Amazon Offers Retailers Special Fulfillment Pricing for High-End Items
By Ina Steiner

June 18, 2010




In April, Amazon launched a new pricing tier for its Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) service. For items selling for over $500 and not exceeding a certain size, merchants pay zero fulfillment fees. All other fees still apply, including storage fees and Selling on Amazon fees. Fulfillment fees that are waived include Order Handling, Pick & Pack, and Weight Handling fees.

Products must be standard-sized items that fit within a space measuring 18" x 14" x 8" and weigh less than 20 pounds including unit packaging.

Information about Amazon.com's regular FBA pricing is found on this page, and the new special pricing is found on this page.

Interest in the FBA program continues to grow as it can help sellers to gain exposure on Amazon's "buy box" and through Amazon's free-shipping programs, such as Prime.
