are having the same issue. We even took the components to the post office to have them weight it. They gave us a printout of the weight showing we were overcharged via adjustment and still having issues getting our money back.

That would be funny if it weren't so typical today...

This is Amazon world, they make their own rules.
Ask the support case agent " do you comprehend" ?
