The more stock you send to FBA centre the quicker your delivery times will be.

It can be for a variety of reasons. ASINs enrolled in Small & Light can have a longer delivery time, Amazon may be moving stock around their network (or doing something else with it) which can cause a temporary elongation and finally it can be because the items are too far away from the postcode you’re logged in with.

Yes the ASIN is marked as small and light.
its only 20grams, will it be better disenrol this item from SnL. If I do so then what is the impact on FBA Fees, or is it not much different from normal programme?

I would assume you had looked at the regular FBA fees before opting for S&L? FBA is more expensive, how much will depend on the exact dimensions.

Let me disenrol the sku now.
Will report back.

Absolute Genius. Thanks, Disenroled and (DrumRoll), 1 day delivery now shows on the listing.
I did check the fees, gone up to £1.56 from 80p and really we have low price product which makes our net to a dwindling sum but I just dont we will get any sales with offering Prime and 1 day. Might consider FBM…
Thanks TLS, really appreciate…

not to mention the refferal fee of 69p as well.

Switching to regular FBA seems like a rash decision. If the 3 day delivery was a significant issue then no one would use S&L.

I kind of agree with you, but I was really frustrated with spending more than a £1000 on PPC and not generating any orders. I got so many click throughs through PPC that I was drowning in Amazon Charges but not many converted to sales. my naive analysis is that the reason PPC was failing to convert into sales was the delivery timescales (shown as 3 days)

For many buyers the PRICE is more important than speed of delivery (up to a point).
Item ordered Monday for delivery Tuesday £5.00
Item ordered Monday for delivery Thursday £3.00
I know which one I would choose unless I actually NEEDED the item ASAP
