Amazon's flash sale rules have been updated again? The running flash sale can no longer adjust the inventory! Backstage control of LD progress is a thing of the past

My C position
This year's flash sale rules are updated quite frequently
  1. At the beginning of the year, the service provider's BD submission was closed, and it was no longer possible to submit BD for products only through LD.

  2. In the first two weeks, you can set inventory for the product during BD and display the progress bar

Today, I ran LD for several products at the same time, and found that I could not increase the inventory. The number of products "confirmed to participate" turned gray and could not be edited during the flash sale. In other words, LD will not be able to control the progress in real time through the background in the future.
 
There will be fewer and fewer unfixed bugs left for flash sales, so run and cherish them.

AM’s original words:
Regarding the issue of BD setting quantity, the manager suggested setting the progress bar according to the actual inventory of ASIN or not setting the quantity and running the activity according to the previous mode. Some sellers want to modify the quantity in real time to create a false impression that this ASIN is very popular and stimulate consumers to place orders, which is an abuse of the rules. We are still waiting for the official manual released by Amazon in the United States to reflect more details.



My ears can't hear anymore

The original words of the payment manager: There has been a deal policy update recently. Currently, the quantity of LD/BD cannot be modified during the process. We can pay attention to it. We have also received a lot of feedback from sellers and have confirmed with the internal colleagues. We will try to fill in more quantity before the start (refer to the actual situation). We have a customer who loses money when the 7-day BD is changed to half a day.

The flash sale I bid today has turned grey and cannot be modified. So according to Amazon policy, is modifying the flash sale inventory an Amazon bug?



Nothing but handsomeness

Original words from the payment manager: This is a new bug. Recently, many sellers have reported that the quantity cannot be modified during BD/LD activities. This will be fixed in the near future.

Where did you see this policy? Can you point me in the right direction?
