Marketplace⚡Mastery #104: Prime Exclusive Deals anytime, Amazon Manufacturing Central and more
Hey sellers! This week's all about new Amazon policies impacting your net margins
🛑 Attention Amazon Sellers
Feel like your sales have hit a wall? You’re not alone. Rising PPC costs, shrinking margins, lost listings, and TACoS creeping up… it’s a mess.
At Ecomcy, we’ve helped 1,000+ brands including Disney, Marvel, and Havaianas — clean up PPC, fix listings, and boost sales.

📰 What you need to know
👉 Amazon just made returns worse for sellers. So Amazon damaged your product in their warehouse? Now you get two terrible options:
Let Amazon sell it at whatever price they want.
Get $0 reimbursement AND pay removal fees to get your broken stock back.
Either way, you lose. Amazon profits.
👉 Amazon now lets you run Prime Exclusive Deals anytime, not just Prime Day. Honestly, this is silly. You create an extravaganza day, then it’s 2 days, then 4 days, now you just run PD deals forever? Man, stop it.
👉 Amazon wants to own your supply chain. They launched Manufacturing Central, a network of vetted Indian factories. It sounds “seamless,” but here’s the reality: if you hand Amazon your production, you’re giving them control over your entire business.
👉 Amazon expands same-day grocery delivery in 1,000+ US cities, expanding to 2,300 by the end of 2025.
Free for Prime on orders $25+.
$2.99 fee if under $25.
$12.99 for non-Prime.
With US consumers spending nearly $10B a month on online groceries, Amazon’s aiming to become your default digital supermarket. The impact? Walmart’s stock dropped 2%+ on the news, Instacart down 11%.
👉 Walmart adds Vietnam shipping route: their Cross Border service now ships from Ho Chi Minh City and Hai Phong to the US.
It’s the first time Walmart has opened routes outside China. Sellers can now move full-container loads directly into Walmart Fulfillment Services, diversifying away from China dependence.
