Zero-dollar purchase is here again,
The seller's heart is cold!
Recently, many sellers have reported that the product prices of many European sites have been mistakenly adjusted to ultra-low prices, resulting in a large number of goods being snapped up overnight!
"Other sites showed high pricing, changed to 8.99, and then Turkey issued more than 60 yuan according to 8 yuan"
"It was synchronized to Turkey, and the inventory was run out of seconds, asking for support"
"1 Turkish dollar, out of 300 orders, is opening a case, speechless"
The reason why there is a large-scale "0 yuan purchase" is because there is a bug in the Amazon system!
Many sellers made mistakes due to bugs when synchronizing product prices across sites, and the system automatically changed them to ultra-low prices, resulting in a large number of goods being seconds overnight.
For example, if you sell 99.99 € in Germany, it will cost 99.99₺ in Turkey, which is 2.85 €, 1 Turkish dollar = 0.029 €
Among them, the phenomenon of "0 yuan purchase" on Amazon Turkey is the most widespread!
After the seller found out, the sellers quickly took measures to open the case, remove the product from the shelves, and find the customer service manager to cancel the order to minimize the loss of the store.
But the effect is very small, and only a small number of orders can be recovered, and countless cases are not unsolvable, and the price of the customer service manager is also very expensive.
Although Amazon has responded that the relevant technical team is already repairing the system, most sellers have suffered huge financial losses as a result.
In addition, some sellers have begun to apply for claims to the platform, to which Amazon has responded that it has contacted the internal team and is expected to be processed within 7-12 working days.
How can I avoid price errors?
- In Europe, "comma" is used as the decimal point, and if the seller uses "dot" as the decimal point, the price will be set too high, resulting in the listing being suspended
- Different sites may have ultra-low prices due to different exchange rates, so before setting the price, determine the exchange rate of the site currency, and then set it after calculation
- Set the maximum purchase amount
- Once you've adjusted your price, be sure to go to the front desk to check if it's successful, and keep an eye on the order volume for a few hours
