d*******h 发帖数: 5065 | 1 Many people mistakenly believe that Buy.com’s marketplace can not contend
with channels like Amazon or eBay. Regardless of what people may believe Buy
is a major player in the eCommerce market and regularly does over 50
million in yearly sales. Because of their success as a sales channel Buy has
attracted some big league sellers offering a wide range of products.
Recently, Buy.com has been surveying Amazon and eBay sellers about their use
of Amazon’s FBA service, or Fulfillment By Amazon, in preparation for the
launch of its own fulfillment service. The survey asked sellers about their
experience using Amazon FBA, including whether or not they use it for non-
Amazon.com orders. Buy.com also inquired about fulfillment fees for Multi-
channel items fulfilled by Amazon compared to typical Amazon orders.
Some of the specific questions covered were:
Did you attempt to negotiate with Amazon to get a discount off of their
published FBA Multi-channel rate card?
Does Amazon give you a discount off of their published Multi-Channel rate
card?
How much do you save using FBA Multi-channel fulfillment compared to self or
other fulfillment services (e.g. 20%)?
If you currently do not use Multi-channel fulfillment by FBA, how much could
you save by switching to FBA Multi-Channel fulfillment (e.g. 20%)?
Buy.com also asked sellers who use Amazon FBA how much of a sales increase
they get on FBA items. The survey also asked sellers who are not using
Fulfillment by Amazon for multi-channel fulfillment their reasons why, in
hopes of finding the top reasons to switch to FBA multi-channel fulfillment,
including the responses such as cost, reliability, customer experience and
security.
Buy.com is hoping to launch the new fulfillment service this spring. With
five warehouses across the United States, this program would most likely be
similar to Amazon.com’s FBA program and include multi-channel shipping.
Buy.com has already begun pitching sellers on the fulfillment services by
saying it could increase their sales by two to three times.
Savvy eCommerce merchants will have noticed that Buy.com recently redesigned
their home page to showcase third-party merchants providing increased
exposure to the vendors who sell on Buy. With the soon to be FBB system and
the concerted effort to promote their third-party merchants this is an
excellent time for any online seller to look into the potential of selling
on Buy.com. | a*****n 发帖数: 14370 | 2 范冰冰?
