Received an email from Amazon today with a spreadsheet attachment. It seems that Amazon feels its not taking enough money from 3P sellers so Amazon is moving 99.5% of SKU's to higher fee categories.

Of course that means if you have a low profit margin (because of Amazon's price fixing of "alleged external competition" or "pricing too low" bots), you just may be paying Amazon all your profits plus extra.

So now, like the nonsense with the default handling times reset automatically to 1-day and the loss of the ability to bulk change it (and even going SKU by SKU only works about 20% of the time), 3P sellers will have to go item by item and see if they can afford to sell their products on Amazon.

As for us, if we find that we are losing money on any item, we will ZERO the available quantity. This way Amazon has to provide the message to potential buyer that "This item is out of stock and we do not know when it will be available again", I'm sure that sits well with Amazon buyers.

No response needed as I am just trying to give everyone a heads-up. This starts beginning of November (at least Amazon followed its 30-day written notice of changes policy this time).
