Amazon Commission Percentage
I was noticing my bank account diminishing lately, and finally looked at the amounts Amazon has been taking out of my sales for their sales commissions and found that the percentage seems to have climbed since last time I looked.
There is probably no way to negotiate with such a huge machine as Amazon, but I would like to have a strategy for remaining viable.
What is the algorithm upon which their cut is based? Is it a graduated scale like US Income Tax, and thus if my sales go up, does their percentage go up too?

FBA fees have gone up as well as a fee structure for every three months the product is in FBA warehouses. I would recommend looking up FBA fees in seller help or through google as google has a better search through seller help.
FBM fees have remained constant so far.

Fees are not the same in every category, but they have not changed. Look at your itemized payments to see where your money is going…

More likely the category has changed than the fee structure for referral fees has changed.

Go to Payments - Transaction View - click to total paid out to you on the left - This breaks it down.
I review this line by line every night to make sure everything is profitable.
