My brother-in-law has a change of heart! Sellers are exempted from Amazon flash sale fees!

My brother-in-law has a change of heart! Sellers are exempted from Amazon flash sale fees!


“July 1 is coming soon, and the postage for small and light express shipments into the US may soar by 100%!

Amazon’s US warehouses were overwhelmed, and many sellers reported that they were unable to put their products on the shelves for a long time after signing for them.

Amazon Japan announced that the number of incoming deliveries exceeded expectations and incoming shipments will be delayed.


The logistics price will increase again, but the goods are delayed in listing. Many sellers are in tears because the listing is out of stock. Some sellers even complained that they had given birth to their second child, but the goods were not yet on the shelves.


The seller couldn't help but wonder loudly: Is there no Lay's? Oh, sorry, Lay's hasn't been very happy recently either.


Actually, it is not the case. Some sellers said in the communication group: My AMZ flash sale fees on the US site have been waived recently! ! ! Do you guys want to try it too?

Hesitation will lead to failure, decisiveness will lead to failure!


Subsequently, many sellers were eager to give it a try. After trying it, some sellers gave feedback: in addition to the US site, the flash sale fees on the UK and German sites were also waived.


I cried, my brother-in-law finally found his conscience!



Multiple sellers posted screenshots of flash sale exemptions


In the seller communication group, a seller posted a screenshot of his flash sale exemption and asked: What does exempted mean? Does it mean no charge? (Are you really not here to attract hatred?)


It is reported that the seller said that he had applied for a flash sale, but later found that the flash sale fee was waived! Then, the seller made up for it: he applied for a flash sale twice, both of which were waived.

Subsequently, several sellers posted screenshots of their flash sale fees being waived.


A seller said that all three of his products in the home category were included in the flash sale, but it turned out that all three were exempted!

Some sellers even said: Activities submitted before March and those reported recently are all exempted. Do you feel like you have lost 100 million?


It turns out that one day, sellers can also make money from their brother-in-law. Many sellers still find it hard to believe: Just treat it as a dream, and I am still moved after waking up for a long time...

You have to know that it costs $150 to apply for a flash sale, which is a heavy number for many sellers!


After all, the financial conditions of many sellers, oh no, the number of orders, simply do not allow them to engage in such high-spending behavior.

In addition to the exemption of flash sales fees, many sellers said that they really tasted the sweetness of flash sales! Product exposure and sales have increased visibly, especially sellers with overstocked inventory said that the pressure was instantly relieved.


Some sellers even said that they had a Canadian competitor who had been running a flash sale for a month, and then he went from being a competitor to being the Amazon quoter. Is this the gap between the rich and the poor in Amazon?

Why is there a flash sale fee exemption?


Some sellers said: It turns out that I am not worthy, as if everyone in the world except me has received the flash sale fee exemption.



Later, a seller explained that the flash sale fee was waived because they received a relevant email.


The email stated: We temporarily reduced product visibility for some transactions. As a result, we did not charge you for transactions that ended between [Sunday of the previous week] and [Saturday of the previous week].

Obviously, the reason for the exemption of flash sale fees is that Amazon has increased its exposure to traffic for products such as daily necessities during the epidemic, so now it is providing corresponding subsidies to other categories.


So it seems that free is only available to sellers who receive it via email?


However, some sellers said that they did not receive any emails, but were shown as exempt after participating.

So a seller opened a case and got the reply: Please refer to the notification on the flash sale page. Sellers who have received the fee exemption notification on the flash sale page or received the flash sale fee exemption email can do it for free. Sellers who have not received the notification or the email will still pay the flash sale fee.

Therefore, the flash sale exemption is not completely effective for all sellers on all sites. The final result is still subject to the notification on the flash sale page.


It is not yet clear how long this flash sale exemption event will last, so sellers should not blindly follow the trend and report flash sales.


Sellers who wish to enjoy the exemption from flash sales can leave a message in the comment area: which site they are on, what category they operate in, and how many times they have been exempted from flash sales.


In this way, sellers in the same category can also have some references and then decide whether to join in the fun!
