Amazon is too cruel! They charge over $1,000 for excess inventory storage fees...


Let’s start today’s main text.


◆ ◆ ◆ ◆



This year, various "dirty tricks" of Amazon have begun to emerge frequently. The US site has been constantly copying sales, and complaints have soared to an unprecedented level. The customs of the Japanese site has increased the control of low declarations, and malicious orders and category monopoly incidents have occurred frequently.


Recently, Amazon's warehouse restrictions have started to cause trouble again. A seller has received an email from Amazon's latest logistics team, which really scared him. Let's call this seller Xiao A for now.

The email showed that because Xiao A's IPI score was less than 500, Amazon would reduce his storage capacity limit from 258.9 cubic feet to 58.0 cubic feet for standard size, large items, apparel and shoes from August 16 to December 31.


At the same time, according to the standard of $10.00 per cubic foot for the average amount of inventory used that exceeds the storage capacity limit, Xiao A needs to pay a storage excess fee of up to $1071.49 (about RMB 7434) . He has to pay more than $1,000 in excess storage fees for half a month, and then look at the almost empty orders in the backend. Who can bear this!

After receiving this email, Xiao A was in tears. The sudden increase of more than one thousand US dollars in inventory storage excess fees was really too much for him to bear! As soon as Xiao A’s post for help came out, many sellers came out to speak up for Xiao A.


Some sellers are complaining madly...

Some sellers added fuel to the fire...


There are sellers who help Xiao A to analyze rationally and make moves...


There are also similar experiences...


It's really like "How the Richest Man Was Made - Storage Fees". If they continue like this, they will definitely have to eat dirt in the second half of the year. Sellers complained, "It's really too difficult..."




Tomorrow is August 16th, and the storage restrictions will come soon. Some sellers have posted their notifications, saying that their IPI scores have exceeded 500, which is considered to be up to standard . Some sellers are actively trying to improve their IPI scores, but it is difficult to meet the standard regardless of whether their sales volume is high or low, or whether they have sufficient inventory.


Therefore, many sellers said: "It is no exaggeration to say that this is a 'college entrance examination' for Amazon sellers . Once this policy is released, sellers with good sales will get better, and sellers with poor sales will get worse, and may even be eliminated. It can be said that it is very unfriendly to small sellers, especially novice sellers ."


The next important node, Black Friday, is coming. If small sellers want to be less affected by the warehouse storage policy, they must seize the opportunity of this year-end peak season and increase their sales during the peak season. Otherwise, like Xiao A mentioned above, they may be dragged down by the high warehouse storage fees and be eliminated by Amazon .

Before the peak season at the end of the year, we were called upon by the majority of sellers to hold an offline exchange meeting on the Black Friday double peak season in Shenzhen on August 30th , specifically to share how to buck the trend and win in the double peak season . With the gradual increase in promotion efforts, the number of offline people has shown a trend of being full .
