Amazon has announced a reduction in seller fees, but exclusively for clothing items priced under $20. Starting in January, apparel priced under $15 will see a dramatic decrease in seller fees from 17% to 5%. For clothing items between $15 and $20, the fee is adjusted to 10%. This change marks a significant departure from Amazon’s previous increase in seller fees for clothing, which went up to 17% from 15% back in April 2018. Business analysts speculate that this fee reduction is Amazon’s strategy to better compete with low-cost fashion retailers like Shein.
