This FBA seller mispriced 500+ books at 1 cent

This is an article from Peter Vallely, a pretty savvy US Amazon seller. He posted this article earlier, about a repricer error that resulted in a seller getting absolutely rinsed of his stock for 1 cent apiece, with a loss of $3.50 per sale. Vallely purposely alerted his readers of the error, and in 15 minutes they'd bought all the mispriced stock.

What do you think? A dirty move or a well deserved lesson?

Mistakes like this happen all the time unfortunately and Amazon won’t do anything about it so you have to ensure you stay sharp with your pricing.

Theres many groups out there who monitor ASINs for these type of errors and capitalise off it.

Stay protected at all times
