Amazon Price Gouging Suspension Appeals

If Amazon suspended your account under its Fair Pricing Policy for alleged price gouging, AMZ Sellers Attorney® can help. We prepare attorney-supervised Plans of Action — with amendments and escalations — to appeal the suspension and work toward reinstatement.

Quick Answer: How do you appeal an Amazon price gouging suspension?

An Amazon price gouging suspension happens when Amazon's Fair Pricing Policy flags prices it considers excessively high — often during periods of high demand or emergencies, or as a side effect of product bundling or automated repricing left without oversight. Because Amazon positions itself as customer-centric, it acts quickly against pricing it views as harmful to buyers. To appeal, submit a Plan of Action that explains why the pricing occurred, documents the corrective pricing changes already made, and shows the review and monitoring controls that now keep your prices aligned with normal market conditions and Amazon's Fair Pricing Policy.

Fair Pricing Policy

Amazon's Fair Pricing Policy prohibits prices it considers excessively high, keeping the marketplace reasonable for buyers.

Common Triggers

Bundling products, automated repricing without oversight, and pricing well above market during high-demand periods.

Consequences

Account suspension, listing removal, reputational harm, and potential fines or penalties for serious violations.

The Appeal (POA)

A Plan of Action with explanation, corrective pricing action, prevention, and evidence is the route to reinstatement.

What Is Price Gouging on Amazon?

If you have been suspended for price gouging, you understand how detrimental it can be to your business. Price gouging is strictly prohibited on Amazon, and sellers must be vigilant to avoid any activity that could be interpreted as such. This can happen in various situations, including when sellers bundle two or more products together or use automated repricing programs without proper oversight. Price gouging suspensions also occur during periods of high demand — such as during the COVID-19 pandemic — when sellers who priced products significantly higher than the market rate faced account suspensions.

Amazon prides itself on being a customer-centric company and takes strict measures against any activity that harms customer interests. If your account has been suspended for price gouging, it is crucial to submit a well-prepared appeal that assures Amazon you will adhere to its Fair Pricing Policy going forward. Our experienced Amazon appeal consultants specialize in comprehensive Plans of Action, complete with amendments and escalations to higher management, for a fixed, non-refundable fee of $1,500.
