Hi everyone,
I’m having an issue with the FBA fees on three of my listings that are basically the same product in different sizes: handmade metal ladders for Orisha Ogun, used in spiritual practices. The problem is that the FBA fees for the 21-inch version are extremely high compared to the other two, even though the difference in size is minimal.
Here’s a breakdown:
7-inch ladder (ASIN: B0DSTY9DXP) – Size: 7 x 2 x 2 inches – Price: $9.99 – FBA Fees: $4.41
14-inch ladder (ASIN: B0DSTXPYHK) – Size: 14 x 2 x 2 inches – Price: $12.99 – FBA Fees: $5.63
21-inch ladder (ASIN: B0DSTYHL9F) – Size: 21 x 2 x 2 inches – Price: $18.99 – FBA Fees: $12.46
The fees on the 21-inch version represent over 65% of the selling price, which is killing any margin. All three products are made of the same material, shipped the same way, and only differ in length. I opened a support case on March 18 asking Amazon to check if this is an error in the fee calculation, but I haven’t received any answer yet.
It feels like the 21-inch item might be misclassified in dimensions or weight, and it’s affecting my ability to keep it on FBA.
Has anyone else had a similar issue where FBA fees are way off for one variation?
Would love to hear any tips or if Amazon support is more responsive through this forum.
