No Buy Box

@Michelle_Amazon , @Atlas_Amazon , @Nano_Amazon , @Dougal_Amazon , @Roberto_Amazon @Topher_Amazon

Case ID: 16697087211

Our two items on the case ID are not in buy box even though we are the only ones selling on Amazon. It is competitive in pricing and no one else is selling lower on any other channels or websites.

Also, what is the criteria on "competitive pricing"? Considering no one else can sell it at a much lower price to compete against amazon pricing.

The lack of buy box hurts us on advertising where it cannot show sponsored product ads and cannot show for one click buy either.

Can someone take a look at that case and see what is the reason for not being in the buy box?

Amazon Reps do not have any control over the buy box. The Featured Offer (Buy Box) is not a right or a given. It is like the old Clairol TV add used to say, "Only your hairdresser knows for sure". Now just replace the hairdresser with Amazon. It is run by an Algorithm Bot that giveth and taketh away.

In addition, Amazon uses this as a ploy to entice sellers to use FBA but remember this. There can only be one Featured Offer for each unique product. Sellers seem to enjoy it when they have it, and then complain when they do not. But remember, when a seller is disappointed with the loss of the featured offer, they seem to forget, another seller is happy with that loss, because it is their gain.

If you are the only seller, the buyer still has to purchase from you.
