Amazon FBA is a service launched by Amazon e-commerce platform, which is similar to jd.com's self-service in China. Amazon has opened many FBA warehouses around the world, which are shipped by Amazon. Sellers need to send their products to Amazon's pre assigned warehouse first. After warehousing, a series of services such as packaging, delivery, distribution, return and exchange of subsequent products are solved by Amazon itself, and sellers don't have to worry.

There is no free lunch. Accordingly, Amazon will charge the seller. Because the cost of Amazon FBA is not fixed, the charge is not fixed, which mainly depends on the seasonality, storage, type and size of goods and various other factors.

1、 Storage fee

Amazon FBA storage fee is divided into monthly storage fee and long-term storage fee.

The monthly storage fee is mainly related to the season and the size and category of goods. Generally speaking, the storage fee of small goods is lower. But they need more complex and expensive shelves, drawers and dustbins to store, which costs more than large items, and the storage of dangerous goods is higher than that of non dangerous goods.

Long term storage fee is a monthly long-term storage fee in addition to the monthly inventory storage fee. The long-term storage fee is assessed using the inventory on the 15th of each month. The FBA system implements the principle of first in and first out, which is also fair to the seller.

2、 Inventory clearance fee

If the seller decides not to use FBA, there will be a fee for deleting the goods information from their inventory center. If Amazon wants to return the goods, they will charge us $0.50-0.60 per item, mainly depending on the volume of the goods.

3、 Commodity distribution fee

Charging by piece mainly depends on the volume and weight of the goods. The delivery fee for standard size products (products weighing less than 20 pounds or less than 18x14x8 inches) ranges from $2.41 for less than one pound to $4.71 for more than two pounds, and an additional $0.38 is required for each product exceeding two pounds. Amazon storage

For super large products (more than 18x14x8 inches), the starting price of small and extra large products is $8.13 (more than 70 pounds, with a maximum length of 60 inches), and the charge for the first two pounds is $0.38 per pound.

The starting price of finished products for special super large products (more than 150 pounds or the maximum length is more than 108 inches) is $137.32, and more than 90 pounds is charged at $0.91/pound.

4、 Return expense

Because Amazon provides free return service for buyers, clothing, watches, jewelry and other categories can enjoy free return, and the freight is also borne by the seller.

5、 Penalty fee

Amazon has very strict requirements for sellers. For example, if the seller's label is not pasted properly, Amazon will directly prohibit the sale of this product and charge additional fines. Amazon storage
