The Match Low Price feature
helps you quickly and easily match the current lowest prices on Amazon for the products
you offer. "Current lowest price" is
based on your Manage Pricing details in Manage Inventory, which
allows you to compare offers using the following variables:
-
Listing condition (based on the Condition Guidelines)
-
All listings, regardless of
condition.
-
Only listings in the same condition.
For example, New or Used.
-
Only listings in the same
sub-condition. For example, Used-Like New, or Used-Very Good.
-
Fulfillment method (whether Fulfillment by
Amazon or seller-fulfilled)
-
All listings, regardless of
fulfillment method.
-
Only listings with the same
fulfillment method as your listing.

Troubleshoot Match Low Price
Match Low Price
considers all active listings on Amazon, including products sold by Amazon. However, it
might be unavailable for some listings for any of the following reasons:
-
Your shipping charge is equal to or greater
than the lowest price.
-
For example, you list an item for R$
1,00 plus R$ 3,00 shipping. Seller B lists the same item for 50 cents plus R$
2,50 shipping. Your shipping charge alone (R$ 3,00) is equal to Seller B's
total cost (R$ 3,00). Therefore, you cannot match the lowest price without
first reducing your shipping charges.
-
The listing has an active sale.
-
Match Low
Price does not consider offers with active sale events.
-
Either remove the sale or apply
Match Low
Price after the sale ends.
-
The listing does not have a shipping
charge.
-
This might be because your listing is
inactive.
-
This is not the same as configuring
your pricing settings not to display shipping.
Shipping settings can also
affect Match Low Price
-
If you configured your shipping settings
based on price bands, shipping charges will not be displayed and Match Low Price will be
based only on item price.
-
If you configured your preferences not to
display the shipping charge, Match Low Price will be based only on item price.
How Match Low Price works
This example illustrates
more about how Match Low
Price works.
You have a listing for a product that is in "Used-Like New" condition. The listing is seller-fulfilled for a price of R$ 26,00 + R$ 5,50 shipping (Listing 2 in the chart below). Your Customer Feedback rating is 93%, and your handling time is 48 hours. There are three other listings on Amazon for the same product. Referring to the chart below, the current lowest price would be selected as follows:
-
Listing 1 (R$ 29,00): Displays
if your Low Price Comparison preferences are set to compare offers in all conditions
and, all fulfillment methods.
-
Listing 3 (R$ 29,50): Displays
if your Low Price Comparison preferences are set to compare offers in the same
condition and, all fulfillment methods.
-
Listing 4 (R$ 30,00): Displays
if your Low Price Comparison preferences are set to compare offers in the same
sub-condition and same fulfillment method.
