Wow, what a shakedown - DD7
by Seller_SMAWOyGuJ1xbb
Amazon replied

Been selling on here since the beginning so they have all the data they need to know that I do not have a lot of refunds and ZERO chargebacks. Can't remember when I ever had a customer escalate against me.

Numbers:

Sales: $122K+

Refunds: $2K+

Expenses: 34k

EVERYTHING ELSE >> RESERVE

Just a money grab for the huge interest amazon will make on our money.

I wanna know who's making money
by Seller_lqdJfjMSsrBEQ

Lately Amazon feels more like a slot machine than a marketplace. I’ve tried just about everything and still haven’t turned a profit. Sometimes it feels like the system is designed for sellers to lose. Curious if anyone else feels the same.

Ad PPC Payment Change-April 15 - No warning
by Seller_hG1fessb804tZ
Amazon replied

I'm not sure this small business will survive this if implemented across the board....

And, this message is so disingenuous...there is no "manual payment" when a credit card is required for PPC, and there is no "better cash flow" when there is no ability to have "float"... basically there won't be cash flow... As for "uninterrupted service"... what does this even mean?

And the irony is the "pro small business" ads now running on tv...

Has Amazon ever thought about doing something positive for sellers? Yes, that is my question.

I'm new here. I was exploring the forum to find out how to do things properly based on your valuable experiences. But all I read is a system that has a lot of flaws, endless problems, and barely a break-even. Is it worth doing business on Amazon now, or has it become unfavorable? And what are the must-have SaaS applications that most sellers use?
