At 3 pm Beijing time on July 16, 2024, Amazon Prime Day, led by the United States, finally began!

The 48-hour shopping spree made many domestic and foreign sellers and buyers excited and unable to sleep all night.

In addition to the explosion of orders on Prime Day this year, sellers also encountered many strange bugs; despite this, it is worth being happy that many sellers in the Zhaodanmao seller communication group were still sharing their order status in the early morning!

Some sellers have just started a big sale and have already received dozens of orders a few moments ago. The overall order volume is 5 times higher than usual!

Amazon Prime Day was a blast on its first day?

Zhaodanmao Cross-border accompanies sellers on Membership Day every year and assists seller friends in operations and promotions. Sellers who need to join the seller exchange group, please contact customer service V: FLA66668888 . However, the sellers’ voices were clearly not felt on this year’s Membership Day, and the volume of their voices was several times less than before!

Of course, there are a few sellers whose performance has increased significantly. Next, Zhaodanmao will show you the performance display of different sellers:

On the first day of Membership Day in 2024, Zhaodanmao looked around on social media and seller communities and found that the number of sellers posting their orders had obviously decreased. I guess they were all secretly making a lot of money.

Some sellers also frankly shared that their membership day orders were only a dozen or twenty more than usual. Sellers who need to arrange off-site promotion of celebrity videos, please contact customer service V: FLA66668888. Some sellers even have zero orders!

What did everyone experience on this year's Amazon Prime Day? 👇

Seller A: Where is the explosion of orders? 📦❓“I didn’t feel anything about Member Day this year. There was no explosion of orders, nor was there an explosion of ads. In previous years, at least one of them would explode.

Seller B: The European market is quiet😴"Another day with zero orders. There is no movement in Europe. Did you forget to notify the buyers?" The European market seems to have fallen into a deep sleep this year and has not brought the expected order volume to sellers.

Seller C: Foreigners don’t stay up late to buy things? 🛏️“One order, foreigners don’t stay up late to buy things?

Seller D: Self-comfort: Americans are still sleeping🕰️ “Nothing happened. Now I have 0 orders. I comfort myself that Americans are sleeping and they will start buying as soon as they wake up.

In addition to the sales performance on Member Day that made many sellers sigh, what other weird Amazon bugs did everyone encounter during the promotion? Read on!

Today, Zhaodanmao just arrived at the company for work at 9 o'clock in the morning. When he turned on the computer, he found that the seller group was in an uproar!

Seller A said: I can’t access the ad backend, and I can’t send money to my brother-in-law🤣

Seller B said: My advertising budget should have been spent, but I can’t adjust the budget now, what should I do?

Many sellers said that the Amazon advertising backend page cannot be opened at all. The Amazon system has gone crazy again and there are bugs. Can everyone’s advertising backend page be opened now?

Malicious manipulation, sellers’ link rankings are forced to be downgraded

Many of the products that appear at the front of the search page are Amazon’s own products, while products from third-party sellers with high sales volumes are squeezed to the middle of the page.

Many sellers have reported that under normal circumstances, whether on a mobile phone or computer, the Best Seller search results are always at the top of the rankings. However, they have found that recently, products from several self-operated stores with average sales have moved to the first and second rows, while the products with the highest sales have been squeezed out by the self-operated stores!

Because the sales volume of Sold by Amazon is usually not high, the positions of other products are still in the same order as before. "

Some sellers reported that this was not caused by an Amazon bug, but rather Amazon deliberately supporting VC accounts and local brands! Therefore, they artificially manipulated the rankings and downgraded the Best Seller’s links!

According to Zhaodanmao, Amazon actually conducts similar "backroom operations" during Member Day every year to vigorously support its own products and local American brands.

And the products of third-party sellers were downgraded. However, in previous years, only the middle links were affected. This year, even the top links were not spared. It can only be said that Amazon has decided to show its cards and stop pretending!

How did everyone perform on the first day of Member Day this year? Who are the ultimate winners of Member Day: the platform, sellers, or consumers? Welcome to the comments section to share and discuss!
