FBA Sell-Through Update
It looks like the FBA Sell-Through metric has been updated. Now the categories are:
Poor - <1.0
Excellent - 1.0-3.0
Fair - >3.0
This is a pretty drastic change, but it seems to line up with the new requirements for minimum inventory levels (it won't be mathematically impossible to have both an "excellent" sell-through and avoid the low inventory fees)
I haven't seen any posts or updates regarding this, was there an announcement that I missed? I was wondering if there were other upcoming changes that we should be aware of.

not sure it really matters, as we don't use that business model.
We sell150-200 products a day with no advertising, no worry about sell-through rates, no 3rd party add-on software programs, no need for fancy charts and graphs and no need for any software company to sell us about keywords or what's hot to sell next month and no need for FBA.
We have no need for competitive pricing, as we sell within the 3 lowest offerings only differing by pennies. And yes, we can and do sell less than Amazon's offering price on the same item. If we can't find products that buyers want or need that fit into our business model, we will not even buy them at the wholesale level to sell.

Hi @Seller_M5ttzklmZrgD6,
I appreciate you reaching out about this metric!
I have not seen updates or threads about this just yet, but I will ask the internal team to see if I can get any additional information on this!
Thanks so much,
