Updated this week

You can preset Price List Analyzer configurations in your personal account in Seller Assistant.

To configure Price List Analyzer settings go to Tools/Price List Analyzer section and choose Cost Settings.

Then choose a specific Amazon marketplace where all these settings will be applied.

Notes

Preset configurations will be applied only to the selected Amazon marketplace. For different marketplaces you have to preset different calculator configurations.

Only marketplaces supported by Keepa are available for selection. You can find a list of these marketplaces in this article.

Configure the following settings on this page:

  • Selling Price Calculation Method – select how your profit will be calculated. There are four options to chose from:

    • Current BuyBox Price – by default

    • Average BuyBox Price for 30 days

    • Average BuyBox Price for 90 days

    • Average BuyBox Price for 180 days

  • Configure expenses for FBA and FBM logistics by switching between FBA and FBM in the same way as in the Extension Settings:

    • Shipping Cost per kg (or per pound for amazon.com)

    • Shipping Cost per item

    • General Prep – cost of packaging or repackaging of goods, labeling

    • Fragile Prep – additional packaging for fragile goods or other costs for fragile goods (e.g. bubble wrapping)

    • Hazmat Fee – extra charge for products classified as hazardous materials

    • Oversize Fee – extra charge for products that are larger or heavier than standard limits

    • Inbound Placement Service Fee – the drop-down menu allows you to select Optimized shipment splits, Minimal shipment splits or Partial shipment splits (if available).

    Measurements and currency are automatically changed depending on the selected Amazon marketplace

    The cost of shipping the item can be configured in the settings separately for FBA and FBM models. Calculated by the formula:

    FBA Shipping Costs = Actual Item Weight * FBA Shipping Cost per Pound + FBA Shipping Cost per Piece

    FBM Shipping Costs = Actual Item Weight * FBM Shipping Cost per Pound + FBM Shipping Cost per Piece

    Costs for preparation, labeling, packaging and fees are specified in the settings separately for FBA and FBM models.

  • Configure VAT, Taxes, Digital Service Fee and Additional Expenses settings. Additional Expenses allow you to add extra costs per item:

    • Misc Fee Rate – a percentage of COG

    • Misc Fee – a fixed amount
