Is the MOQ applied per sku and not per ASIN?
For example, we list against an ASIN, another seller also lists on that ASIN. Can I list it with an MOQ of 3 and the other seller list a single item with no MOQ. How would that show on the product detail page?

Amazon, why can’t you just have a product page, with a buy now button, showing all teh sellers available. Keep it nice and simple. You’re making a right hash of this, you know that right?

Thanks for the ASIN where this can be seen in action. Echo the confusion though because on the help page it states to set up a MOQ offer, the following conditions must be met. “The offer’s standard selling price must be less than £10 on Amazon.co.uk (VAT-inclusive price).”
However, the ASIN in question is being sold by Amazon for £10.99 inc VAT.
Am I missing something? Surely not one rule for them…

It may be confusing for the customer if one seller sets a minimum order quantity on the ASIN and the other sellers selling the same product doesn’t ?

Lets say I have a minimum quantity of 3 but the buyer only wants 1. What’s to stop the buyer from buying the minimum quantity then returning 2 and if this was to happen, how will it affect my metrics?
Seller_sFEUMUfeW5484
As the price is for a single unit but you HAVE to buy 4, then for the purpose of winning the BB, their price should be assessed as 4xprice.
Also can a seller offer 4 x item and a single of the same item on the same ASIN, just using different skus?

We sell confectionary and this will help us. We can now offer at typical shop prices with a minimum order quantity and one shipping charge. Before we had to add shipping in with the price so say a Chocolate bar with flash on product of £1 had to be sold for £3.50. Now we can now sell MOQ @ 4 x 0.90p plus shipping of £2.50 total £7.10, before it would have been £14.00. It Works! customers understand the concept and order much more than MOQ in lots of cases. Shipping adjust upwards based on weight so if more Than the MOQ is ordered then still only one shipping charge

@Jessica Can I suggest that when Amazon post these announcements, that they hang around to answer the initial influx of questions.

If you want to sell “Prime” include the postage cost spread over the minimum order quantity. If you want to offer at really low price add a postage cost using a weight based shipping template

For a good while amazon have been selling a 21st birthday mug that I also sell, they put a minimum order of 3 on and charged £8 each, I didn’t and its one of my best sellers at £9.99. Not sure why anyone would want 3 birthday mugs at once unless they buy all friends the same present
