How to pricing in amazon, if amazon seller fees is high for small sellers?
I am so much confused with amazon . my question is how sellers including amazon fees with their mrp .for example . a product cost is 100 rupees in mrp . if they include amazon fees in mrp . the product price is also raise. or we need to raise the shipping / fulfillment charges .otherwise if we list with 100 rupees . amazon will deduct 13% fees then there is no profit . big sellers has no problem. they are getting the products in discount may be bulk wholesale price . whatever . any one clear me this ? if i am wrong please correct me . this is a big issue … may be other sellers sell their product in below mrp how do they do it ? some books authors are selling price is included amazon fees . is it legal to do that ? because books back cover price is lesser than its listed price . So can we then list the price of the book include in all fees?

Nobody will answer you because everyone know that as a seller you are loosing your money. This platform is absolutely not for samll sellers just like you an me.
I am a book seller as a part time I started this, I just sold a book today in a profit of 5 rupee which is actually a shame.
You make sure you double check the fees if they are charging you correct amount or not and my advise to you is only sell niche products.

Dear Ebook Techie
To sell on amazon you need to
include all this in a product to get profit.
CP+Amazonfee+Shipping+closingfee+ Your profit = Sell Price
And also you have to include some % of returns in this fee , as there are all chances that you will get returns.
and in returns your shipping fee and some small fee will not get waived.
each and every seller on amazon has to go by the same rule to make profit.

Yes, it is a big concern. Totally helpless. Tried all ways to get some profit. The disapponting fact is if we are selling similar products as that of manufacturers/big players we are at loss and due to our pricing to recover cost price + Amazon fees, we loose in the competition as well. Hoping a better platform comes, so that we can quit Amazon at the earliest.
