Dear Amazon Community,
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring attention to a pressing issue that many of us sellers face: the exorbitant shipping costs imposed by UPS and Amazon partner carriers for small parcel deliveries.
As a seller with a range of products, including batches of 100 to 200 items per shipment, I have noticed a significant increase in fees across various categories. These include regional fees, delivery charges, and inbound transportation costs, which collectively add a substantial burden to our operational expenses.
While we understand the complexities of logistics and the need for fair pricing, the current structure disproportionately affects smaller sellers like myself. It limits our ability to offer competitive pricing and hampers our profitability on the platform.
I urge Amazon and its carrier partners to reconsider these pricing policies and explore more cost-effective solutions for small parcel deliveries. Lowering these fees would not only benefit individual sellers but also contribute to a more vibrant marketplace where all sellers, regardless of size, can thrive.
I invite fellow sellers who share this concern to join the discussion and share your experiences. Together, we can advocate for fair and reasonable shipping policies that support the growth of our businesses on Amazon.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. Let’s work towards a solution that benefits sellers and enhances the overall selling experience on Amazon.
