Dear Amazon.com Sellers,

Effective August 1, 2006, Amazon.com will change the variable closing fees and shipping credits for Books, Music, Video, DVD, Software and Video Game sales. These changes do not affect commission rates for Marketplace sales or the $0.99 closing fee charged to non-Pro Merchant sellers.

A full list of the changes compared with today’s rates is below. Here is a short summary of the changes:

1. A $1.20 closing fee will apply to all Books, Video Games and Software sales.

Note: This fee currently varies depending on the shipping method the buyer selected.

2. A $0.70 closing fee will apply to all Music, DVD and VHS sales.

Note: This fee currently varies depending on the shipping method the buyer selected.

3. The domestic expedited shipping credit for Books, Video Games and Software will increase from $5.49 to $5.99.

4. For Music, DVD and VHS sales, the domestic standard shipping credit will increase from $2.49 to $2.59, and the domestic expedited shipping credit will decrease from $4.99 to $4.59.

See the chart below to compare current shipping credits and variable closing fees with what will be charged as of August 1st.

Re: Amazon Changes Closing Fees for Books, CDs, DVDs; Changes Shipping Allowance
From the Amazon boards.  The effect on booksellers.  Booksellers gain 3 cents on standard shipping but will receive less for expedited and international orders.

Quote:For Books              Buyer            Amazon                Us

Standard        $3.49 ---> $3.49    $1.23 ---> $1.20    $2.26 ---> $2.29 Slight gain
Expedited      $5.49 ---> $5.99    $0.44 ---> $1.20    $5.05 ---> $4.79 Big loss
International    $9.79 ---> $9.79    $0.84 ---> $1.20    $8.95 ---> $8.59 Big loss

A definite fees increase for Amazon, at the expense of both buyers and sellers.

update:

Quote:Dear Amazon.com Sellers,

As you know, we recently announced some changes we will be making to the variable closing fees and shipping credits associated with Amazon Marketplace orders for Books, Music, Video, DVD, Software, and Video Games sales.  The announcement about those changes is available here:

http://www.amazonsellercommunity.com/for...dID=119844

We will be making one additional change to shipping credits which will impact Books sales with the international shipping option.  We will be increasing the shipping credit for international Books sales from $9.79 to $9.98.  An updated chart displaying the new shipping credits is available below.

Thank you for selling with Amazon.com.
