I heard! Amazon may start paying for its warehouse space?

Recently, a seller heard that Amazon will allow paid purchase of storage capacity after January 10 , so he consulted a business manager about this matter and soon got a reply that "it will be announced on the 10th and implemented on March 1st." It also said that there will be an inventory bidding tool later.

The new storage capacity policy will begin around March this year, when Amazon will open up the purchase of storage capacity services. The official announcement time is January 10. The specific purchase method is uncertain, but it should be directly operated in the background, using a model similar to advertising bidding.

At present, a framework can be seen in the background , as shown below

In addition, the existing expansion services may be cancelled or the review may be more stringent;

IPI will be changed to monthly assessment, and regular Amazon inventory can basically only be kept for 3 months, but it can be expanded. The seller lamented: "Amazon's sickle is getting faster and faster."

Since the beginning of this year, Amazon has continued to reduce its warehouse space and staff. It is conceivable that there is great pressure on warehousing, so the platform has been tightening its storage capacity, but because the amount of shipments continues to decrease, many sellers have complained. After all, before the epidemic, no one thought that even "shipping freedom" would become a luxury.

Next, if Amazon releases its storage capacity in a paid form, there will inevitably be resistance among the seller community.

Regarding the new policy, several PPT contents have been leaked.

Information shows that after the policy change on March 1, only storage restrictions will be implemented. Factors taken into consideration include historical expected sales, inventory storage capacity and IP score. Only volume will be measured, and the calculation method is inventory in transit + inventory in stock, which will be updated monthly. If the limit is exceeded, excess storage fees will be charged and shipment creation will be stopped.
