We've updated our profit calculator a couple weeks ago thanks to a customer suggestion. He needed a way to input his other costs, such as shipping, taxes, and fees so he could see his total cost and get a more accurate view of his profits. He also asked if we could provide a way to display the profit as a column in the listings table and be able to select the type of profit data to show.

We thought all these are a great idea and something that our other customers would find useful as well so we took care of it right away.

You can see in the screenshot above that in addition to your acquisition cost, you can now also input your tax rate, the Amazon referral fee percentage, your actual shipping cost, and other fees that may apply. Below the fields, you can then see in real …

You requested them and we listened!

We've added an optional Cost field to the product listings of our Amazon repricer as requested by some of our customers. You can enter your cost in bulk via CSV upload or manually on the same page where you assign your strategy and min/max prices.

On the main listings page, when you hover your mouse over your landed price, you will also now see a tooltip showing you your cost and profit as shown in the screenshot above.

To save you time from doing calculations in your head or opening another application, we've also added a profit/loss calculator!

If you've entered a value in the Cost field, we'll instantly show you your profit based on the listing's current landed price and what your profit would be based on your min/max prices. You'll see the values change instantly as you type.

Another benefit of entering …

Main Differences between Repricers:

The main differences are ease of use, reliability, price, in-built pricing rules, advanced features like being able to exclude certain sellers i.e. FBA or non FBA and the ability for the repricer to intelligently reprice up as well as down (this is vital as it is the way you increase profits at the same time as increasing sales).

Web Based vs. Downloadable Program: You may also notice that some repricers are downloadable programs rather than being web based. By the very nature of Amazon being an online business in the cloud it is best to …
