I’m trying to update the sourcing costs in the “Manage Your Sourcing Cost” section so Amazon can reimburse us based on what we actually pay for the products.
However, every time I enter my sourcing cost, Amazon rejects it. Has anyone dealt with this before? What can I do to get Amazon to accept the cost?
Ensure your sourcing cost matches supplier invoices and is consistent with past submissions. Avoid sudden large changes. If denied, open a Seller Support case, provide purchase proof, and request manual review.
Yes, this is a common issue and usually happens because Amazon requires documentation to verify the sourcing cost you’re entering, such as detailed invoices that clearly show the ASIN, quantity, price per unit, and supplier details. If you’re just entering the cost without uploading supporting documents or if the invoices don’t match Amazon’s format expectations, the system may reject your entry. Make sure your invoices are legible, ideally in PDF format, and include all relevant info tied directly to the ASIN.
To be honest, I’m not doing anything for now, too much of a headache, especially with the sourcing cost being denied. And I’m sure you’ve noticed that on many ASINs, Amazon is paying you more than your cost of goods.
Would you mind if I give you a recommendation?
