#651 – ANOTHER Amazon Fee Increase? and Big Spring Sale Live | Weekly Buzz 3/25/25 | Serious Sellers Podcast: Learn How To Sell On Amazon FBA & Walmart | Podwise
This episode explores recent Amazon fee increases and their impact on sellers. Against the backdrop of Amazon's earlier promise not to raise fees, the host analyzes a recent announcement detailing changes to deals and coupon fees. More significantly, the analysis delves into specific examples, comparing old and new pricing structures for different sales volumes of a sample product ("Coffin Shelf"). For instance, the host demonstrates how the new coupon fee structure, while introducing a $5 upfront fee, can be cheaper for lower-priced products but more expensive for higher-priced ones. The discussion then pivots to changes in lightning deals and best deals fees, showing how the new performance-based model can lead to savings for lower sales volumes but significant increases for higher volumes, potentially reaching a $2,000 cap. Finally, the episode touches upon the upcoming Amazon Big Spring Sale and speculation about a potential TikTok sale, concluding with a demonstration of new Helium 10 Black Box features designed to assist wholesale sellers and Amazon influencers.
